The Hidden Fees in Burial Plans

After twelve years of payments, a Kentucky resident finally covered the cost of his burial plan, or did he? Shortly after making the last payment, he began receiving more bills for hidden fees that will cost him another estimated $3,000. Come to find out, these hidden fees were in fine print on the original contract. The funeral director told the Kentucky man that taxes and internment fees were not included because they were future services that would need to be paid on the side.
