I recently made a purchase from Flexpro Meals to begin a subscription food delivery service that would satisfy my dietary needs. Previously I had no issues with them and found dealing with them to be pretty honest and easy. My most recent purchase to restart my subscription cost 155 for the first purchase than it was slated to be 209 every 2 weeks after that. My order was supposed to ship the next day after purchasing it which was Aug 14th 2024. I contacted them on Aug 19th to check the status of my order. I was informed there was a "glitch" in the system that prevented my order from going thru. I have the transcript showing it was going to be corrected. As compensation they put in a 2nd order for free that was set to be shipped. When I asked how many shipments to expect I was told 2. The second order was set to ship that day which was Aug 19th. The delivery time is about a 48 hour period. I have not received either order and now I can not contact anyone on the website or in customer service. For the last 3 working days the online chat shows they are not available. They have since changed the price of my order from 155 to 0 and I have been informed by my financial institution no refund has been processed.Business Response

I have been locked in an ongoing subscription with flexpromeals with no way of getting out. I have called their support number and have only been able to talk to a robot.

I purchased a one time deal of 21 meals for $4 each with no strings attached. Unfortunately I do not enjoy the meals because of the exorbitant sodium content. The company automatically put me on a subscription service which I do not agree to. I tried to take myself off of subscription service by calling them 3 times. Each time I called it said there would only be a one minute wait and each time it made me wait 15 - 20 minutes and then hung up on me. After reading several complaints online about this same problem with the business, it is clear to me that this is common the way they run their business in an unscrupulous way.Business Response

On July 6th 2024 I placed an order with FlexPro meals for a special they were running. FlexPro double charge my credi card. That same day after ordering, I learned I could not customize my order. I immediately contacted FlexPro to cancel all order. FlexPro cancelled one order but did not cancel the 2nd order. I was not aware there was a second order until I received a order shipment notification. The rep told me to keep the food because the items already shipped and a refund for the second order would be credited to my credit card. As of August 10th, my credit card has yet to be credited for the send order. Please issue an immediate refund for the second order.Business Response

I signed up for a 15-meal plan, but my experience was disappointing from the start. The first meal I tried was excessively salty, and I couldn’t find any information about the sodium content on their website. After spending time searching for this information, I finally had to contact customer support. When I eventually received the nutrition facts, I was shocked to see that most of the meals contained 2000mg of sodium and high cholesterol levels—far exceeding the recommended daily amounts for a single meal. It's misleading to market these meals as healthy when only a couple of them stay within acceptable daily sodium limits. When I realized this, I requested to cancel my subscription, only to be told that I couldn’t do it myself and that a manager would have to call me back to process the cancellation. It's concerning that there’s no option to cancel your subscription directly on the website. This lack of transparency and control, combined with the unhealthy meals, makes me feel like this service is a complete rip-off.Business Response

I paid 93.99$ on 7/15 for the deal they had posted for 21 meals at $4 per meal price point. I never received my meals, the carrier updated that my meals were discarded after being postponed. I let FlexPro know and they re sent the package. I then was updated from the carrier that the package was delivered but the recipient turned them away. I was not the recipient as I never received them and I was home all day to receive this package. I then let Flex Pro know again and sent picture proof of updates from carrier and themselves. I asked for a refund in which ***** Their customer support in the text chat let me know I would receive it in 3-5 business days. I checked everyday for the 5 business days and still have not received it. I let Customer support know, they stated to check with my bank account as the refund was issued 8/5. I did not use a bank account for this transaction I used a credit card. I have checked with my credit card company and I have not received any credits on that date or any refunds.Business Response

Cancellation. They refuse to cancel my subscription. They are trying to get them to cancel it and they keep trying to talk me into getting other meals. I kept telling them no but they keep texting me and they won't cancel my subscription.Business Response

I placed an order on Flexpro for 10 meals. They are to be delivered the week of August the 11, it is currently the 6th. I changed my mind about meal prep and wanted to cancel the order as and receive a refund. Additionally, Flexpro opted me in for a permanent meal subscription. I want to cancel the subscription as well but their customer service is non-existent. Their chatbot did not resolve my queries and their help number has no response. I feel scammed and it feels like Flexpro's main method of customer retention is by making it impossible for customers to cancel their subscription. This company is a total scam. I just want my refund and the cancellation of a subscription I did not agree to pay for.Business Response

Date of the transaction was 1 August 2024. I paid 72.93 for 10 meals. I was informed that my order would be shipped on 7 August 2024. I just received an email that my order would now not be processed until 11 August 2024. I have attempted multiple times to contact customer service. I was hung up on three times after being on hold for 15+ minutes each time. I have contacted their online customer service multiple times being told they cannot cancel my subscription and that someone else would reach out to me. No one has reached out to me. I was also informed that I could contact them but again I was hung up on three times. I was told there are high volumes of call when that straight up wasn't true. I was caller number one each time and I waited 15+ minutes just to be hung up on. It was extremely easy to do business with this scummy company, but they make it impossible to cancel. I need my subscription cancelled immediately and my money refunded as I do not believe I am ever going to receive their product.Business Response

Impossible to get in touch with customer service. The automated chat tells you someone will contact you but that never happens. I have been charged for multiple deliveries following my request to cancel my subscription. It feels intentional and dirty. After using 7+ other meal services, they are by far the sketchiest and my customer service experience has been the worst from any company ever.Business Response
