    I did my research and ordered from 1-800-Flowers.com. Please look at the picture of what SHOULD have been delivered to my daughter and new granddaughter. What she got was a bouquet half the size of the Medium one shown, no ribbon, and a smiley face Mylar balloon with “Baby Girl” written across it with a sharpie. The flowers did not even appear fresh. I paid for the passport shipping which was 19.99 so my total charge for this order was $84.76. My daughter sent pictures. The “Wow” factor I should have gotten was completely ruined. This is my daughters first baby and she is in the Navy in Virginia and I’m unable to be there. It makes me very angry that I paid for such ** service. 1-800-Flowers will only refund $31. on the flowers and the $19.99 for the passport shipping. My advice is to call a local florist and order directly. I’m so very disappointed.

    I placed an order for a specific arrangement. This was extremely important as the arrangement reflected sentiments for a serious yet tender purpose. The flowers were delivered the next day as requested and were exactly as pictured on the website. I have ordered from this business before and once again I was very satisfied. Also, I was able to use a promotional code with no trouble.

    I ordered flowers for my mom’s birthday & paid an extra delivery fee for the day I needed them delivered & purchased the annual passport subscription. Of course, thinking this was a a good business. However, my mom's flowers were not delivered even with the additional charges & when I called after 8 as directed due to flowers being delivered as late as 8 she said the florist closes at 8 & nothing they can do to have them delivered. The best they could do to rectify the situation is call my mom or give me a $3.99 refund, (seriously) or cancel my order. Obviously, I canceled the order but to refund the annual membership I have to wait on a call back from a different department tomorrow... This call took over 30 mins as is & now preparing for round 2 tomorrow! I think my point is made & I regress.

    Terrible communication and customer service. I have used 1-800-flowers for two orders. The first order was placed for my wife's birthday. The week of her birthday I called to cancel the order due to a forecasted winter storm that would happen on the delivery date. I was told that the order could not be canceled, even after persisting and staying on the phone for 30 minutes to explain and re-explain my frustration with the situation. Finally, they offered to change the order date to a later date (after her birthday), refund shipping, and gave me $20 for a future order.

    The second order was for my mom on Mother's Day. I ordered the day before, paid rush shipping to guarantee arrival on Mother's Day, and used the $20 gift certificate to bring the price down to a palatable level. Lo and behold, the order never even shipped and my mom received nothing on Mother's Day, the week after, or even a month after. I had to call A MONTH LATER to find out what happened; oh, the rep told me, "we were out of stock of that item..." Thanks for letting me know. I got a refund and re-issued gift certificate as an apology. No, they didn't ship the item to my mom for free as a way of apologizing. They simply refunded my gift certificate, so it wasn't really any loss on their part. Never again will I let this company ruin an opportunity to show love to my family members. Stay away from them and call a local florist directly.

    Custom Wind Chimes ordered 5/30 as a funeral gift. Estimated arrival at residence on or before 6/5/19. Called on 6/17 to an overseas call center. They informed me that they don't know what happened, it was a problem on their end. Being that this is the fourth consecutive order that has arrived late or not at all, and I pay for the stupid subscription of the passport membership, I asked for a manager. I questioned, "What can you do to make this right." She first offered $20 store credit, that was not going to do it. We settled on 50% refund and confirmation of shipment, which I really feel like the amount of business I've spent over the years, it should have been comp'ed. Needless to say this is where our business relationship ends.

If I order 2 days ahead is because I want them to delivered on 6/14/19 not 6/15/19. Not just that they didn’t processed the replacement nor wanted to refund me. Basically they told me to suck it up.

    I called to order flowers. They were not delivered. I called to find out why. They said, "Sorry will deliver tomorrow." they did not deliver tomorrow. I called to ask them why. They said they would deliver them the next day sorry. I asked them why they weren’t delivered. Then they said they didn’t have a florist in the area! So I asked them how they were going to deliver them the next day. The man said they probably wouldn’t. I asked for a full refund. I never got the refund.

    Upon learning of a childhood friend’s sudden passing, I immediately contacted 1-800-Flowers online (on 5/29/19) to place an order for the viewing and funeral. I was very clear on my order, i.e., where the flowers were to be sent as well as that this was a “FUNERAL” and that I needed next day delivery. The on-line process seemed easy enough and after finding a perfect purple flower bouquet in a basket, which was my friend’s favorite color, I also found the option to have next day delivery for a small extra fee. To ensure there would be no hiccups with the order, I paid extra for the next day delivery. Not sure why the arrangements were made by the family last minute but I figured if you offered expediting orders this would work.

    I checked and rechecked the site on 5/30/19 to see if my order number had been processed. When the evening of the funeral viewing came and went, Friday morning (the day of the funeral 5/31/19), the status had not changed from PENDING, I opened the online chat option. All I got was an apology and an offer to “message” the local florist. In this day and age, who knows what “messaging” between businesses really meant. This now being the day of the funeral, I needed something done and quickly!

    I had an appointment Friday morning, so I called 1-800-Flowers from my car. By the time I got to a customer service rep, all she could do was apologize and offered to message the florist. I asked FIVE times for a manager and she insisted she could fix this. She then offered to reroute the flowers to another address. What good does that do when you wanted the flowers sent to for a funeral which is where the deceased’s viewing and funeral would be held?

