    NEVER buy from 1-800-FLOWERS

    Am I the only one that got fucked by these guys today? should i call VISA and cancel?

    I put 2 orders in with 1-800-flowers , 3 days ago.. today, both others went undelivered and after 20 calls to customers service , i finally got a live person that said 'sorry we cant give you status on your orders. if they arent delivered today, we will deliver tomorrow with an apology note'. they also offered me a $20 credit towards next order..

    hey 1-800-FLOWERS.. GO FUCK YOURSELF..

    I will make sure that everyone knows how much of a crappy operation they have on Valentine's day of all days.

    support your local florist when you need flowers sent to someone or an occasion.

    thats all,
    /end rant.

              Why not place an order in advance, assuming everyone is doing what you are and placing an order right before the day? I'm sure they got completely overwhelmed and fucked. They have always been on the dot for delivery at non peak times for me.

                  That is BS. Call up your credit card company and file a dispute. It will fall under "item not as described" and then just explain that even though they delivered them, it was late and not delivered on the date promised. This made the product useless to you. It wont fix the current problem but you should get a full refund.

                      I think you've over estimated your own reach. You're not going to to let everyone, most people, some people or even .01% of people know.

                      You think? Here's some other great tips for life you might want to write down:

                      1) Remember to breath air
                      2) Don't lay face down in a pool of water
                      3) Downed live power lines are not toys for playing with
                      .

                          A few years ago I ordered mother's day flowers from them. They never arrived on the day despite paying extra for it to happen. After many calls they arrived a week late and mostly dead.

                                  My personal experience with them differs, though. Never had a problem, but if I did, Brent's way is certain the best way to handle it from your perspective.

                                          hey FUCKHEAD, I ordered 3 full days in advance, if they were 'OVERWHELMED' on Valentines day, they should have given a courtesy call. This was completely handled wrong.

                                          Anyway, moral of the story is, when shit matters, dont goto the big guys.

                                                      They did the SAME thing to my gf on her birthday, wound up getting to her 3 days late.

                                                                  That flower hotline has deals with flower shops and sends them the orders... so if you didn't get your delivery it is probably the shop closest to you that deals with them that fucked up. All florists deal with 1-800-flowers, 800 doesn't have their own stores. At least that is how it was 10+ years ago when I worked at a flower shop.

                                                                              Anyway, moral of the story is, when shit matters, dont goto the big guys.
                                                                              Fuckhead? It was a friendly suggestion. No need at all to be an asshole about it. Unless that's just how you act around people, personality disorders are common these days.

                                                                                                                  The thing is though, it might not be all their fault. What they do is take your order then forward it to a florist in their network, so it's then their hands, not 1-800-flowers, then again, perhaps they should do better follow-ups on complaints with their florists.

                                                                                                                    Comment

                                                                                                                          instead, i find local florists in the area and call in the order and speak to someone personally. i ordered flowers to this girl's office that i am seeing and called and spoke to the lady about making sure it was there in a certain time window (even tho she was sick today and didnt go to work ). but when you have that advantage it will mostly work out for you.

                                                                                                                          sucks you got screwed by them tho

                                                                                                                              They gave me the run around. Refused to give a refund but offered gift certificates as well.

                                                                                                                              Fuck that shit. One call to Amex and I charged the whole order back.

                                                                                                                              When you are being over charged to begin with they owe it to you to deliver when promised.

All florists deal with 1-800-flowers, 800 doesn't have their own stores. At least that is how it was 10+ years ago when I worked at a flower shop.
                                                                                                                                  It's still the same way. The local flower shop dropped the ball, here.

Wasn't on a major holiday. The local florist I generally used fucked up last year and the "guaranteed delivery before 5pm" turned into 8pm that night, well after both of us were already at home. If I would've known, I could have had someone else deliver them for me and save the $10 delivery fee.

The local florist gets a call/fax from 1 800 florist with your order. The order gets a low priority based on lower profit margin because of 1 800 florist's cut. Also probably delayed payment.

                                                                                                                                                              Why involve a middle man? Why involve the internet in what should be a personal gesture, if you can't go to a local florist at least call one.
