Boxes go missing and don’t arrive

Boxes go missing and don’t arrive, quality is hit and miss with ingredients, customer service can’t speak english. At least they take accountability and refund the items. But then again, i have no food so i have to spend twice as much at the shops to live on for the week.

Hello Not So Fresh

The standard of the food has gone downhill since we last had this a few years ago. None of the veg seems fresh and arrives on it's last legs and some of the meat only has a couple of days use by, which is no good for a week plan.
Customer service is non existent and so unhelpful once they have you signed up.

Absolutely awful customer service

Absolutely awful experience with HelloFresh. I had been a loyal customer for over 6 years and had recommended them to multiple family members, all of whom have now cancelled after seeing how this was handled.
There had already been issues recently with missing ingredients, poor delivery service, and problems with the app, but last week was the final straw.
I updated my order days before delivery, changed all of my meals, and reduced my box from 5 meals to 4. Despite this, HelloFresh delivered 5 completely different pre-selected meals that I never chose.
When I contacted customer service, one advisor claimed they could see timestamps proving I selected the meals but refused to provide any evidence before abruptly ending the chat. Another advisor then completely contradicted this and claimed I had not logged into my account for two weeks, despite me offering to prove otherwise.
Instead of properly investigating what was clearly either a system issue or ordering error, they simply blamed the customer and shut down the complaint. They even advised that they had received feedback from customers the app had not been working correctly.
Customer service was dismissive, unhelpful, and more interested in ending chats than resolving the issue. Very disappointing experience and I’ve now completely lost trust in the company. I’d strongly recommend taking screenshots of every order change you make because if something goes wrong, they will not admit fault.

Shocking company

Shocking company. No warning money is about to be taken from your account, way too much packaging, delivery is terrible- sometimes do not ring the bell and leave boxes on the step to be stolen- literally no follow up when you complain about broken items and stolen boxes: I have lost 4 boxes and had 3 severely damaged.
Would never recommend. Much better alternative companies out there.

Bad customer service, Not worth the hasstle

Cancelled my HelloFresh account and switched to Gusto, then randomly started receiving boxes again weeks later. No money was ever taken from my account for these deliveries, which makes it even clearer they weren’t properly authorised orders. I called and asked for deliveries to stop, yet another box still arrived anyway. Now I’ve received a £60 debt collector letter from them for food I never ordered. Spoke to customer service again today and they said there’s nothing they can do. Absolutely unacceptable customer service and billing practices.

Missing items

Missing items. Beans from one meal, peas from another in the same order. It's meant to make cooking more convenient not less.

Edit: Thanks for the reply, but to be honest I don't want a voucher or whatever. I work long hours, I'm a carer for my mother, I wanted reliable complete ingredients so I could make meals quickly without having to go to the shops to buy missing items. My experience was that quite often ingredients are missing. The last straw was having missing ingredients in BOTH meals, so I couldn't even make one.

Be very careful you don’t re-activate a dormant account by entering a discount code.

I previously held a Hello Fresh subscription and thought they were an organisation with integrity, seems I was mistaken or they never were.

I hadn’t ordered for a very long time, but a discount code was posted to me, so I thought I’ve nothing to lose by seeing what’s available. Unfortunately, that is no longer true.

I found out by pure chance, as I checked my bank account last night. I have a delivery arriving tomorrow, of meals I didn’t choose, because I entered the discount code. Just entering that code actually, triggered a subscription to be activated.

HELLO FRESH, is sending me random meals tomorrow, ones I would never have chosen and charged my bank account for the privilege. No email information, I had triggered a re-activation of a dormant account.

Please be very aware and wary of this organisation. I’ve managed to speak to someone and ended my subscription and cancel all future orders and communication, but it seems it’s my fault, it’s just the way their system works.

I’m so disappointed, and certainly would never recommend.

Dear Pauline,

Thank you for taking time to leave a review. It's disappointing to hear you were not happy with our service 😔

HelloFresh is an auto-renewing subscription service that you manage yourself. To ensure we can provide the freshest ingredients and reduce food waste, we order specific quantities from our suppliers only after our weekly deadline passes. If you don't manually choose your meals by the deadline, we'll automatically select meals for you based on your account preferences.

The deadline for any changes is always 11:59 PM, five days before your scheduled delivery date.

To allow us to make it right this time, please get in touch with our Customer Care team by following this link https://www.hellofresh.co.uk/contact-us or call us on 020 7138 9055. Our team provides round-the-clock support.

Thank you for being our customer!

Not impressed will be cancelling my subscription

Item missed which credit was applied to my account but since realised another item was missing when I started to cook one of the meals. By day 3 my veggies were looking like the poor forgotten shriveled up left overs you get in the back of the fridge and my aubergine was thick with a white mould. Didn't enjoy 2 of the meals. I will be cancelling the subscription amd trying elsewhere. The only positive I would give is the portion sizes are really good.

Fantastic recipes and great quality ingredients. Really inspired me to get more active in the kitchen as well. Tasty and very satisfying meals. We have been doing this for 4 or 5 weeks and we are absolutely loving it.

I should also compliment the delivery drivers who are always so polite and friendly - which isn't always the case these days.

Great quality food, great quality service!

Safeplace instructions were ignored

Safeplace instructions were ignored - and I'm told delivery was done by their own (new) delivery group. These instructions are provided so that my box is still waiting for me when I get home. Refunded quickly, but hadn't planned to go back out to do a food shop after getting home from work.
