eDiets.com reviews and complaints

This is by far the worst packaged menu portioned "Food" I have ever had. My local store probably would not even carry it due to the substandard quality of the "Meals". Would you like specifics? The potatoes are so watery that when heated, it has the consistency of a soup. There is so much vinegar in the red onion ingredient that I had to immediately toss the dish into the outside trash bin and open the windows in my house. The most disgusting dish I had was some sort of pot roast over noodles. The meat had the blood vessels from what ever animal it came protruding from the surface of the meat. Totally gross. It resembled a charicature of something drawn by Mad magazine. I sincerely hope this keeps one person from signing up for this awful diet plan.

I just went through the same thing. It was awful. It took me forever to be able to cancel and then I was charged a fee for it

they did the same thing to me

Use Diets to go you do not have to sign up on a contract or anything you call in each week before Friday and they charge then so if you are going out of town you are not charged for meals you did not eat. You can go on auto pay and if you want to stop they cancel right away.

So maddddddd!
Ediets is a total scam! I just cancelled my debit card!

Ediets is a total scam!

While I am really pissed about eDiets UNAUTHORIZED charge to my account (an "autorenew") I actually WAS able to get someone on the phone to reverse the charge immediately. The cust service agent told me that I agreed to the "auto renew" when I signed up online, that it was in the fine print. After I hung up I remembered that I joined using their 800 number and spoke to a person, NOT A CHANCE IN I WOULD EVER AGREE TO AUTO PAY. eDiets, that is a shylock SNEAKY business practice. The very least you could do if you insist on keeping the practice IS GIVE NOTICE. Ridiculous for such a good company. Insult to injury, I am going to get spanked with a $35 overdraft fee because this was not my primary account.

I am angry here too. Got hit with an UNAPPROVED "auto renew" charge. Unfortunately this charge to my rarely used account resulted in an overdraft. No email from eDiets to give me a heads up of their plan NO APPROVAL from in the first place, no chance to change the account or cancel..just a ridiculous $35 bank fee for the privilege of borrowing $17 bucks. IDIOTS! eDiets you too good a company to employ this type of underhanded business practice.

I'm having the same experience. It's been terrible! I think my next step may have to be to stop the charge from coming through which will cost me as well.

It is a SCAM!

I just found out my total charges was not for the 4week program. It was only for the week. Which means they are telling me that $128 a week x 4 You do the math! Who in the right mind would pay $128 for 5 days of frozen tasteless food while you can go to your local grocery store and but smart-ones for the whole month..
This site is a total SCAM !

STAY AWAY! What they don't tell you about their meal plans and shopping list is that the recipes don't work together so you have to buy an ingredient just so you can use a tablespoon of it and never need it again. The meals don't work together and it will get VERY expensive to follow their recommended meal plans. They also make you sign a 3 month agreement (hidden in the fine print) and charge you a $25 early cancellation fee if you cancel early because you don't like their service. STAY AWAY FROM THIS SCAM OPERATION!

I was solicited via their live chat, the chat representative, Cornelius Pittman, asked if he could call me with additional discounts and promotions not listed online. Cornelius called and offered me a 15% discount, mind you can't gain access to the menu for home delivery until you have given them your credit card information. Cornelius gave me the 5 day plan for $115.24 including delivery. This comes to $5.76 per meal. Sounds good until you access the menus and discover that your breakfast and snacks consist of blueberry muffin (1) or eggs and apple sauce or english muffin, canadian ham, egg (egg McMuffis essentially), snack cracker, for example. These choices are definitely not worth $5.76 each. So its misleading when the guy tells you that you are getting a good value for $5.76 per meal including shipping. When asked about cancellation, the rep fails to tell you that you can cancel if you call back within the hour. When asked about the cancellation the rep explains that you cannot cancel the first week and that if you cancel before 4 weeks you will be charged a $99.00 cancellation fee. A serious rip off. Then when you call back to cancel from the same number they called you back at to take your order, their computer system hangs up on you if you select the option to cancel your order. You don't get through to speak with anyone unless you call from a different phone number and select something other than cancel. Then the representatives, including the supervisor, refuse to waive the cancellation fee. So you have to pay $99.00 for being deceived and trying to do something about it. Its a serious rip off. Call the consumer protection agency and tell them about it if you've been riped off by this company.

I agree they are a rip off. They advertise 3 weeks free but they don't say u have to be on their plan for 3 months before u even get a week free. That is false advertising! DONT SIGN UP!
