      I wanted to surprise my girlfriend with a beautiful bouquet of flowers so I went online and Bloomex website came up showing beautiful flowers and a promise of same day delivery. So I picked some flowers out, got the upgraded deluxe package, more flowers than showed in the picture and a vase. After 2 days of no flowers delivered I phoned Bloomex only to be told it is not their problem and told me to phone their courier. So I phoned and the courier told me that my girlfriend has to call in to track down her own flowers, completely ruining the surprise. She was told her flowers would be in the following day. So after a week of no flowers delivery and us calling Bloomex and their courier everyday trying to get our flowers, I demanded a full refund. I was told no problem, I will get my refund and that I just had to wait 2 days for 'Accounting' to call. That call never came. So we kept calling Bloomex and their courier everyday until it was 2 weeks since Bloomex took my order and my hard earned money that her flowers finally arrived. They were the smallest ugliest flowers we have ever seen. They looked nothing like in their advertisement picture. They were not nearly as big as in the picture as a regular sized bunch. Plus I ordered the deluxe size bouquet. What was even more shocking was the fact that the vase I paid for was broken in several pieces. Not once did Bloomex call us during the 2 weeks we were waiting, we had to call them everyday. Their customer service was the worst I've ever dealt with. Broken promises and lies. Total scam. I wish I would have looked into the company first before buying from them because I learned there are 100's of people who were scammed by Bloomex. How can this company still be in business? How come they are allowed on the internet to false advertise and take people's hard earned money and rip them off?! How?!!

      The area where the order has to be delivered is outside of local delivery areas. Our production facilities provide Same Day delivery to ***************, ******, ****************, *********, *******, ********,********, ******* and *****************. Overnight courier (next business day) will be used for delivery outside of these areas. Saturday and Monday delivery is only available within Same Day delivery zones.The order dispatched for delivery via FedEx Couriers originally with tracking number ************, was delayed in transit due to missed connection. We are unable to issue a refund for orders that are confirmed, prepared or sent out for delivery. However, a resend was accepted by a customer on 12 of November 2024 on the call with customer service representative. Since customer is still remains unsatisfied, we would like to offer a replacement order free of charge yet again. Alternatively, we could send a gourmet basket of equal value or issue a store credit that the customer can use at any time in the future.
      We apologize for any inconvenience caused.

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me. I hope that the bouquet is a deluxe bouquet and with a vase (not in pieces) like I first paid for and that they actually look like the flowers in the advertisement, not like the tiny bouquet I recieved that didn't look anything like in the ad.

      On November 9th 2024 I placed an order for a deluxe bouquet through ************************* with a scheduled delivery date of November 12th 2024. After taxes and delivery fees I paid $56 for the bouquet. The specific bouquet that I ordered was the summer solstice in ***** jar. I paid an extra $7 for the deluxe feature which would ensure my bouquet would be full. They asked the nature of the bouquet to which I identified as being sympathy. I also submitted a message to be delivered along with the flowers. My father received these flowers today and shared a photo with me. The box had the shipping label with the word "sympathy" in capital letters on the outside, inside the box, which seems a little inappropriate to me personally. The flowers were completely out of water, in a ***** style drinking mug. They were incredibly sparse, and look nothing like the photo promised. The stems were cut at oblong lengths and there were no filler greenery. As the flowers had been without water, and had been on a delivery truck in the cold, they were not in the best health either. Many of the edges had been browned and some of the flowers weren't even open yet. The message that I had asked to be delivered with the flowers was on a torn piece of white paper at the bottom of the box. The photo my father shared was after he filled the cup with water and fluffed the flowers a little bit. There is nowhere to reach out to customer service on the website other than to phone their Central ordering location. Through the email when you click on "contact us" it sends you to a page with addresses of head offices only, suggesting to send a letter to HR in those locations.

      We are unable to process cancellations for any order that has already been prepared, or is already out with the courier for delivery. As per the photo received we would like to confirm the order was sent with minor substitution. Due to our order volume fluctuation, we reserve the right to substitute with similar products of equal or greater value. To ensure longer enjoyment, our flowers are delivered pre-watered and not fully bloomed. With simple flower care recipients can enjoy the delivery in full. The message was printed on paper, as no greeting card was purchased. **************** contacted the customer on November 10, 2024, via phone at ************ and email at ************************* regarding the substitution. Please note that our official email for inquiries is always *********************************************************.

