Mostly Great Before MealPal, I spent $12-$18 on lunch every day in SF. After switching to MealPal in September 2018, I have saved over $1000 on lunch. The options are usually phenomenal and range from healthy salads (which I try to eat) to more hearty things. My only two qualms are 1) portion size varies hugely by restaurant (and it's hard to judge based on a picture), which they've tried to combat by adding more transparency to the menu 2) UI/UX could definitely use improvement especially on the desktop version

Completely deceptive and poor billing… Completely deceptive and poor billing practices. Will happily charge you £12 for a 'trial', barely have any offerings available when you open the app (most of the time it says come back later), then if you don't use your trial credits in a few days they expire (meaninglessly, just to suck up your money for nothing) and they won't refund you. Basically just a cash grab. I wish I'd looked at the reems of other 1 star reviews saying the exact same thing before I joined.

BEWARE OF SCAM I loved the experience at first, but the company does not make it clear that you have to pay for another month of meals in order to access credits you have already paid for. For example, I paid for a month of credits (72) and at the end of the month I still had 42 credits left. When I tried to use these credits I was told that I cannot access them unless I pay for another month. When I asked if I could just cancel my account but use my credits that I had already paid for, the customer service team was very rude to me. A little kindness and empathy goes a long way and Meal Pal does not offer that. To me this feels very scammy because I essentially paid for meals that I can no longer get. It is a scam to advertise this company as a more affordable option when they force you to pay more money to access credits that you have already paid for. Don't make my mistake!!!!!!!!

Wonderful customer service While the app is definitely not my favorite, the customer service for MealPal is wonderful. I didn't realize I was going to be charged for a meal plan so soon after redeeming my free meal, so I called them and asked for a refund, as I had no intentions of buying a plan. They immediately canceled my account and issued my refund! They were very understanding and kind.

Great option for the city If you're willing to have limited options but good ones, it's a great economical way to do lunch in NYC. It's hard to cook and bring food in this city when you're working long hours so this is consistently a great way to keep me from spending too much on meals.