    The customer service rep put me on hold and after several minutes, I had to hang up to meet my appointment. I called back an hour and fifteen minutes later. When I finally got a second CS rep, she offered nothing different from the previous rep and accused me of yelling. YES, I was yelling because I couldn’t believe how insensitive and completely incapable your CUSTOMER SERVICE people were. THESE WERE FLOWERS FOR A FUNERAL, which means this is a time-sensitive delivery.

    Again, I asked for a manager at least five times during this conversation and she insisted she was “experienced” to handle my “issue.” An issue 1-800-Flowers staff created! I told the rep., I wanted her to contact the florist and call me back with a status and a manager to call me back. She insisted she couldn’t call me back and that I had to remain “on the line” for her to go to another line and call the florist. I insisted that she call me back, since my number was on the order to begin with and your company was not going to make me late for the funeral! She finally agreed to take my number and call me back.

    After another hour, a manager (Erika) called me. All she could do was apologize. She said she tried the local florist but believed they evidently weren’t in yet and said she would message them. I said, “You know what, cancel the order and credit my credit card. You cannot guarantee anything at this point and I am done with your company!” All 1-800-Flowers' staff is trained to do is apologize. If 1-800-Flowers really wanted to make this right, the first person I spoke to could have gotten a manager, called me back and guaranteed to me that they would make this right and refund half the amount of my order for having not made the delivery for my friend’s viewing.

    Not only was I upset about my friend’s passing but this company took NO INITIATIVE to rectify this situation with the first phone call. No one should have to grieve through a loved one’s death in conjunction with trying to get a flower order placed. Not sure if it was the employees’ incompetency to process online orders or the employees’ incompetency to find florists reliable enough to complete a flower order. I will never use this company again. What an absolute disgrace considering what this company used to be like. They need to review their company’s mission and retrain their customer service reps or just close up shop!

    I called in my order as I wanted it to be exact. Of course I felt like I was talking to someone in another country. I was very specific in my order that it had to be delivered between 9 am and 12 pm as my significant other only worked until 2:30 pm and didn't want to chance them not getting to her. It is a very important occasion. It was also scheduled for a Friday delivery. So I keep checking the status of delivery and at 1 pm it's still showing as not having left the shop. I call customer service and they tell me that I did not request the 9-12 delivery even though I paid for it, just that the flowers were to be delivered during the day after 9 am. WRONG.

    So my special surprise never made it to her before she left. Not only that, they had the address as " Vista Park Way" rather than "Vista Parkway". Another sign whomever took the order was not competent as I even spelled it for them. SO when entered into a GPS who knows what came up for the delivery person. I can't believe I paid $100 for this kind of service. And to boot, now the flowers will sit in her office all weekend just to start drying out before she even gets them. I called customer service and they told me there was nothing they could do. I am so upset. Never again will I use this company.

    My mother retired and I was very excited to send her a large arrangement of flowers for her last day of school as a teacher. I chose an early time slot for them to deliver, as schools close at 4 pm. They did not arrive on time, and I had to reach out to the local florist who was delivering them. It was very confusing as I had to deal with 1-800-Flowers AND the local florist who made the arrangement. After multiple phone calls, they told me they could not deliver on that day. They said they would have to deliver the next day, which was very upsetting as this was my mom’s last day of work. After this whole mess, when my mom finally did receive the flowers, they were SO small. I could have paid $15 for this arrangement at another store. Instead I spent almost $100 for late delivery, a small floral arrangement, and poor customer service. Just terrible.

She tried to save it but it was completely dead within two days. I was very disappointed to find this out. I ordered a plant and not cut flowers because I wanted her to have something that would last a long time.

    Zero stars would be more appropriate. Ordered flowers to be delivered to my Wife at her work on our 25th anniversary. Paid extra for a specific window time of day they offered as she only works particular hours mid-day. Flowers were not delivered at all, and when complaining to a company rep over chat they offered to waive the delivery charge and give me a $20 discount on my next order. What hubris, to think that I will ever order from them again after this. They didn't even try to contact me and tell me they may not make the delivery on time.

    After the next day, the order confirmation said delivered, but nothing came. On another lengthy chat session they finally agreed to a full refund, after first trying for a 50% refund. Can you believe? They wanted to split the difference? So, in the end all they did was give me my money back, after investing time to deal with the reps and a missed once in a lifetime opportunity, I don't think that makes up for it.

    Their customer service is very good, polite and professional. However, best to visit a local florist. Customer may not get what is pictured, and the problem is even if it states local florist delivery, it may come by FedEx. It's embarrassing to have a box delivered and the recipient has to arrange their own flowers. What brightens their day is a delivery of a beautifully arranged bouquet. The others issue is if it's a business, one would like the arrangement delivered early, so the recipient can enjoy all day. Mine was delivered near closing. Go local.

    I ordered "Her Special Bouquet by Southern Living" which was presented in a white pitcher. My bouquet was described as an "all around arrangement" for $49.00. When I arrived at the delivery site the arrangement was half an arrangement with a preponderance of greenery and only half the number of flowers promised. Since this was for a table centerpiece, what was delivered was not useful. I asked for a refund and was offered an apology and a new bouquet.

