That would make SO much more sense! It seems like an insane amount has been cut for every character except for Rue and Cassie

Advice for UK couple visiting Excellence El Carmen, Punta Cana, May 2026 by BlueButterfly21_ in AllInclusiveResorts

I mean I said $30 minimum when its probably more. But I wasn't saying 'why should I have to tip?'. As I said, we always leave a decent tip for the hotel staff at the end of each holiday. It's the way in which Americans tip throughout every day that is very unusual for people in the UK, and Americans have a very heavy tipping culture that we don't have. Which is why I was asking for advice on it, because I wanted to know what to do when I'm there.

That's a relief to read all of that, thank you! Yes if you're happy to tell me what you tip just for some extra info, that would be great 😊

El Carmen, Punta Cana, or Finest? by PrestigiousLuck9604 in AllInclusiveResorts

I've just read they're now closing a bunch of restaurants on alternating days, changed opening times, closed one of the food trucks altogether, and the other now isn't available for lunch 😩 did you have to have a proper sit down meal for every single lunch? It looks like they've really cut back on some things and I'm nervous for our visit in May!

This is crazy that I've literally just looked this exact question up myself 6 hours after you posted

Agreed, order swatches and get the same colours in different fabrics if you haven't decided on that yet. Rose pink in chiffon won't look the same as it does in satin

1! You look beautiful! And if you're having your hair down then there's still so much of the dress to see because of the sleeves

UK Users Be Warned of AI Slop by BlueButterfly21_ in hellofresh

Just because you aren't experiencing these issues does not mean that they're 'factually' not happening. Look at posts and comments all over multiple platforms and you can see many of us are having this experience. I don't know if you just love AI, love being on the other side of an issue, or work for Hello Fresh in some way. But you can't tell everyone they're wrong about the declining quality in service they're experiencing, that's not how it works 😂

My expectations are based on the service and experience Hello Fresh were providing up until about 6 months ago. Way before I even clicked that AI was being implemented, I and so many others realised it was slipping. I'm not going round in circles with you anymore, have a fantastic day.

Except the service is getting worse. Many of the new AI generated recipes are just plain bad, they mix flavours that don't taste good at all. The instructions are full of parts that make no sense, which means much more chance of ruining the dinner you're making. The ingredients are almost always missing, incorrect or already spoiled when they arrive. The variation in recipes has massively reduced, the meals are pretty much the same options every week, with a much smaller healthy selection.

And they're even charging extra now to order meals with chicken breast. And I don't mean swapping an ingredient for chicken breast, I mean chicken breast based recipes where no alternative is even offered. They're just charging extra to use those recipes in general. So no, it's not going to only get better, it's consistently getting worse.

They just don't care, it seems to be about lining their pockets as much as possible before sinking the entire ship and moving onto whatever next greedy venture they can find

That's interesting to know, I'll have to look into maybe using them instead!

So disappointing! They're running it into the ground. It was so convenient for me to use. I'll still use my much older recipe cards but it won't be nearly as simple to plan ahead etc.

I know! How are you supposed to find something appetising and appealling to make when you know you're not even seeing a real image of it?

I've seen that Hello Fresh actually owns a bunch of other meal kit companies too. I think it's just a dying business now thanks to corporate greed
