I ordered a Yellow Miniature Rose Plant in a basket with a bow from FlowerShopping.com for a friend who was recovering from surgery. What was delivered was nothing close, just a few cut flowers (including two peach roses and some chrysanthemums) loosely arranged in a glass vase, without even a bow. It wasn’t a rooted plant, wasn’t yellow roses, and wasn’t in a basket. This does not follow their own substitution policy. Before ordering, I called the company directly to get an assurance that if a substitution was necessary, I would be notified in advance so I could cancel. That did not happen. Because it was a delivered, surprise gift, I only found out about the switch when the recipient sent me a photo of the unexpected flowers much later. The card message was also mishandled. Rather than a proper florist’s enclosure, it was a folded piece of paper stuck into the arrangement, offering very brief sender information which left the recipient confused. Customer service told me a full refund would only be issued if the local florist who they used, went to the recipient’s house and took the flowers back, which is both impractical and insensitive, especially for someone recovering from surgery. This is a delivery-only business. By their logic, they are never held completely responsible and never issue full refunds unless the flowers are taken back, even if the product is completely wrong. I didn’t know about the error until it was too late because the flowers had died (which may not have happened if the intended rooting plant was delivered). Besides, I would not have wanted them to return to the home of someone recovering from surgery just to take back a gift meant to comfort her. After multiple emails, they offered to refund only 25% of the product price before delivery, plus $5 for the card error which never came. This entire experience was completely unsatisfactory! I will not use them again and recommend others look elsewhere, especially when kindness and reliability matter.