    Because this was for a reunion and the event was concluded, I again asked for a refund. Again I was offered an other bouquet and an apology. I explained that the event was over and all parties had gone home and remarkably I received a third apology and an offer for a replacement bouquet! I informed the person that there would be no one to receive the flowers and reiterated that I wanted a refund. Each time 1-800-Flowers wrote to me it was a different person. Finally I was offered half a refund and yes, another apology.

    Any other business would have had one person handle a complaint like this and frankly would have gladly refunded my money with a promise to improve their procedures. This would have gone a long way in retaining any confidence I would have had for the company. Neither the product nor the customer service I experienced was satisfactory and I would not recommend using 1-800-Flowers to anyone.

    I ordered flowers for my mom for Mother's Day. 2 dozen roses. When she received them the stems were dry. 6 of the roses were dead in less than 24 hours. I emailed 1-800-Flowers.com to complain. They offered to send out another bouquet of my choice at no charge the next day. I picked one and they confirmed my choice. The next day came and went and she did not get anything. I complained again and they said they would not only send the new choice but refund half my cost for the 1st order within 24 hours. Well, here we are, May 24th and she never received the 2nd delivery and I have never received a refund. That is the last time I use this company.

    I ordered 24 multi colored roses on May 3, 2019 to be delivered on May 9th to my mom to avoid the Mother's day rush. My mom received her roses around 8pm on My 9th. They were all either brown, dead or falling apart. I called customer service and they would not send a redelivery till Wednesday the 15th. Not happy with that answer but I had no choice. Wednesday came and STILL NO FLOWERS! I called customer service and they said the Arrangement I had ordered was no longer available and would deliver 24 assorted roses on Friday. Once again, Friday came and NO flowers!! So I called customer service AGAIN... This time they told me that the roses were not delivered cause the florist was out of them, but they would send an arrangement comparable to what I ordered and would be delivered Tuesday May 21st. (All these times I was never notified of the non-delivery.)

    Surprisingly my mom finally got her roses. 12 pink roses to be exact with lilies in a pink vase. Nothing like what I ordered and even though the flowers are alive and look ok they are still dingy looking with little brown spots all over the flowers and leaves. My advice... DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY!! Everything about them is awful from the flowers to customer service (which is all outsourced, they barely speak/understand English and they never deviate from their scripts!).

    The first time I tried ordering flowers was for my daughter's birthday. They were to be delivered to her at gymnastics practice and didn't come. I called after practice and was told that they tried contacting to let me know they were rejected by the florist and they had tried contacting me. They NEVER tried contacting me... At this point I told them I expected a refund of my money and they told me they were still being sent but to be delivered on another day. I explained to them that that would not work since she won't be at Gymnastics on the day they were talking about and the whole point was to have them delivered on her birthday. After 45 minutes of arguing and her finally taking to the manager my money was refunded and I received a $20 off code for my next purchase.

    Well I tried it again today and guess what, same thing!! Nobody ever tried to contact me, however, customer service says there is a note that I hung up (even though I didn't). This is the 2nd time I have tried ordering from 1-800 Flowers and both times have been a bust. When I call and am told they will be delivered a different day, that is unacceptable. Typically there is a special occasion when people order flowers and if I am spending $50-$70 for flowers they should be delivered on the day I pick, especially since it says they will be when I placed the order. Last time I was given a $20 gift card to try them again, which I used on this order. I had to cancel this order because it won't be delivered today and they will not reissue the $20 gift card back... What a joke. They keep trying to push to have them delivered on another day but why/how do they not understand why it doesn't work like that????

    Ordered Mother's Day flowers- large expensive arrangements for mom and very elderly, sick mom in law. I received an email stating that my mother in law flowers were delivered. So a few days later when we spoke on the phone I asked how the flowers are and that is when I was told that she never got any. So- I called and spoke to someone named "Julie Mae". She apologized over and over and wanted to call herself to apologize and I said, "No - please just have them sent the next day (which would make it Wednesday after mothers day)." Btw- she implored me to give her a rating of 10 on the email she said that would follow our phone call. The next day around 9 PM east coast time I called my mother in law- expecting to hear that she received the beautiful flowers- but NO. Again- no flowers delivered..

    I called and this time- the "customer service" person put me on hold for 10 minutes and then got back to me saying, "Yep looks like she never reordered them for you". She then put me on hold two more times- and I am not kidding you- the whole call took almost an entire hour! For NOTHING! I was so over it at this point- that after she offered a coupon of 20 off for a FUTURE purchase I said, "Just forget it - please refund my order as I will not be purchasing in the future". I had been their customer for over 30 years! I never went for the cheap discount carnation type flowers- but the nicer larger arrangements, etc. NEVER again. I am NEVER ordering from them again.

    Oh and I did email the company to let them know as they would have a record of my two calls and see what happened. I am sorry to say that they must be so big that it just does not matter how the customer is treated. There are many other flowers delivery groups that now that I have looked around do a better job - and have much better prices. SO thank you to 1-800-Flowers - as from now on I will save money and time and frustration by ordering from ANYONE ELSE but them.

    I placed my order for Mother's Day 2 weeks before the date and scheduled delivery the day before Mother's Day because of my past experience with these guys. Not only did they fail to deliver the flowers on the date I requested, but they listed them as delivered on their website, so I didn't even think to call them. It was only on Mother's Day, when I called Mom, that I discovered they weren't delivered.