      While we are unable to process a refund for the case, we would like to issue customer a complementary store credit for future use.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      No attempt of contact was made regarding flower substitution. No messages were left on voicemail, I have no missed calls, And didn't receive any emails. Regardless , the bouquet was missing substantial greenery and flowers - how are tiny red flowers and appropriate substitution for SUNFLOWERS? I was not asking for a cancellation, so the response from the provider is null. Ripped paper is never appropriate for a message along with flowers. The jar did not match the photos either - they literally came in a drinking mug. I want a refund as store credit is useless to me since I will NEVER order from here again!

      I attempted to place an order for flowers for my ******* birthday, was prompted to create an account, and then proceeded to enter my information and billing information before entering the delivery details. When I attempted to enter the address I was unable to complete the order, I had then given up and closed out of the website. I had never confirmed a delivery address. I was then charged on my credit card for the order prior to entering delivery information. When I called they offered a store credit despite not confirming the order! I had to call back twice and still did not confirmation if the refund was approved.

      I ordered flowers to be delivered to my Mom for Mothers Day. I paid extra to have them actually delivered the Friday before (so two days before Mothers Day). I figured if they were busy on Mothers Day at least she would have them. They were not delivered on the Friday despite the tracking information saying they were out for delivery. I called the following day to get an update and was told by a sleepy sounding agent they would be prioritized and delivered that day, which was Saturday. They were not delivered and when I called on Sunday which was now Mothers Day, I was told the same thing. However they were not delivered even then. On Monday morning I called again first thing and I asked to cancel the order. I understood at this point that the flowers had been sitting in the back of a delivery truck for * days and I was certain they were not going to be in very good condition. I told him very clearly not to deliver these flowers. The agent I spoke with said he would cancel the order, the flowers would not be delivered, and I would get a refund. I was fine with that and appreciated that I was going to get my money back. * hours later I get a call from my mom to say the flowers had been delivered, despite me specifically asking for them not to be. They were wilted, dying and delivered in a box even though I paid extra for a vase. Ridiculous. I emailed back and forth with the company trying to get my money back and they eventually stopped responding and of course never refunded my money. I have ordered from this company several times and they have never delivered the flowers on the day I have selected and paid for but this was really bad. In my opinion this is completely unethical and I am disgusted with the way this situation was handled.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      I feel this unsatisfactory. I was told by one of their employees I would get a refund. It is unacceptable to be told I would get a refund and then told oh wait- never mind. I understand they have their policies but this was an exceptional circumstance. Unless the policy is also to charge customers for services they cannot deliver, as not only were the flowers in the back of a truck for * days, delivered * days late, we never received the vase that was paid for. And then I was lied to about receiving a refund. So if I am forced to make an exception for this ridiculous service, Bloomex can make an exception on their policy too. What good is replacement order now? In terms of a credit, the only way I would consider shopping here again is if I get a refund on this order. So if that is not an option I definitely do not want a credit.

      We are unable to issue a refund for orders that are confirmed, prepared or sent out for delivery. Bloomex is not responsible for delays happening with third party couriers in transit, however Bloomex would like to step towards the customer's satisfaction and keep an offer of a replacement order free of charge, or a gift basket of equal value, or issue a full price store credit that the customer can use at any time in the future.

      This is not an acceptable offer. I paid Bloomex to deliver these flowers. Therefore Bloomex certainly should be responsible for the courier they hire. That is beyond the scope of the consumer to worry about and I know plenty of companies that do take full responsibility for this and will reimburse in an acceptable way. The issue of the vase I paid for and did not receive has not been addressed here either. The lack of decent customer service is ************.

On April **,  after multiple calls, Bloomex’s customer service told me a bouquet was in Kitimat city center delivery depot( which is located inside Hair salon). Our friend didn’t receive any calls that it was in depot. She went to the delivery depot only to find out that a flower box was sitting on the floor in room temperature ( no cooler to keep flowers ) for *** days. When she saw wilted flowers and broken vase. She couldn’t accept it. Please see attached photos. Bloomex offered to resend flowers and $** a store credit on April **. After many calls and emails, on April **, they offered me two options 1—resend the order no additional cost or 2–issue an in-store credit. At the time I was not in a mood to accept either option. I requested a full refund but they wrote this was against their policy. Bloomex is unwilling to issue a refund to resolve this matter.

