I have made multiple attempts to cancel my order without any response from the business via phone, voice-mail, text, and email. At first the meals were great, customer service answered within the first month and I've used the service for a few months now, but started meal prepping myself at home. The last order I received had an open container in it and rice all in the box was completely contaminated and I did not feel comfortable consuming the items. I have made multiple attempts to cancel with no response. This is bad business ethics. Last payment was 6.1.23 last delivery was 6.7.23. I have canceled and reported through credit card company as well.Business Response

The business has NO WAY to cancel subscription, trying to do so on their website only leads to a phone number which doesn't even go to a live person but a voicebox, their "live chat" literally doesn't exist on the website. The next billing period is in two days so I need this canceled IMMEDIATELY.Business Response

Hello,
I have tried many times to cancel this meal subscription. According to the Live Chat, it must be done by phone. They have created 4 tickets for someone to call me. I’ve already texted them 5 different times and sent two emails. I cannot get a response to cancel this meal subscription. I’ve even messaged their Instagram account. This is extremely unethical.Business Response

Signed up for subscription. Like many others I found that the subscription was unclear on the 4 weeks minimum that is forced. I have reached out many times to try and cancel my subscription but they ignore me. Ive even tried to reach out to them on their social media but they ignored me on that. Been trying to get ahold of anyone from the company for 10 days now.Business Response

On 4 May 2023, I received an email stating that my meals I had ordered had been delivered, but I did not get them. I contact customer service through text and informed them of what happened. They asked if I would like a refund or have the meals resent. I requested to have the meals resent.
On 11 May 2023, I received the replacement box, but the ice packs had all melted and the meals were not cold any more. I send a text to customer service (the same number I used before) and informed them of the situation. I did not receive a reply, so I sent another text on 12 May 2023. I inquired if I would receive a refund for the food. On 15 May 2023, I had not received a response, so I requested they cancel my service. I did not receive a reply. Multiple times I had tried calling and using the messenger bot to cancel my service, but have not been able to get a response. On 20 May 2023, I sent another text informing them if I did not receive a response be the end of day of Monday, 22 May 2023, I would contact the BBB.
I would like the company to refund me the last purchase I made (119.89) and to cancel my subscription.Business Response

I placed an order on Thursday around midnight. Had multiple problems with their website as it had fixed quantities on numerous which I had to go in and manually change. There was an issue with discount not be applied and had to go back and re do my order to forget about the fixed quantities on their pro bites again. Then after that processed all the way through I get review the receipt showing those additional items I did not request. Then I get numerous emails. Specifically one that give me all the information for the account the created on my behalf. I log in immeasurable to cancel this subscription and it says I can’t cause they’re closed. Call them first thing and it gives you a message to leave a message or love chat for an immediate response. Utilize the live chat and it says someone will reach me via txt. I’ve been getting the same auto text for days, and when I call. No customer service whatsoever. They won’t cancel the subscription they automatically signed me up for. They violated their own terms and conditions by creating an account for me and saving all my information without my consent. This company knows exactly what they are doing. Extremely quick and easy to get caught up in it and beyond difficult to be done with them. Please review them as they are not to be trusted.Business Response

Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. As a ProPlan subscriber via our discounted offer when committed to the first four orders, prior to completing the signup process, our terms state that you need to commit to the first four orders which automatically creates our customer’s accounts and subscriptions. We’re very sorry that this came unexpectedly to you. Alternatively, we offer a subscription at full price with the convenience of being able to cancel it whenever you like. However, it is worth noting that we were in the midst of our CRM migration when your cancellation request was sent hence there was a delay in our response. This is not the experience we want for our customers. We are very sorry for the inconvenience caused. Upon checking on our end, I can confirm that we've canceled your subscription moving forward. You won't be charged for or receive any further orders. Thank you for your business and for giving Flexpromeals a try. We truly appreciate your feedback.