    So, I called 1800Flowers. They promised me that they would be delivered that day. They didn't do that either. I called them, and they offered to cancel everything and refund my money. Let me get this straight. What I tell my Mom? It's the thought that counts?? They offer me a 50% refund and a $70 certificate on the next purchase, and they will try to deliver them the next week. I asked them how can I trust them? It's been a week, and I still haven't received the $70 certificate. My advice - record your phone calls with them and get a good lawyer. They don't care.

    I've reached out to 1-800-Flowers now twice as I received zero response from my initial contact made on 05/09 via an online form fill to register my complaint that I was overcharged in conjunction with receiving the wrong item. I've attached a few screenshots of what I ordered (it came with a Happy Mother's Day balloon) vs. what I received. I ordered a PLANT & not a mixed arrangement with flowers and sticks sticking out of the top. It’s beyond a skimpy and ridiculous rendition of what I purchased. It’s representative of false & misleading advertising that falls in violation of the FTC’s Truth In Advertising Law. If this company ran out of nursery stock to not make the plant as represented in their photo, I should have been contacted to be told if I wanted to continue with my order or cancel it. The company promotes a "100% Smile Guarantee" which states that they will "make it right" or refund your order with no questions asked.

    I called 05/11/19 at approximately 8 AM EST & spoke with customer service agent Nina (agent ID **) and she told me she couldn't help me with the "100% Smile Guarantee" nor was willing to help with my other bone of contention with being overcharged. I used a 15% off coupon at checkout which brought my total to $61.36, but I then was charged $69.37. I filed a claim with Paypal as well. I have zero intention of giving these folks a dime of my $.

    I'll reach out to the FTC separately for false & misleading statements and advertising once my credit card dispute is closed. Their warranty statement & my experience in seeking a refund is in direct violation of the Federal Warranty Law, which states, “ If your ad uses phrases like "satisfaction guaranteed" or "money-back guarantee," you must be willing to give full refunds for any reason. You also must tell the consumer the terms of the offer.” The reference link is: Ihttps://www.ftc.gov/tips-advice/business-center/guidance/advertising-marketing-internet-rules-road#warranties.

    I'll attach verbatim from their website "100% Smile Guarantee" sham via: https://www.1800flowers.com/customer-service: “All of our flowers & gifts are backed by our 100% Smile Guarantee, which we're proud to stand behind. If you're not satisfied with your purchase, for any reason at all, we'll do whatever it takes to make it right. This includes offering a refund, redelivery or comparable exchange on your order. It’s all part of our promise to provide you with an excellent customer experience every single time.”

    Unfortunately, I got the bait and switch and overpaid for something I didn't order. I’ll never do business with this deceptive business again. Admission is 3/4 of the law; in the case of 1-800-Flowers.com, the other 1/4 is sheer neglect. Neglect is easier than admission; it simply results in a credit card chargeback. However, neglect will get you reported to the FTC.

    I ordered an arrangement for my mom for Mother's day (from me and my sister) to be delivered on Mother's Day weekend. Since she has a little Maltese dog that is her baby, we thought it would be cute to order the "precious pup" arrangement. When she sent me the picture of what the final product was that was delivered, I was livid. It in no way even resembled a puppy, and looked like a hot mess. I immediately contacted customer service and let them know, and they wanted to make it up to me by rescheduling another delivery to make up for it.

    First they said they did not have any flowers available until May 29th, and I let them know that was not acceptable. They asked me what my mom likes, and I said roses and the color pink, since they had since removed the precious pup bouquet off the website and I already knew they could not successfully make it anyway. They sent me a link to the Fields of Europe Romance arrangement, and told me they could deliver on Wednesday and apologized again. I reluctantly agreed and patiently waited for the confirmation and the photo from my mom. Once again, what arrived was not what was ordered, and looked like flowers I could buy at Walmart and throw in a vase.

    I immediately emailed them and told them I wanted all my money back, and that they could take back their "savings pass" they emailed to me because I would never order from them again, even if it were free. They did respond via email first saying a 50% credit and I can get another savings pass, and then sent another email saying they would refund it in full. I will never order from them again. I am so embarrassed about the quality of the flowers that my mom received for Mother's Day, especially since I was in charge of ordering them for myself and my siblings.

    I ordered Thursday. $205 for a mother's day arrangement and a wine basket that included some chocolates since it is my mom's 40th mother's day. This $205 including a $20 fee for Saturday expedited delivery (hahahahaha). I get a call Friday saying "we no have wine basket". I normally have no issue with overseas accents but this person would not turn down the game show. She was watching in the background that was so loud her voice was being drowned out. I could barely understand her. I asked her what she can offer me instead since they were out of all wine baskets.

    She offers me a basket worth half the price of the one I ordered and tells me it won't be there till Wednesday. That is unacceptable so I ask to speak to the manager. She puts me on hold for 5 minutes and claims the manager is not available. I demand to speak to the manager again. She puts me on hold again for another 5 minutes and claims the manager isn't available. This time she comes back offers to "upgrade" the package to the one priced at the same amount I paid for the wine basket that I am no longer giving but still says it won't get there until Wednesday.

    I ask to speak to the manager a 3rd time. Again she puts me on hold for 5 minutes and returns with the same garbage lie about the manager not being available again but offers to do a partial refund to compensate for the hassle and the late delivery at 50% off. I agree. She claims I will get a confirmation email in 24-48 hours and hangs up the phone before I could say anything else. I only get the customer service survey and never get a confirmation over the refund. Plus whatever she did to my order it no longer appears to exist on their website. The only proof I have that I ordered now is the auto email that I got when I submitted the order.

