I’m on GLP1 meds for weight loss, am a terrible cook and have ADHD. Historically I make really poor food decisions and was struggling with my Drs instruction to prioritise protein. I was looking for a meal prep company but didn’t want to end up in a subscription that I can guarantee you I’d forget to cancel if I didn’t like it. Came across FuelHub by chance and noticed they did a tester box. Ordered 10 meals, 4 breakfasts, 4 protein pots and 6 protein bars for myself and my sister to try, for £140 which I thought was very reasonable. I purposely chose meals that contained at least 60g of protein. So far I have been seriously impressed! The food is great quality and very tasty. Easy to take to my work for lunch with just 3 mins in the microwave for the most part. VERY filling! My initial plan was to have two meals and a breakfast a day but the meals are so filling that I definitely won’t manage that. All the macro information is really clear on the packaging so great for keeping track.
Delivery was good but DPD is pretty good in my area. Goods were packaged well, and I’m able to pass on the 100% wool which is used to insulate the package to my friend to use as stuffing for her crochet projects. Win-win!
I’ve just started my subscription and to say my anxiety about what I’m going to eat and how to make sure it’s healthy and gives me all the protein etc that I need has been lifted is a huge understatement!!!

Bought this as part of a Mother’s Day present with a bunch of fancy tomato seeds. My mum has some manual dexterity issues and she loved this present! Also loves the fact that it incorporates about 5 tools in one.

Your delivery driver is always pleasant and mindful of where to put parcels when I’m not in. He does a great job!

I wasn’t in and wasn’t expecting the parcel that day (given a longer delivery by the seller), but Yodel emailed me to let me know it was on its way, and left the parcel in a safe place. Happy with the service.

Your delivery driver is great. He makes things easy for me by coming to my window to deliver parcels, because he knows I’m working from home and on the phone a lot, which means I can’t always come to my door.
Great customer service Kraig!

I have every scent in the shower gel, the olive face scrub and the intense moisturiser. All products are fantastic. The shower gels smell amazing and lather up very well. The Lemon and Oak, and the Sea Salt are my favourite. And the scent lingers all day. The face scrub is very nice and the moisturiser is great for dry skin. I will be buying again from this company - although I won’t need to for a while because I have about 3 litres of shower gel to get through ha ha ha.

My delivery man is brilliant! I can sing his praises high enough. I’ve had a terrible Hermes experience at previous addresses but the experience at my current address is restoring faith in Hermes. Well done!

Purchase was great but didn’t expect delivery to take over a week!

My local Hermes driver is fantastic! He knows I work from home and am sometimes stuck on a call so can’t always get to the door, so he comes to my window to make sure I get my parcel. He is always willing to chat for a second which is very valuable to someone who is high risk and stuck home most of the time. Great customer service!!

My local Hermes delivery driver is a gentleman by the name of Kraig. Due to various medical conditions I have been isolating since March and do go out very often. My only visitors are family. I have made more orders than usual during lockdown because my crafting hobby has given me something to occupy my time. This has meant that I see Kraig several times a week usually. He is always very nice and willing to take a brief moment out of his day to chat - which I’m very grateful for. In addition, he knows I work from home and can be in meetings when he arrives - he will look out for me sitting at my desk and if I have my headphones on he will pop my parcel through my window. You do a great job Kraig - well done!

Fast and efficient. Was a relatively last minute job that I was able to book for when I needed it. I was able to give a specific list of things to be moved to keep costs down. The men that carried out the work were very careful and put a dust sheet down, and took their shoes off, in my new place. All in all I was very happy with the service carried out!

Great service. I was able to book for when I needed to at short notice and amend items to be collected before the day. The rate was very reasonable. The men that carried out the work were quick and efficient. I would definitely recommend, and use again, Anyvan!

I’ve been a member of Reading in Heels for about 5 months now and I love it. I’ve had 5 books that I would never have picked up myself and I’ve enjoyed 4 of them. I did read the 5th and it was good, just not quite up my street - still, I think 4 out of 5 is a damn good hit rate! I would say the box was worth it if it was just about the book, but the little extra’s you get in it are such a treat, and the fact that there are a good few little gifts in each box makes it even more worth it. There’s always a sweet treat, usually a drink (artisan coffee or tea), always a beauty product and usually something relaxing like a face mask, some relaxing balm etc. The little gifts are usually always from small businesses and I have actually gone on to place orders with the company for three of the gifts we’ve had. I look forward to getting my box (which, incidentally, always fits through my letterbox so I don’t have to worry about where my parcel will end up in my garden!) every month. I’m saving up my next 3 books to take on holiday with me in August. Well worth the monthly subscription!!
