The food appears to be a little dry, not sure when it was vacuum sealed.
I have had diet chef before approx 20 years ago and enjoyed the variety.
This Bach appears different and breakfast and lunches are similar and coouring and textures taste same.
I asked for gluten free option yet only 2 -3 cereals state gluten free.
I did enjoy pancake mix the best.

Hi Manjit,
Thank you for your feedback.
We’re sorry to hear that some of the meals have not fully met your expectations in terms of texture and variety. Our meals are vacuum sealed for freshness and to support a longer shelf life, but we appreciate that this may not always match everyone’s personal preference.
We’re also sorry for any confusion around the gluten-free options. While we do offer a range of gluten-free suitable meals, we understand it can feel limited, and we’ll ensure your feedback is shared with the relevant team for review.
It’s great to hear you enjoyed the pancake mix the most, and if you’d like any help selecting meals that better suit your preferences for future deliveries, our member support team would be happy to assist at info@dietchef.co.uk.
Best wishes,
Diet Chef

Hi George,
Thank you so much for the 5 stars!
We’re really sorry to hear your delivery arrived later than scheduled and that the box was damaged. Unfortunately, delays with DHL are slightly out of our control, but if you ever have an issue with a future delivery, please don’t hesitate to contact our member support team and we’ll be happy to help.
All our meals and boxes leave us in perfect condition, but on rare occasions they can be damaged in transit. In these cases, we’re always happy to arrange replacements. If you do find any affected meals, please let us know and we’ll sort this straight away.
We hope you enjoy the meals, and thank you again for your feedback!

Plenty of variety in tastey foods.
I have enjoyed most of the food (just a couple of not nicers) and have lost a steady two pounds a week. Only wanted a month's supply so cancelled from then which was charged at £50. Though not ideal, my cancellation was dealt with efficiently and swiftly by Jenny.

Hi Clarence,
Congratulations on your weight loss — two pounds a week is a great steady result!
Thank you for your feedback. We’re pleased to hear you’ve generally enjoyed the meals, and that your cancellation was handled efficiently and swiftly by Jenny. We’re sorry to hear a couple of items weren’t to your taste, and we appreciate all feedback as it helps us improve.
Just to clarify, we have a cancel-any-time policy with no cancellation fees. However, as longer plans are offered at a discounted rate compared to shorter plans, if you cancel early we simply ask that the difference between the discounted longer plan and the shorter duration completed is covered.
If you have any questions in future, our member support team is available at info@dietchef.co.uk.

The diet was easy to order, got delivered on time so service is great. However I am not really enjoying the meals at all plus it is expensive as you have to buy extra fruit and veg to go with the meals.

We’re sorry to hear that your delivery did not arrive when expected. While we do everything we can to minimise the risk of delays, deliveries are handled by DHL and are therefore slightly out of our direct control.
That said, a member of our team is currently looking into your delivery and assisting you to ensure this is resolved as quickly as possible.

The order process was straightforward and delivery when expected. One small disappointment was when I phoned while waiting for my delivery as I was not given a time slot to expect the courier. I got a response more than 24 hours later which was no help. So far I am very pleased with the meals supplied .
