I ordered from proflowers once to get flowers delivered to my now ex-fiancee at her work. They came in an unarranged box and unbloomed. 2 of 18 eventually bloomed. I wrote a complaint and they refunded my money plus they did it the right way without hassle. I was surprised to get a refund plus a replacement.

I sent my Aunt 1800Flowers for her 90th birthday. She loved them but my sister told me several of the flowers hadn't bloomed. I called customer service and was offered a full refund or a replacement.
In NY, there are an abundance of flower shops. After three years in Vegas, I have not noticed any.

Perhaps he used a debit card. I'm not sure if the same rules apply when you use a debit card. I seemed to remember it was harder to get your money back when using a debit card.



Never use a debit card on the internet, you are just asking for a fight when something like this happens. You can also find your whole account wiped out and fighting to get it back. Always use credit cards because it is the credit card company that has to fight it and you are out nothing while waiting for them to resolve it.

Damn, I ordered flowers for Valentine's Day Friday morning for the best delivery date I could get, FEB 12th. I tried calling 5 hours later, because I changed my mind about this woman. Well, they were hard to understand and were just running a scam on me pretending to be cancelling my order, I knew it and I stayed on the line for 20 minutes before I gave up. First red flag, the lady tells me the order was already canceled. Then she later told me I would get a cancellation confirmation email within 24 hours and would not send me an email stating this. There was no supervisor available. My hands were tied, I couldn't figure out what to do from my phone, so I had to rely on their customer service representatives. For some reason, she kept saying emaul, you would think they would try pronouncing this right, but they don't. I forgot about it, thinking maybe I would change my mind about this date. I have about 19 times, definitely don't want to go and am almost certain she will stand me up. I don't know a good reason why I can't cancel an order for flowers that won't even be delivered for 2 days now, but they won't let me.

Don't order from them unless you're sure what you want them. I don't know how this happened, but I'm stuck giving flowers to a woman I don't even trust and to a woman that will either cancel our date or ghost me. Plenty of fish in the sea.



I can’t wait to find out what happens. Maybe there’s a Hollywood happy ending after she gets the flowers.
The race is not always to the swift, nor the battle to the strong; but that is the way to bet.

It is very doubtful. I hope those flowers make her feel like the despicable thing she has become. The most likely thing is there will be a sex tape rather than a Hollywood ending.

Did you try calling their customer service line again?

" Always on My Mind" seems pretty stalkerish. I'd casually mention this forum to her and let her find this thread.

I'm With her now. She knows about the name of the flowers. I don't think she minds.