      As Bloomex claimed they did every possible way to  resolve  this issue,

      To give more detail,

      Recipient in ******* said     
      1-Purolator never left any notice on the front  door or back porch to be pick up. 
       2-they never called a bouquet was in  depot (Kitimat). 
       3-Wilted flowers & broken vase

      I do not understand their customer service policy , the service was horrendous. If full refund is not acceptable, try to offer customer 
      store credit. This is totally zero stars service. 
      $****** is not a small amount of money, is this the way Bloomex

Messaged company and said not enough detail in picture, which is the only one I have. No further communication has happened regarding my complaint.

      We regret to hear that the services didn't meet customer's expectations.
      We take quality issues very seriously and seek to provide fresh and beautiful flowers at all times and for all orders. The initial complaint received stated bad quality of flowers and our customer service agent requested customer to send us photos to the email address. We are unable to issue a refund for orders that are confirmed, prepared or sent out for delivery. However, the image provided does not include the full bouquet, making it difficult for us to assess its overall quality. As customer's satisfaction is our top priority, we would like to offer a a store credit of $** that the customer can use at any time in the future.
      We apologize for any inconvenience caused.
      Thank you,
      Bloomex

      I am rejecting this response because:

      I have used this service twice recently and to continue to support this business I would required more value to go towards another purchase. $** simply does not go far enough.

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me. If you can credit my credit card that would be even better.

      I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with my recent order (#******) placed on May **, 2024. I ordered the ****** ***** - Super Size arrangement, which cost $*****.When the flowers arrived on the afternoon of May ****, 2024, they were not as depicted on your website. The quality was substandard, and the arrangement did not match the image for which I paid an extra amount. I contacted your customer service immediately via email and provided photos to show the discrepancy and the poor quality of the flowers received. Despite this, I was informed that a refund would not be issued.This is a clear case of ***** advertisement. The bouquet lasted only two days, and the flowers appeared to be the cheapest available. This experience has been very disappointing, especially as it was my first time ordering from Bloomex.I have reached out multiple times since then, but the response has remained the same that a refund cannot be provided. I find this unacceptable and request a resolution to this matter. I expect a full refund for the order due to the misrepresentation and poor quality of the product.Thank you for your attention to this matter.

      On June * I ordered a bouquet of flowers and a vase to be delivered to a friend of mine next-day (June *). I provided the recipients full correct address (which is a condo with a **** concierge), email, phone number, buzzer code. On June * the order tracking status changed from in transit to investigation. I called Bloomex to inquire about this status change and was told the delivery driver could not complete the delivery because the concierge would not allow him inside. I inquired with Bloomex if the driver attempted to call the recipient and was told the drivers are not given the receipts phone numbers.Bloomex offered to reattempt the delivery the following day, June **, or refund to store credit, less the $** delivery fee. I requested to change the delivery address to my office, down the street from the original delivery address, and was told an additional $** delivery fee would be charged, due to this change. I pushed back and had this fee waived and they agreed to deliver to my office on June **. I received a call shortly after and was told the driver already left the warehouse for the day and delivery would have to be rescheduled to June **. I requested full refund of the order and was told this was against their policy. I requested that the order be cancelled and the matter escalated to a manager. I am currently waiting to hear back from a Bloomex manager regarding the status of my refund.

      We are unable to issue a refund for orders that are confirmed, prepared or sent out for delivery. An email and a phone conversation received pass *pm. Investigation caused by a changing address and waiving a redelivery fee caused a reasonable delay as our drivers leaving warehouses at *pm exactly. However, we still would like to offer a replacement order free of charge. Alternatively, we could send a gift basket of equal value or issue a store credit that the customer can use at any time in the future.
      We apologize for any inconvenience caused.

      Complaint: ********

      I am rejecting this response because I would like a full refund for my order, as I have not received the goods ordered in a reasonable amount of time. 

      I will have no use for a store credit from Bloomex as I do not intend to order from this company in the future, after this experience. 

      Sincerely,

      After reviewing our records and the relevant documentation, it appears that cancellation was not an available option for a case our customer had.