    Since she hung up on me before I could finish I contacted their site's chat agent and explained all the above and asked for that person to fix it. She apologizes and offers me a 20 credit to my account. I laugh and tell her that I never plan to use this service again so a credit is not acceptable. She once again offers me a forced bogus apology and claims she has now properly processed yet another 50% off refund and says I will get a confirmation email in 24-48 hours. I immediately get a customer service survey again, and never received that confirmation email.

    Saturday comes and goes no flowers no basket of lesser goodies, I am pissed. Sunday - Mothers day comes along I get an email that the local florist claims my Mother's address doesn't exist or is fake and they cannot deliver. I call in, complain and ask to speak to the manager. They put me on hold for 5 minutes and return with "the manager is too busy on the other line."

    I once again demand to speak to her supervisor or manager. Again she puts me on hold for 5 minutes and returns with "The manager is busy on another line, but let me offer you a 50% refund". I say, "No I want to speak to your management anyone in your management." She puts me on hold for 5 minutes and comes back with "The manager is busy on another line, but let me offer you a 50% refund". They do offer to give me the number for the local florist to call them and work out the delivery problem. I accept it and give them multiple calls on their busiest day of the year. They do not answer the phone. One of the times I call I decide to look up this local florist and find tons of complaints on Google calling them out by name and them possibly being a scam going back more than a year. Again zero confirmation email, but a customer service survey. :D

    Monday I take my 15 minute break to call both of them again. Once again the florist never answers, on a Monday at 11am EST in the same time zone. So I call 1800 FLOWERS again. She tells me that I should contact the local florist (hahahaha) but that they won't even process any refunds until Wednesday by company policy because they are sooooo busy pretending the manager is too busy to answer the phone.

    I once again spend 20 minutes on hold 3 times while she claims the managers are too busy to speak to me. But the final time she come back and offers a full refund and her worthless apologies. At this point I have to get back to work so I agree. You win this battle 1800Flowers customer support nemesis. But the war is not over. I am promised a confirmation email within 24-48 hours that never comes however a customer support survey does come. I am having fun filling these out as negatively as possible at this point. Tuesday when that last email never comes along I check my bank account, they have now charged me $135 instead of the $205. No refunds in sight yet. Nothing delivered yet.

    At this point I resort to going to their social media page on Facebook and complaining. I found so many others having similar problems, multiple better business bureau complaints and a group dedicated to these problems. 10 different customer support reps ask for the same info I have given so many times before and claim in PMs that they will fix it and process a refund immediately. No confirmation emails yet. Plenty of customer satisfaction and support eval emails though.

    Wednesday, still nothing delivered. I have found a good local florist and explained to them on the phone that they answered right away where my mother lives and they know exactly what I'm talking about so I ordered from them. We will see how that works out tomorrow. I check my bank account. The $135 charge is there and an $80 refund has been issued. Finally, even though I have zero confirmation emails. They still owe me $55 bucks. I will get it. The PM support reps claim someone is working on my account and can't look it up to see about processing me another refund for the last of what they owe. I have been offered so many confirmation emails now but zero have appeared in the email they ask me to give them every time I call. At this point I have asked to speak to the manager 9 times, and have been refused 9 times. Do they even exist? This company is a scam.

    The price is not a reflection of the bouquet. It mostly covers overhead so don't be surprised when the flowers are just average. So for $30 you will get the same bouquet you could have picked up at Vons for $10. You'll have to pay at least $10 more for the $1 vase. Just keep in mind that you are paying for the delivery, not the flowers.

    Used them twice (unfortunately) over the past year, once for my wedding anniversary and one was Valentine's day. Both times resulted in a hassle that was not corrected. One delivery was the worst, ugliest, smallest arrangement I have ever seen, and I would have been better off buying at HEB or Costco. They mistakenly gave me the wrong arrangement but refused to exchange it. I had to call Amex to cancel the payment when they refused to refund my money. The second time the delivery driver went to the wrong address. When he called I gave him the correct address. He informed me that it was out of his area and the delivery was not made. This is by far the absolute worst service I have ever encountered and I spread the word whenever I can.

    I chose an arrangement online and filled in all the necessary information for my order. A few days later I get a phone call. I couldn't understand most of the voicemail message. The only thing I could make out was that I "can" call back. First there was a toll number given. Then when repeating the number, it was an entirely different number, toll free, but I couldn't make out what the person was saying to get the number. I call 1-800 FLOWERS, and spoke with Customer Service. Turns out the florist didn't have the flowers needed for the arrangement chosen.

    The person I spoke to was very nice, but she had such a heavy accent, I couldn't understand most of what she was saying. I asked for repeats but still couldn't understand. I think (not positive) there will be an arrangement sent to my daughter, but I'm not sure what I agreed to. I've had problems with 1800FLOWERS before. I won't use them again.

    I accidentally placed an order on May 10th for Mother’s Day, and called customer service to cancel my order only to be promised a cancelation after about an hour & a half being put on hold multiple times by a customer service rep who came back after being on hold each time to offer me another option such as “getting a discount for my next order” “or having my order changed on the phone”.

