Actually Zero. Ordered and paid last week through PayPal. Waited all day for my food to be delivered, as scheduled. I am starving at 7pm, call and they tell me they are having problems and there will be NO deliveries until next week. So yeah, if I hadn't called, I'd still be starving at midnight. No notification at all, NOTHING, NADA, ZIP, ZILCH. Do I get my money back, apparently not. Do I get an apology, No. I get a really rude guy, who could care less--just we are having problems. Did not even look up my account. I am supposed to get food next week, will I still be starving then? Stay tuned.
I recieved a delivery today. I just received one last Monday, and I am on a bi-weekly plan. So, a delivery was not expected this week... but, there is was. Sid weas very helpful and solved the issue right away. Extremely polite & understanding.
Thanks for your outstanding review, Barbara! I'm happy Sid was able to help resolve any confusion this may have caused with your weekly deliveries, and thank you again for your review!
Jennifer hung in there while I described my confusions about number of meals and a referral credit from referring my sister. I talk up Freshly quite a bit. I look forward to when you start doing vegetarian meals too. Thanks!
We appreciate you sharing your customer service experience with us, Carol! I'm happy to know Jennifer was able to fully assist, and yes, I hope we'd have veggie-friendly options for you soon! I'd be sure to share your feedback with our Chefs. Thanks again, Carol!
I love getting freshly, but when I went out of town I forgot to cancel my next delivery and realized it the next day. I contacted costumer support and Fritz issued a full refund for me! Customer support is always the best when I have had to contact them and everything gets resolved very quickly.
I contacted Freshly for the second time recently and Royce was very helpful and quick with my questions about the order. Extremely happy with the stellar support team!
AMAZING! Thank you for consistently sharing your experience with us, Maria. I hope we'd keep you filled and satisfied with our meals and service!
My husband is an amateur chef. He LOVES Freshly! The flavors are out of this world and not like "frozen" dinners at all. I HIGHLY recommend Freshly to all my friends & Family. I feel like I am eating at a fine restaurant without the hassle of cooking. And the customer service agents are beyond the 5 star rating! I have spoke to two agents and both were very helpful and knowledgeable. Miley, the last agent knew just what to do and was professional and friendly.
Thank you for your stellar review of us, Julie! I'm so happy you both have been enjoying so far. I'd be sure to share your feedback with Miley, and if you remember the other agent you spoke with, don't hesitate to leave us a review and let us know. I appreciate your recommending us!
My discount code was dropped when my order was placed against my card. I provided the necessary info and Sid was very helpful in resolving the issue with the proper credit.
Delivery was made on a Monday instead of requested Tuesday. Box left outside of unlocked gate in unsecured area and now changed to inside of gate. These changes all made possible by Valentine F. Very professional, courteous and kind. Freshly has it all together when it comes to customer service. Thank you, Valentine!
WOW -- this means a lot to us, JoAnn! I'm so happy to hear we've been able to help resolve the delivery issues, and I'd be sure to share your feedback with Valentine!
Naj was immediately helpful in processing my request to cancel this week's Freshly order. I appreciated his quick work and courteous attitude.
Thanks for your review, Dan! I'm so happy to hear we've been able to quickly help, and I'd be sure to share your feedback with Naj. Thanks again!
Spoke to agent named Valentine, he was outstanding and very professional
Thank you for sharing this with us, Wayne! I hope we'd keep you impressed and satisfied with our meals!
Excellent response time with my request. I love your product, but I have no further need for your service at this time.
Thank you
Thanks for your review, Kay! We value your time and so we do our best to respond as soon as we can. Thank you again for sharing your experience with everyone!
Great company, outstanding food and great customer service. Bella on the chat system was outsanding. I will be coming back. I just had to take some time off during this pandemic.
WOW -- thank you so much for the Freshly love, Kevin! I'd be sure to share your feedback with Bella, and we hope you'd keep coming back!
Chelsea was very professional when I needed to change my menu. It was very easy without any hassle. As far as the customer service is concerned Its great so far. I'm excited to try the food. I hope it will be as good as the service.
I'm so thrilled to hear how you've enjoyed our meals and overall experience, Stephanie! I'd be sure to share your feedback with Chelsea. Thanks again for your rating!
I was impressed and amazed how diligently packed each item was.
Thank you for your 5-star review Leland! I hope we'd continue to WOW you week after week!
Great, although I thought I had skip this week due to vacation
We're so happy to hear from you! Thanks again for your rating, and I hope we can cook for you soon!
I'm very glad! I'll be a new member soon! Excellent agents! They are very efficient. Thank you!
The support staff at freshly is polite and very attentive. Unfortunately the food is mediocre at best. Most meals are like a goulash and the herbs and spices overwhelm the dishes. If you like Indian spices you might like it.
I found it disappointing.
Hi there, Paul. Thank you for sharing your meal experience with us, I'm really sorry to hear you didn't fully enjoy them. I'll be sure to pass along your thoughts and concerns to our kitchen for review. Any and all feedback is appreciated, and taken into consideration when making improvements. Our menu is 100% customer inspired and driven, using ratings and suggestions from our customers!
I enjoy the Freshly meals. We started using Freshly because we are working parents with long hours and we have a teenager that is in multiple sports and other school activities. We noticed we were eating fast food more frequently than I would like to admit due to our busy schedules. Freshly has made meal time so easy and has definitely taken the stress off of us. We get healthy, fresh, tasty, well proportioned meals that we all love (including my picky teenager)! From the moment they arrived on my doorstep, I was impressed with how well packaged they are. My only complaint is that some of the meals we loved are no longer available. New meals have been added which are also tasty, but I feel the selection has become more limited making mealtime mundane.
Today Chelle helped me in a tight spot to cancel my next weeks delivery, super grateful for such an easy experience, this is why I love this service, they always work with you when you need it!
Thanks for the Freshly love, Jessica! It means so much to us to be here for you. I'll also share your awesome review with Chelle!
Meals are always fresh, delicious and a good way to help maintain a healthy lifestyle! The portions are perfect with a variety of choices. Something for everyone! Even my picky husband is impressed. Love this meal service!
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!

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.
