I accidentally clicked on a meal that had something in it that I didn't eat, however I missed the deadline and Alex F., was able to give me a credit towards my next order

I just had a chat with Alex F. I had a problem with an order that I wasn't supposed to receive (my fault). Alex was kind enough to rectify the matter. I'm glad I got to chat with him. He took care of my problem in a short amount of time. I hope all your employees are as knowledgable as Alex. Thank you for your time!
Awesome! Thank you for your feedback about Alex's service and I'm happy to share this with the rest of the team and to Alex. We're committed to providing excellent service so this will inspire the team to do more!
Fairly new customer. I for one really like the service. I don't get a lot of cooked meals at home, so unless I go out, not really eating well. I think the dishes are cooked very well, and the potions are good. I like most the meals with a few exceptions, but that is just my personal taste. If I were to say one thing they can do, it would be to add a bit more flavor to some meals. It seems they are playing it safe. Nothing really spicy to speak of, even if expecting it to be. I had one issue with the wrong meal being sent, but customer service responded quickly and with a fair solution.
Hello Tim, I truly appreciate your fair feedback and insights about our service. This will greatly help others, so thank you for your time! All in all, every bit of information we receive in any regard - no matter how large or small; good or bad - is an opportunity for us to gain the knowledge of what our customers are looking for from us. So, I'll be more than happy to share this with our team as we don't stop exploring ideas and feedback about our meals and to better improve them.

I travel a lot so I could not consume the meals on the established schedule. I contact Reg via chat and he explained that I can skip a week here and there but due to my fluid schedule we could not adjust deliveries in such a way. We decided to cancel the subscription for when I am travelling and reactivate when I am back home throughout the year.
Reg was very efficient and knowledgeable…. A pleasure to work with.
Thank you for sharing this, Rick! I'm overjoyed to hear Reg was very efficient and knowledgeable! It would be my pleasure to share your review with her!

Kenny is so nice help me cancelling an order which I should un-skip. Since I am in China, it is hard for me to receive any order from freshly. But if I get back to U. S, I would definitely choose freshly again.

For me, the beef and chicken were not moist enough. These compared to what can be store bought.
The site was easy to use and polite people when I cancelled.
I know of people who liked the food, I did not.

Answer: Hi Marc, Thanks for your inquiry! At this time we change one meal per week, typically. We will either remove an item and replace with something new, update the recipe on a current item or just add an item without removing one. As we continue to grow we will have plans to offer even more variety as well!
Answer: Hi Steven, Thank you for your interest in Freshly! We are a weekly subscription service, so you would be charged for, and delivered meals on a weekly basis. However, you can select to skip weeks, or cancel your subscription at anytime! These changes would just need to be made prior to your weekly deadline, which is outlined in your Welcome Email, Reminder Emails, and in your Meal Planner. I hope this helps!
Answer: Our meals are prepared and shipped out from our kitchen in Phoenix.:-) For Arizona deliveries we use FedEx.
Answer: The delivery window they give us is between 9am and 9pm. We package the meals to be safe for 2 days transit time, plus safe to sit outside for up to 12 hours upon delivery.:-)
Answer: Hi Nancy! We do not cook meals based on other programs' guidelines at this time. We're not overly concerned with calorie counts, but more concerned with where calories come from. Our meals are generally high protein, high healthy fat, low carb, low sugar. We use unprocessed ingredients free from hormones or added sugars, and never use chemical preservatives. Please let me know if I can answer any other questions at this time!
Answer: Hi Shawn W, That doesn't sound right! Please reach us at [email protected] so we can take a closer look at this!
Answer: Hi Joyce, Thank you so much for reaching out to us here at Freshly! I'd like to apologize for the delayed response! First and foremost, I'd like to inform you that we're a weekly subscription service, which means you'll receive meals weekly, and get charged weekly as well. Here are the steps to follow while signing up: 1 - Add your email address and zip code in the sign-up box on our homepage. ( www.Freshly.com) 2 - Pick your meal plan. Just keep in mind that our meals have a shelf life of about 5 days unless frozen. 3 - Pick your delivery day from the available dates! The specific day of the week will be your weekly delivery day unless changed. 4 - Select your delicious meals from our 30+ selections. 5 - Add your contact info, payment details, and delivery address.
Answer: Hi Gayle, Thank you for reaching out to us here at Freshly! You can certainly reheat our meals in a conventional oven, however, our current meal containers are not safe for the oven or stove-top, so you'll have to transfer your food to heat it up. First, preheat your oven to 350° F. Transfer your food to an oven-safe dish (don't forget to scrape the sauce out of the tray!) and cover the top in tin foil. Heat for 25-35 minutes, remove foil, and let sit 3-5 minutes, then transfer to your choice of plate or bowl and enjoy! (Keep in mind, heating times are approximate. You'll want to reheat the meal to an inner temperature of 165° F.)
Answer: Hi Angela, Thank you for reaching out to us here at Freshly! We use third-party carriers for our deliveries, such as FedEx in her area! We can deliver Tuesday-Saturday in Southern Illinois--deliveries can occur between 8am-9pm depending on the carriers route for the day. While carrier delays are out of the norm, weather-related issues, road closures, driver confusion, etc. can wreak havoc. We have a dedicated delivery team that works directly with our carriers to ensure successful deliveries, and we're always sure to compensate when delays arise. We certainly hope this helps! To view a list of currently available deliveries, you can enter your zip code at www.freshly.com!
Answer: I've been getting mine in on time, but I assume as with all packages going through USPS, UPS, and FedEx right now, things have been backed up since COVID and only getting worse. So it's not Freshly's fault even if they aren't delivered on time.
