Mother's Day complaint
1) I spent 90CAD on the bouquet (Fields of Europe) including all the special surcharges for morning delivery, etc. The delivery was late and my mom decided to go shopping after waiting for four hours at home. The flowers and vase were left at the door in a box while she was away, not arranged.
2) On the web picture, I saw bright yellow lilies, red roses and daisies... but the box at the door contained white carnation, chrysanthemum and some small purple flowers. Chinese only send white flowers on funerals... Imagine how my mom would feel on Mother's Day when she opened the box!!!
Being an ocean apart from my mother, I naturally would have to put a lot of trust in the internet service providers for gift delivery because occassionaly I want to show her how much I love her and miss her... I feel betrayed by 1800flowers not because of the $$ I spent on some grocery shop quality flowers but when I imagine how my mom must have felt opening up the box of white carnation and mum... the disappointment on her face...
I am usually quite easy-going but this time I have to let everyone to know my experience... I would not want to see another disappointed face because of 1800flowers.ca...

Delivery and condition of product
I placed an order on 5/5/09 for delivery of a flower basket by 5/8/09 (In time for Mothers Day).
I received a confirmation that my order would be delivered by 5/8/09.
On 5/9/09 I received an e-mail confirmation that my order was just shipping and would be delivered by 5/8/09. Excuse me? It just shipped, obviously it was not going to make it there as promised.
I contacted the company by e-mail and advised them I would never order through them again as this was the 2nd time this happened with this same company. They sent me a "credit of $20.00" for future use :(
My Mom received the gift basket today 5/11. The box was damaged, the basked overturned and dirt all over the place. It was supposed to be the daffodil garden. The tips are broken on the plants that have started sprouting. Not only was her Mother's day gift late, it is totally defective. But hey, I have my $20.00 credit for future purchase!
So much for their 100% satisfaction guarantee.

Did not deliver flowers
I ordered flowers for my mother on Friday before Mother's Day. They were to be delivered on Friday. On sunday, Mother's Day, they still had not been delivered. I had not been notified that they were not delivered and when I called for status, I was told they didn't know why and all they could do was reschedule for Tuesday. Told them I wanted my money back and they told me 5 - 7 business days to credit my credit card. I work in service. To credit a card, you chose the credit option and run the transaction. When you post that days receipts, the credit goes through just like a charge. They can take my money but not deliver as promised? NOT good business practice. I will NEVER use them again and will tell EVERYONE I KNOW about their incompetance and poor customer service.

failed to deliver
Place an order on May 1, 2009 for delivery on May 8, 2009. This was to be a Mothers Day arrangement for my boyfriends mother. Needless to say, it was not delivered on May 8 and when I called I spoke to a Marco. I was told by him that they would issue 50%credit and have my flowers delivered on May 9. I called today (May 9) only to find out my flowers ARE NOT being delivered and a 100% credit was given. No one called to inform me and my cell is listed. As I am typing this, i have still YET to recvd notification of my flowers. I expressed my dissatisfaction and poor customer service to the rep and told them i would never order flowers from them again. INSTEAD I ORDERED FROM THRIFTYFLORIST.NET.
Damage Resulting
Their lack of customer service and professionlism caused me a great deal of stress as tomorrow is MOTHERS DAY. Plus I had my boyfriends mom stay home yesterday to get the flowers that NEVER showed. Im so embarrassed!!!

Scam and cheating
Order from 1800Flowers was not shipped as promised. Someone from 1800flowers actually called me on the day of the order and advised that it was a difficult order to fill but assured me that is would be delivered prior to Christmas. I was sending this as a Christmas gift to family out of stat. As of 12/29 the order had not been delivered. I called 1800flowers and they advised the order will NOT be filled because they could not find a remote flower shop to put the order together and deliver it. THEN why put the items out on the website and take the consumers money prior to KNOWING the items are available for shipment/delivery. And at the very least they could have told me!! I waited and waited and finally called them and then I found out the order would not be delivered. They did offer my money back. We will see if that comes through. I DO NOT recommend using 1800Flowers and I DO NOT have anything good to say about them and this was the first and LAST time I will use them!!!

Bad service
On the morning of Dec. 24, I visited 1800Flowers.com to order flowers for my mother. Their website advertised same day delivery. I placed an order. My card was charged. No flowers were delivered on 12/24. None were delivered on 12/25. None on 12/26. Still none on 12/27. No update was issued for my order. No one called me. No one emailed me. I called on Saturday 12/27 to cancel. I still don't have my refund on my credit card. They say I should wait 5 to 10 days for that. I think you should get your flowers from some other source.

Poor quality and not like advertised
I received as a gift, flowers in September that were ordered from 1800Flowers and the condition and quality of the flowers were very substandard, and most died within 3 days of receiving even though they had the required watering and indoor temperature. Then just 4 days ago I received a Christmas gift, again from 1800flowers, Martha Stewart collection, a gift of lilies in a silver vase. The photo in their advertisement and online look very nice. However, what I received was skimpy and in 4 days are wilted, even though cared for properly. There were only 3 stems of lilies in the large vase, and the fill in decor looks nothing like the photo in their brochure and had broken branches. I feel bad for the gift giver spending a considerable amount of money and 1800flowers sending the recipient such poor quality flowers. Save your money and call the person and tell them you love them or take them out for dinner. 1800flowers is a ripoff.

Unauthorized billing
I ordered flowers from 800flowers and later find that the order included a membership to livwell. This membership debited $11.99 from my account each month. I was unable to obtain information from 800flowers and searched the web for Livwell. I sent an email to 4 companies that I found with this name and asked them to discontinue debiting my account. I did not give my address or bank information as I would think if they debited my account they had this information.
2 politely replied that they did not have an account for me and I replied to them thank you for checking. One did not reply and the last livwell replied by telling me that they were reporting me to the Federal Police for scam. For making an inquiry? (I did not give them personal information of where to send anything only a request to cease the debit and refund the $11.99 back the same way that the debited the amount) Very rude and unprofessional.
I have in the meantime taken the time off work to go to my bank and prevent future debits but this company in Australia is not one that seems to run a professional business. I will never use this company and would not recommend it to anyone.

Unauthorized billing
I had just checked my account and saw I had been debited from TLG Livwell $11.99. I had sent an inquiry in to my Bank on the transaction because I have seen it on the account and never really knew what it was. My husband deals with the account and he is deployed at the moment. I decided to look up this company and found all Consumer Complaints.
As I was reading through all of the complaints it made sense. I had ordered flowers on Mother's Day in may and now it's october and I am getting debited from this company. I called 1800flowers immediately and as I was talking to the first customer service rep. She hung up on me because I refused to be transferred to Livewell because I had read that no one has received an answer. So... she kept interrupting me said, well... there is nothing I can do for you. I said, well... we will be on the phone for awhile until you can figure this out. She said, No we won't, and HUNG UP on me!!!
I was so offset that the CUSTOMER SERVICE representative responded with such sass. I called back yet again and the second rep said I know exactly what to do and put me on old and then put me on hold again and had transferred me over without telling me. I had the new rep tell me that I had to leave a message with Dave something or other. I had told her about how people have been getting signed up for this without there knowledge. She said, well you need to just talk to Dave but... If he doesn't answer leave a voicemail. I had told her, I will but, I am making a complaint to the Better Business Bureau. She paused for a moment and I thought she would actually help but, didn't even care. I think she was trying to think of what the BBB is.
So, I got transferred yet again and left a voicemail for David because of course his phone was off.
It was a loss of 60.00 so far and the first is coming up soon.