    After the fifth time of repeatedly denying the given options and sticking to wanting a cancelation, it became almost like a joke. When I was finally nearing the end of the call, the customer service rep promised me that a cancelation was processing and that I would receive a full refund within said amount of days. The next day lo and behold there’s a 1800-flowers delivery and a lovely charge on my credit card.

    After calling customer service back I again was not able to speak with a supervisor or be told how I could give a formal complaint, instead I was only told that I could only receive a 50% credit for my next order, and then after denying this again a few times I was respectively put on a 3-5 minute hold each time in order for the agent to connect me with an available supervisor who wasn’t able to speak to me due to “high volumes of calls.” Which makes me believe that there must be other unhappy customers like myself or there is no supervisor to assist in any capacity.

    The agent asked me for my number in order for the supervisor to call me back, which I am absolutely not hopeful about. I just do not understand how a company has a customer service department that’s basically a sales department with “agents” that can only say “I apologize mam” or “unfortunately, I understand but...” Come on! You cannot fraudulently lie to a customer on a recorded call only to not have anyone in the department with the authority to go through those recorded calls in order to resolve issues, or even be able to provide a customer with the option to place a formal complaint against agents who lie to customers in order to get them off the phone because they’re aggravated at not being able to make a sale.

    They should instead strive for resolving any issues, which is what customer service basically stands for. It’s extremely irritating honestly and I just cannot recommend a company like this. Maybe others have had better experiences, and I really wish I was one of them but I can not recommend a site like this in any sort of capacity. It’s horrendous.

I placed the order on Friday May 10th so first availability for delivery was not until Tuesday May 14. I was fine with that and paid to have them delivered on the 14th. As of 8 pm last night they still had not been delivered. I called customer service. What a racket that was. The girl over in the Philippines call center had to take my name at least 3 times. She was apologetic but very unhelpful. I asked for a full refund. She said I couldn't get it. I asked to speak to a manager. She said her supervisor was busy. I was on the phone for at at least 25 minutes. As of now the flowers are still "in Transit". This is ridiculous. I will never be ordering from 1800Flowers again! Awful service and awful customer service when there is an issue. I pray the flowers actually do arrive today and they better be as expected.

    I ordered a Mother's Day flowers/balloons/teddy bear combo to be delivered on Mother's Day (the website asked if the Saturday prior would also be acceptable and I agreed) but when the flowers were delivered most of them were already withered and one of the balloons was deflated. I called customer service that same day and they assured me that a replacement order would be sent out and I would receive a callback to confirm re-delivery. When Mother's Day came around I still hadn't received a call so I decided to call again and see what was going on. I was again told that a re-delivery was being processed and I will receive a callback.

    The Monday after Mother's Day I called and was told that the delivery request had been approved and the recipient would receive the flowers on Tuesday 5/14/19. Around 8am 5/14 I received a notification that the flowers had been delivered so I went outside and of course NO FLOWERS. Once again I called customer service (4th time now for those of you counting) and was told that the local florist may have sent the delivery notification early but has until 8pm to deliver the flowers. It is now Wednesday 5/15 and I still don't have the replacement flowers. I feel like it wouldn't even be worth my time calling customer service again because at this rate, they won't do anything.

First on Sunday night they said the correct arrangement would be delivered on Monday and then Monday I find out the guy I spoke to never put the order in for a redelivery. Then the first agent I spoke to on Monday proceeded to put me on hold for OVER 10 mins and then hang up so the next agent I spoke to processed my refund which was to be the full refund amount and assured me that the redelivery would be on Tuesday.

    Well Tuesday comes and I see I only been refunded $21 of a $86 order and yet STILL no email confirmation for a redelivery. So I call on Tuesday to ensure the delivery will take place and to sort out why I didn't receive my FULL refund and the agent then proceeded to act as if she was asking for permission to issue my refund several times and when I wouldn't accept the offer of a 50% refund she then said, "Oh I just got permission to issue the full refund." Like seriously?!?!?

    So then this agent then proceeds to ask me if she can call my grandmother to let her know she WILL be receiving the flowers and I said yes. Well this company had the AUDACITY to call my grandmother to ENSURE her new flowers would be there by 8PM.

I got an email in between saying a delivery was attempted, but knew this was incorrect as my parents were home all day. So I called “customer service“ to find out what was going on.

They wouldn’t even tell me what local florist had the order. So yes, they wore me down and I settled for re-delivery on Tuesday and a 40% refund (still waiting for that email confirmation).

    So I awoke to an email from my mother that still, no flowers and a “delivery attempted” email yet again from this company. Another false communique.

    The lack of communication, knowledge and overall customer service experience I received here is a nightmare. Long story short the flowers I purchased online never arrived on time, I was given different reasons for the delay and the flowers I ordered were swapped for different flowers without my knowledge. If it wasn’t for my constant calling I would have never known that my flowers were swapped out in the first place. It wasn’t until the 2nd call when the representative informed me of the changes and the 2nd reason why my original flowers were never shipped (1strepresentative said there was a ZIP code issue 2nd representative said they were out of stock).

    While I had them on the phone I decided to look at the substituted flowers on my computer. I couldn’t trust what they were telling me anymore at this point and through my research I found out that they were $10 cheaper than the original purchase, were not as pretty and were going to arrive in bud form. Feeling disappointed from this whole ordeal I had to get off the phone and make a last minute agreement with my sister since we both put in on these flowers. We were still willing to work with them as long as the original flowers were going to be delivered instead of the budded ones.

