The service I'm being offered is also meant to mean you don't need solicitors involved when executing the will or something so there's a large cost saving there (that I won't care about coz I'll be dead, but also saves drama for the partner or executors).
They sell it like it's a cheaper alternative to involving solicitors which could cost up to 5% of everything. Plus there's the free lifetime updates and stuff, not that that's going to happen much.

administering a will doesn't really require a solicitor, it is just a bit time consuming that's all. Further up this thread you'll see that my dad died. I'm a solicitor but my sister and brother were thhe executors of his will. I didn't need to be called upon to do anything. Personally I wouldn't be minded to have that level of service.
As for obtining a will they aren't usually expensive unless you are doing something funky. Most require information as to carving outspecific gifts to persons. (£100 to nellie, my fixie skidder to my son etc) then usially the residuary to the main beneficiary. Anything else you'd like doing which doesn't relate to your estate division goes in a letter of wishes uch as spread my ashes on the Tourmalet or suchlike
That sounds like a con to me.. .
