Meet Mr. Corbeaux, he and his friends can usually be spotted loitering at our county's hospitals and morgues.
The practice of touting/canvassing by Funeral Homes is an unethical and disgraceful SCAM. This practice takes advantage of bereaved persons for monetary gain. The Canvassers or Funeral Home Touts at the hospitals and morgues approach families who have experienced a loss and make outrageous claims and quote unrealistic prices for service. When families are scammed into patronizing these unscrupulous funeral service providers the price is tripled and when the family tries to move their loved one to another funeral service provider they are charged high penalties. These penalties are so high that some families can't afford to pay the penalties and the funeral cost, this results in some families staying with the unscrupulous funeral homes and receiving poor quality service at elevated prices. Other families are simply charged more money for products and services that are not worth the cost.
The Association of Funeral Professionals of Trinidad and Tobago seeks to regulate the conduct of all funeral service providers in Trinidad and Tobago. The Association is currently working with The Trinidad and Tobago Bureau of Standards with backing for certain Government Ministers to create legislation to regulate the conduct of the Funeral Service Profession in Trinidad and Tobago.
The Association asks for your help by signing our petition to show Public Support for the cause of protecting our citizens from unscrupulous Funeral Service Providers.
