Completed 60,000 steps-per-week challenge for 4 weeks with Qantas Assure x Hellofresh and was given a promo code for a free box.
Box arrived yesterday and got my groceries sorted for the week.

Code seems generic and sure enough, worked for a new account.

Delivery area excludes Tasmania and Western Australia.

Enjoy :)

    Is this legit, can you cancel straight away? It states "After your first charge, your weekly subscription can be modified, paused or cancelled. Your regular deliveries will be charged on a weekly basis. Delivery fee may apply. Delivery fees include GST."

    Had nothing but dramas from the similar free coupon thing a few days ago.
    Got charged the full amount despite the coupon 'redeeming' fine during checkout and showing the accurately reduced cost of -100%.

    Been back and forth with their support ever since then trying to get my cancellation and refund sorted. (Of which I'm still waiting for the funds to be reimbursed)
    I'd stay away from these type of things personally.

    Have had a bad experience with these guys in the past, and I'm not alone. Maybe it's the postal system/couriers' fault but food was dropped off unrefrigerated and was spoiled by the time I got home. Either way, I don't trust lazy delivery drivers with the safety of my food!

    Got five free boxes sent last year from promo codes, using different names but the same address. Used my first and middle name, the missus' first and middle names, and then finally the cat's name. They got suss and cancelled the cat's box, and I called pretending to be the cat on the phone (even threw in a little meow for laughs). They said they cancelled because my address had been claimed four times before by four different customers, and 'my cat' explained that he was a tenant and it was one big sharehouse. They apologised for the misunderstanding and sent the box the week after. haha

    I ordered a box with a new email I immediately contacted HelloFresh through their online chat after the transaction and provided the order number. I asked to confirm if it will be free. HelloFresh said it would.

    Judging by the guy before who said that he complained when his cat did get their order, Im sure HelloFresh will honour these orders or will to those who complain the most if cancelled.

    Plus there will be loads of Qantas Assure members who have used the code. Wouldnt they be cancelling theirs too?

    Since they accept PayPal, I signed up using PayPal and paid the $1, and then immediately cancelled the subscription from within PayPal. So hopefully they send this box and will then be unable to take anything else from my account.

    • djkelly69 on 30/08/2017 - 16:08

      I tried it once with a free box using a code from someone on here. Think it was worth about $150.

      Don't get it if you are lazy - the food is nice and all, but lots of steps and ingredients means a lot of prep and cooking time, plus lots of cleaning and washing up.

      Not even sure I would buy one for $50.

      • Hirolol on 30/08/2017 - 17:28

        Yeah i think if you have the money to blow you are going to just eat out because as you say the hassle of everything else involved in cooking takes too long.

    I got the first box (5 meals for 2 people) free using a previous referral and now I subscribe. I like it, but I usually skip boxes. I get one every 2 or 3 weeks. You can easily skip boxes or cancel the account on the website or the app. They never called me but if they do I will just block the number as I did with Aussie farmers when they were calling me 3x/day. I hate that. If they have something to offer they should just send an email instead.
    I gave a free box to a friend and she got the first box last Sunday. She liked but is cancelling as it's not cheap considering the preparation and cooking process. No problem cancelling. I will try some of the prepared foods this week (Muscle) so I am skipping all deliveries for September. If I like the prepared meals I will probably cancel Hello Fresh, but I like the flavour. I don't like washing the dishes and cleaning the kitchen though.

  • Lyla-chee on 30/08/2017 - 20:26

    Just got an email titled "Confirmation of your cancellation" which stated "Your deactivation has been processed immediately. After your final delivery on 2 Sep 2017 you will receive no further deliveries."

    Looks like they're cancelling the orders, will I still get my first order? I can't see how that would work to their advantage because the only way they'd get money back is if people keep ongoing subscriptions..

    Note: I didn't cancel it, i was going to wait until after delivery of my first box

      I also received the same email without cancelling anything. In full it says:

      Hi Xxxxxxx,

      A quick note to thank you for giving HelloFresh a go and also that we're sorry to see that you’ve decided to deactivate your Classic Box Classic - 5 meals per week for 4 persons.

      Your last delivery
      Your deactivation has been processed immediately. After your final delivery on 3 Sep 2017 you will receive no further deliveries.

      Please note that we are not able to ship Fruit or Juice Boxes as standalone orders, and any ongoing subscriptions of these boxes will be cancelled and refunded to you.

      Thank you very much and hopefully we’ll be feeding you again soon!

      Also, when I login to Hellofresh and check my calendar there is a box scheduled for delivery on 3 Sep and every week's scheduled order after that has been removed (was previously auto-set to weekly order a box when I checked earlier this afternoon). Fingers crossed Hellofresh come through with the goods!

        If you go to the Orders History tab under Settings is your order still there? Mine was this afternoon but it is empty now after I have received the email.

        • tomclancy on 30/08/2017 - 22:10

          Ahhhh… nope nothing there

        • Lyla-chee on 30/08/2017 - 22:17

          Yeah same boat, it's still on the calendar but not in orders history. Guessing we probably won't be getting the boxes then, do we wait at home on the delivery date or not..
