Absolutely Scam

Absolutely Scam !

It scams you in every possible opportunity ! You get 125euro off (but only if you order 5boxes.)

They promise you "ZWILLING Knife" after the third box, then they reveal the information that you have to order it while there is still stock for it. Of course there is no stock about it.

Quality has significantly declined from when it started.

Hello Franc,

thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are truly sorry to hear about your disappointment regarding our discount structure, the promotional item, and the quality of your recent deliveries.

We strive to make all our conditions and promotions as clear and transparent as possible. It is certainly not our intention to leave you feeling mislead about the discount conditions or the availability of the Zwilling knife promotion. Furthermore, a decline in ingredient quality is far from the standard we aim to provide you.

We take your feedback very seriously and want to look into your account and experience to clarify this situation for you. Our Customer Care team will reach out to you directly shortly.

Thank you for your patience.

Missing ingredients

From time to time, the box is missing ingredients. When informing the customer support, you don’t really get anything, they just tell you they will be in touch - never happened. So, no refund or anything, considering the boxes are already pricey and then you pay full price for partial delivery.

Ingredients arrived with short expiration dates only 1-2 days after arrival the first one even reached it's edibility date (fish) so no way of choosing the order in which the recipes are cooked, after canceling my subscription they reset my account but didn't unsubscribe me,needed a second round. Not recommended

Hello,

thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are truly sorry to hear about your negative experience with the expiration dates of your ingredients and the trouble you faced while trying to cancel your subscription.

Receiving fresh produce with such a short shelf life—especially sensitive items like fish—does not reflect our quality standards, as you should always have the flexibility to plan your meals. Furthermore, the cancellation process should be smooth and clear without requiring multiple attempts.

The last deliveries were terrible

The last deliveries were terrible, not on time. I pay for the slot extra, and it never works. The ingredients are either forgotten or exchanged constantly.
The quality is ingredients has improved, the portion amounts are good.

But the hassle with delivery is really a reason to cancel for me. And DPD is really bad partner. You would be not the first service I stop using, because of DPD.

I do actually like the idea of…

I do actually like the idea of HelloFresh and I’ve had quite a few meals that were really good, but the customer service is honestly the biggest problem for me.
And I don’t mean just “it could be a little better.” I mean I really, really don’t like the way customer service handles things sometimes. The communication can come across as condescending, unfriendly and not very customer-focused at all. When you contact customer service because something went wrong, you already have a reason for reaching out. You shouldn’t then be made to feel like you’re annoying, overreacting or causing a problem just because you want help.
I really wish HelloFresh would take more inspiration from American customer service in that sense. Not because the customer always has to get everything they want, but because the attitude is usually much more like, “Okay, I understand, let’s see what we can do.” Friendly, polite, understanding and actually trying to find a solution.
Mistakes happen. Missing ingredients happen. Wrong items happen. Delivery problems happen. I can accept all of that. What really changes my opinion of a company is how they treat me when I contact them about it.
For a company like HelloFresh, where people are supposed to order again and again, I honestly think customer service should be one of the strongest parts of the whole experience. Right now, for me, it’s probably the weakest.
Apart from that, I would also love to see the meals become a little more international and creative. More real dishes from different countries and cultures would be great.
I’d also LOVE themed weeks, especially something nostalgic like a 90s dinner series. American 90s comfort food, German childhood dinners, British classics, different countries, different decades something fun that makes you excited to look at the menu every week.
But honestly, even with better and more creative meals, the biggest thing I would want HelloFresh to improve is the customer service. It needs to feel much friendlier, more respectful and much less condescending.

Hello,

thank you very much for your detailed and constructive feedback. We are glad to hear that you enjoy the concept of HelloFresh and appreciate many of our meals, as well as your creative ideas for international dishes and nostalgic theme weeks.

At the same time, we are truly sorry to hear about your experience with our customer service. Feeling disrespected, dismissed, or spoken to in a condescending manner is completely unacceptable and does not reflect the standard of care and respect we strive to provide. We completely agree with you: when something goes wrong, reaching out for support should be a smooth and helpful experience where you feel heard and valued.

We would really like to look into your concern and address this issue internally to ensure we improve our service quality.

We have just requested additional contact information from you via Trustpilot. This gives you the opportunity to send us a private message containing the following details: your first and last name, your customer number, your phone number, and the email address linked to your HelloFresh account.

I purchased a sample bag of dog food along with a regular bag of dog food. It was enough to last a month, two weeks later without notification, they send me another bag and charge me over a HUNDRED dollars. When I called to request a return (box unopened) they refused. CUSTOMER SERVICE IS HORRIBLE I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THEM AGAIN!!!!!

Helpless customer service

Simple request to change a Billing address has been going on for over 3 months and they are STILL making mistakes over mistakes everytime they change it!! Unable to do this very simple thing, every week an ingredient is missing from the recipes, the garlic, the green onions, something different every week. I paid extra for duck in a recipe,they ran out and changed it to beef without automatically providing the refund for the extra you pay for duck, no questiond asked if thats even okay with you. Customer service is helpless at this point, i had hello fresh in canada and the service was extremely different, German hello fresh is terrible, would NOT recommend.
