Excessive charge

There is a $0.33 charge for each order! Unfair charge!

Amazing app!

Flexischools is absolute perfection! This app is the best thing ever for managing school orders and payments. It has made my life so much easier and completely stress-free. Everything is super organized, user-friendly, and efficient. I am so grateful for how smooth it makes everything for families. Highly recommended!

Idk

It was bad because the tuck shop didn’t have any specials like we did have before.It was the same old flavors which was really bland.

Watch out

Now the app want’s to steal your credit card data; keep it and not allow you to delete it!!
A nasty monopoly.When my child leaves school. It all over

It’s good when it works

It’s good when it works. Lately the problems have reduced so I’m happy with that. I feel it’s too much to charge a fee for both lunch orders and recess. If you place a recess and lunch order on the same day, at the same time, then only one fee should be charged, as it all adds up, especially when you order most days of the week.

On top of the order fees, there’s also fees for using credit cards etc. it just makes it costly.

Easy to use but could improve

Much more user friendly than the previous app the school used.
A couple of suggestions:
An option to leave a note for the lunch team. Occasionally they have missed an item and my child is too shy to go back for it. It’s often too much fuss to communicate this through office admin, so it would be good to directly inform them on the next order so they can add the item.
Also, food photos are so helpful so we can make better choices for the children. It would be good to strongly recommend this to schools.

Fees

I always top up the account with a minimum of $50 as it says the fee will be waved for deposits of $50 or over. I continually get charged the fee and it is disappointing. Especially as the school only accepts payment via your app and not cash at all

Good app but very high fees

Fees are charged per order and per period and per kid, which results in an unreasonably high fees.

Unreliable when I really need it!

Relied on Flexischools to order my boys lunches but half the time the system is always down!

Easy to the App for a Quick Kids Lunch

The app is easy to use and I am able to organise my kid’s lunch quickly when a trip to the shops was forgotten and there’s nothing in the house.

Easy to order lunches

This app is sooo easy to use! It’s great! The only addition is maybe to add photos but its not a biggie!

Great!

I wasn’t too impressed with an old update they did sometime ago but they have since refreshed the app and it’s a much smoother ordering system. Thank you

Over charge

They surcharcharhe os too much and they charge for every individual order in the same bill. Also charges for top up. Just for my kids school nomither way to do it. Can nit carry changes everyday. Somhave to use this app. Rubbish

Quick and Easy

Great app easy to use and great to top up when needed. Quick app that assist my child with their lunch and breakfast needs

Uniform

I have not had an issue with the lunch orders, however, tried to order uniformes through the app. Order placed on 12/01. Order prepared on 28/01. We have not received the order until mid/end March. App does not give updates about the order and/or contact details of the company preparing it so we could understand what was going on.

Not a fan of automatic up marketing

The apps ok, but up marketing automatically to your order without a choice is frustrating .. for eg, if I order my son a pie I have to buy a sauce satchel even though he doesn’t use it.

High fees for parents

I miss our old school ordering app, the fees parents pay per child per order is a lot, plus then there’s fees to even top up your account as well!

Useful and intuitive app

Makes it easy to order canteen food and buy uniforms

Once you know how to use it it’s great

The app it’s self is cuddly to set up but once you’re set up ate quite easy to navigate around as a user.
The downside is that there are fees everywhere.
A fee to add money to your account
A fee to place an order online
A fee to buy in person at school.
With 2 kids and 1 hot lunch a week I’m easily paying $2-3 per week in fees. Each 10 week term that’s $25, so about $100 a year in fees.
The school will sometimes also have parents pay for additional activities through Flexischools so the fees can really add up.

Convenient

The app is great for convenience but school lunch choices are limited. It also doesn’t allow for pre-ordering for the full week (when needed) so you incur a surcharge for each order.