    I called for a 3rd time to let them know of this and they told me someone would call me. I waited 2 ½ hrs for someone to call me back but due to their incompetence and lack of communication I decided to call them once again. The representative seemed to lack empathy and understanding which made my next decision very easy and that was to pull the plug ASAP and request a refund.

    I ordered flowers to be delivered to my mother for her 70th Birthday. The flowers that arrived were pitiful. They looked like something a child would pick out of the yard. I called customer service and spoke with a very sweet lady and she asked for my mother's telephone number so that she could call her personally to apologize and told me that she would re-send her flowers and she would be receiving them on May 11th (this made me happy). However, it is May 14th and she has not received a call or the flowers. I did received an apology email with a coupon for $20.00 off my next order. I will not be needing this coupon.

    I ordered flowers for my mother-in-law for Mother's Day. They were to be delivered on Thursday, May 9. When we hadn't heard anything by Friday, I tracked the delivery and it said they were out for delivery that day. That afternoon, I got an email saying they were delivered at 1:10pm, so we checked to make sure they had arrived. My in-laws were home all day and never got a delivery. I called the company that evening and despite my explaining that they actually had not been delivered, I was repeatedly told that they were delivered at 1:10. It was like going around in circles over and over. They even put me on hold to talk to the Fed Ex driver but again, the same answer.

    I repeatedly asked to talk to a supervisor but the woman would not transfer me to anyone else. They told me I could get the flowers redelivered, but that wouldn't happen until Tuesday, May 21. I then asked for a refund. This all happened last Friday and I just today (Tuesday, May 14) got an email about the refund. We'll see if that ever happens. Needless to say, I do not recommend this company and will never use them again.

    My husband ordered 2 dozen roses for me. They arrived in a box, crushed and ugly. I tried to salvage them by placing them in water with the nutrient pack provided. They never improved. I called 1-800-FLOWERS without telling my husband, hoping I could save him the embarrassment of knowing the flowers were terrible, and a complete waste of money. The woman on the phone refused to do anything about it and said my husband could try to call. I even offered to send her a picture as well as live chat so she could see the flowers herself. I hope NO ONE purchases flowers for someone they care about from 1-800-FLOWERS. Use your local florist if you don't want dead, depressing, expensive flowers sent.

    I ordered the flower arrangement Tuesday 5-7-19 night and called 1-800-Flowers and spoke to Sheena, Wednesday 5-8-19 morning AT 8:00 A.M. to have them rerouted to a different address (because my step dad had a stroke Tuesday night and Wednesday morning my mom left Bear Point AL to drive back home to the hospital to Hoover, AL). Sheena confirmed to me that she made the change and also put me on hold and called FedEx to have them rerouted to the correct address, she confirmed that the flowers were said to be delivered to my mom's home (new corrected address) today 5-10-19. I then got online and spoke with a representative and she confirmed that 1800Flowers had the correct shipping address on my account and that they would be rerouted.

    And they were STILL DELIVERED TO THE WRONG ADDRESS. My mom left the hospital today 5-10-19 leaving my stepdad there to go get the flowers off of her porch and that’s she we discovered they were delivered to the wrong address! I WANT MY MONEY BACK. HAD I KNOWN THAT THEY WERENT GOING TO BE DELIVERED AS REQUESTED I WOULD HAVE GONE AND GOT HER MOTHER'S DAY GIFT LOCALLY. My mom called to see if the flowers were delivered at the other address originally given when I placed the order and they weren't delivered to that address either.

    This experience has been terrible. I also sent flowers to my mother in law and you didn’t send the card with it that I requested to go with it. She had no idea who they came from and she said the flowers looked wilted. I’m embarrassed and will NEVER order from this company again. My first time to order and this is the service I get....

    I ordered flowers for my mom's birthday to be delivered to her workplace over a week in advance. I added the item to my cart and in between the time it took for me to show the bouquet to my dad and brother to get their approval and checkout, they upgraded my order from the small bouquet I wanted to the large without letting me know until the order had already been processed.

    I emailed the Sales and Service specialist team regarding my order and advised them of the issue. It took 6 back and forth emails for them to get the issue even fixed in the first place and had such a huge problem with them even accepting the fact that they screwed me over and needed to fix their issue. Then, my flowers were not delivered on the day they were supposed to be delivered, which was my mothers birthday. This has been a hard birthday for her because she is turning 50 and I wanted to make her day a little brighter.

    I contacted them again and all they wanted to over me was a $20 savings pass on my next order. As I never plan to order from them again, a $20 savings pass does me no good. They refused to deliver my order at a discounted rate since they didn't deliver it on time so after 10 more back and forth emails they finally gave me a full refund and cancelled the order. This whole ordeal was such a nightmare and I am very upset with this company and will never be ordering from them again. If I could give them a review of less then 1 star I would.

So I called again and finally this last customer service named JOHN ** able to help me. He said he already put in the promo code and I should received an email regarding the refund for shipping fee and a survey for him. Several hour after that, I received the survey but none about the refund. I dispute the charged with PayPal but they denied me since I couldn't give the proof of email for the refund even though I sent them all the phone logs and survey and proof or order.

