Alex F was fast and knowledgable in answering my questions ad a new subscriber. Thanks Alex for your help!
I chatted with someone yesterday about needing to cancel my order and got nowhere. This morning I tried again and got Arjen. Everything was done to my satisfaction within minutes!
Looks like Arjen ticked all the boxes! I appreciate this review, Jacqueline!
I was helped twice by Arden with cancellation of two orders do to not being at home. It was done quickly and politely! Great food and on the spot responses
We pride ourselves on how we take good care of our customers so hearing this makes me feel so elated! Thanks for this review, Randall! I'll let Arjen know about the awesome job he's done!
She was very patient and professional. Demonstrated customer courtesy. 5 stars
Hi Joyce, thank you for the 5-star review! I'm thrilled to hear our team was able to provide an excellent customer service.
Wonderful experience. I thought I had skipped this week, but got an email thanking me for my order. The customer service agent was able to stop the order, and issue a refund.
Thanks for sharing, Kelly! I'm happy to hear that our team was able to quickly help you with stopping the order. For next time, we recommend checking your deliveries page when logged into your subscription, on or before your weekly deadline to ensure you're able to skip weeks for meals you don't wish to receive. But of course, you're very much welcome to reach out to us anytime and we'll be more than happy to assist!
I worked with Hope today and she was extremely helpful after working with three other agents who had been not helpful. She was above and beyond!
Hi Nancy, we appreciate you sharing your experience with us! We're extremely disappointed to hear that some of our team members weren't quite helpful as Hope was when speaking with you. I'll be sure to pass your feedback along as well as sharing your positive feedback with Hope, thanks again for rating us!
I received a delivery today and one of the meal containers was damaged. I contacted Freshly on their website right away and chatted with DJ who was most helpful and was given a refund. Freshly provides delicious meals and wonderful customer service. Thank you DJ for your assistance.
Thanks for your amazing review of us, Susan! I'll be sure to share your comments with DJ. We appreciate you!
Keep in mind that this review is coming from a guy who inhales double "Baconators" and double "Bacon Kings" all the time. I generally detest health food because of bad taste or lack of flavor. Vegetables have never been attractive to me. That said, I'm thrilled to have Freshly now! Their chefs are wizards that season the dishes very well while keeping carbs and salt low. I like some meals more than others but I haven't had one yet that I couldn't eat in its entirety. Even the veggies are delicious. Overall, I'm super impressed by what they're able to achieve. Unless you've got serious culinary skills, you could spend hours destroying your whole kitchen and your food still won't be as healthy. Only knocks I have are the delivery days aren't set-in-stone and that makes having two subscriptions difficult to manage. Also, portions are a little small as I'm a big guy. 500-600 calories might be enough for small people but might I suggest "Freshly XL" with 800-1000cal portions. I'd pay a couple more dollars per meal to not have to seek out less-healthy snacks to supplement. Still, it's outstanding food, it's FRESH, it's REAL, and you can pronounce every ingredient. Oh and by the way, the convenience cannot be beaten even by fast food or delivery. It's like your fridge is full of delicious leftovers.
Wow! That was epic, thank you for sharing your valuable feedback about our meals! Our goal is to provide nutritious and tasty meals and we're glad that you're satisfied. We'll be sure to share all of this with our team as we explore ideas!
I was able to change an order and later cancel the service with no trouble at all. Used freshly for several weeks while kitchen being worked on. Excellent menu, meals are great! I am sure I will return again.
Hello Mary, thank you for sharing your experience with us! I'm happy that we're able to cook for you and that you've been most satisfied with our service. I appreciate your time spending with us and we're looking forward to cooking for you again sometime in the future!
Leonah helped me with multiple questions I had about the Freshly service. She was very professional and efficient. Thank you so much!
Hi, Alyssa! Thank you for taking the time to review us! It's always been our goal to provide great customer service so I'm pumped to hear Leonah nailed it again in rendering outstanding service. Thank you once again!
I order Freshly meals occasionally for my grandmother who is 96 and unable to cook for herself all the time. This week we accidentally neglected to skip our meals which we needed to do, due to unexpected expenses for some home repair emergencies at my grandmother's home. I reached out without thinking I would be able to receive a refund but was quickly contacted by Toni F. And assured that my refund was on the way. Very pleasantly surprised as I had already decided I would cover the expense as it was our mistake. It was very kind and prompt. I truly appreciate the level of customer service.
Hope helped me skip an order and informed me about skipping by 6p on Friday. Very much appreciated! Gave me "HOPE" there are still good people in this world!
Hi, Cynthia! Thank you for sharing your experience with our customer service! I'm overwhelmed Hope did a fantastic job in assisting you with your concerns. I'll definitely let her know about this! I appreciate you!
I had received a wrong meal with this weeks shipment. Not that it was something I dont like, and havent had before. But Kim was MORE than helpful in getting my next available menu that could be revised, and swapped two of the meals to the one that was mistaken. Totally understand that mistakes happen, and Kim was extremely helpful, and lovely to chat with.
You guys are great, we love everything about our experience with Freshly so far, even more so after chatting with Kim this evening! Thanks for everything!
Hello Aaron, thank you for sharing your honest feedback! I apologize for the trouble with your recent order however, I'm relieved that Kim was there to make things right. I truly appreciate your warm words and more than moved to hear we've been able to provide a great service to you. Thanks again!
I had to put a delivery on hold after the order date passed and they refunded my account right away. Quick response and happy to assist! My husband and I are thoroughly enjoying Freshly.
I got incredibly quick and helpful service when I had a problem with one of my meals being damaged. I really appreciate it!
Hello, Christopher, thanks for sharing your experience with us! I apologize for the inconvenience you had in receiving a damaged meal but glad our customer service team was able to assist you right away. I truly appreciate your feedback!
Customer service was very helpful and very nice! Pleasure to talk to!
Hello LeAnne, thanks for the 5-star rating! Your feedback goes a long way to us and I'm glad we're able to provide an outstanding job assisting you! Thank you for being part of the Freshly fam!
Fast and painless customer service assistance. He responded quickly and efficiently to help me cancel subscription because the cancellation button was not appearing in the drop-down menu
Hi Firmidable, thank you for your review! I apologize for the trouble with canceling your subscription but I'm pleased to hear you're satisfied with the customer service that you received. I appreciate your 5-star rating and I hope we'll be able to serve you again in the future!
Aljun helped me with a very last minute change/cancelation of my order and was very polite and quick to answer any questions I had. Top notch quality of service.
Hello Eric, thanks for the positive feedback! I'm so glad Aljun was able to provide great assistance. I'll definitely share this review with him! Thanks again!
Aljun was friendly, addressed my concerns quickly and was really helpful. All my customer service experiences with Freshly have been positive, and he continued that great pattern!
Right on the spot! Thank you for providing us this magnificent review, Jessica! Aljun will surely be happy to hear about your kind words!
Customer service rep answered my question quickly. Nice. Didn't much like the answer, but now I know what to expect.
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.