Okay, I had booked kind of last minute so maybe Monday would be okay. When I called, the agent informed me that the florist doesn't deliver to the zipcode I had specified... Uh. What?

    I do believe it's 1-800-Flowers' RESPONSIBILITY to find a florist that does. I didn't specify what florist. 1-800-Flowers did. TRY ANOTHER ONE?! The agent didn't seem to understand this.

My mom's flowers arrived as scheduled and were very pretty, but by the next morning, they were all dead. Very sad that they lasted less than 24 hours after she received them.

    My wife's mom never got her flowers. I tried to contact the company to let them know something was wrong on the day of delivery, but I guess free thinking is no longer allowed in businesses and employees are only allowed to read from a script. They insisted that the flowers would be delivered on time. Here we are 4 days after the scheduled delivery date, and no flowers. When I called customer service, they offered me a $20 credit towards a future order. Not cool. The total order was more than $150.

    I placed an order online for delivery on Mother’s Day. I placed the order on Friday for delivery anytime on Saturday or Sunday. The flowers were never delivered and I received no information as to why. On the Monday following Mother’s Day, I called 1-800-Flowers and they had no explanation as to why it wasn’t delivered and said that, “maybe the florist ran out of materials.” Okay... They asked if I wanted them to attempt delivery yet couldn’t guarantee that there was any more likelihood that I wouldn’t experience the same problem again. I asked for a refund and after I was placed on hold, the phone call was disconnected. Could have been a mistake or a dropped call on my end. Who knows.

    I called back and was told that they could not access the file because another agent had it open and was working on the issue. I asked for a supervisor and they essentially refused to transfer the call saying that the wait would be too long. After I insisted that they transfer me to a supervisor or I would file a complaint with my CC company, they placed me on hold only to be disconnected again! I called back a THIRD time and after a lengthy hold spoke with a supervisor who again said that they couldn’t access the file and I should call back later in the day. She also said that she could see that I had called three times and that continuing to call would do no good. What?!? The calls were all disconnected. That’s why I called back. Plus she TOLD me to call back later.

    I would not accept that resolution and after much back-and-forth, she was magically able to access the file and process a refund. I normally do not use online florists and prefer to call a local florist direct, however I was out of the country and it was easier to order online. I will never do so again. They did offer a $20 credit for future use. I declined because I will never put myself through such a horrible customer service experience.

They failed to deliver my mother's flowers in time, then had the nerve to offer me a $20 discount on my next order as a peace offering. I don't think so. Worst of all, they said they couldn't help me because "you know, Mother's Day is our busiest day." Yeah, I know that - it was 1-800-Flowers that wasn't prepared.

They cancelled the order and said I'm getting a full refund, but I don't believe it till I see it. TLDR don't use them, I should have just called and used the local florists like I usually do.

    I had ordered flowers for my sister to be delivered Friday, May 10th. When I spoke to her Sunday, 5/12, she said she never received them. I called to ask what happened. They said they tried to deliver it, but could not find the address. They never called my sister, whose phone number was provided and listed on the order. They also never called me. I asked to be credited. I was told I need a manager & none were available. I was on the phone for 48 minutes & no one ever became available. I hung up and called back again on Monday 5/12. This time I was told they tried to deliver, but the recipient was not available and they are unable to credit me. Meanwhile the delivery was to her office, where many people work & could have signed for them. I wound up having to call the credit card company to get the credit. Never again will I purchase from this company.

    Ordered for Mother's Day delivery on Saturday. One day early. They never showed at all. Made for a great surprise. Just not the good kind. Called Monday and they have no idea why they did not show up. The order was placed and paid for. They offered to call her and apologize. Gee thanks. This is the second time this has happened. I will shop for flowers elsewhere for all my future orders. I would advise the same unless you want the flowers to arrive 2 days after the funeral.... Still trying to get my money back.

    My son sent me a sunflower bouquet for Mother's Day. They arrived two days ago by FedEx in a box with a ball jar to arrange them in. I followed directions of cutting an inch off the bottom, etc. and looked forward to the flowers opening up. Two days later they look withered and ugly. I usually post flowers my son sends on Instagram but I can't this year because I don't want to embarrass him. It's the thought that counts but I feel really bad that my son wasted his hard earned money on such a flimsy ugly bouquet!

    I just finished a long complaint letter to this company so all I can say is DO NOT ORDER FLOWERS FROM THIS COMPANY. I placed an order for my 91 year old mother to be delivered the day before Mother's Day and like so many other people on this site it was never processed, never received, and every time I called (4 times) I had to go through the same difficulties with agents that struggled with the English language. They told me they would issue a refund and didn't, then told me "it is out for delivery" which it wasn't, and then when I called to request my refund AGAIN, THIS MORNING, TWO DAYS LATE, they wanted to "redeliver". It is a scam. Worst online order experience ever and it ruined my mothers day too- all the phone calls, the lies, the time wasted.

    Ordered flowers for deliver on Mother's day and was told it would be delivered 5/11/19 or 5/12/19. Got a delivery confirmation on Saturday 5/11/19 so I called my mother to make sure she got them. She had not and no one had rang the doorbell or knocked on the door. She checked the porch and there was nothing there. I called customer service and was told the delivery confirmation was early and was assured it would be delivered. The flowers were not. I called on Sunday 5/12/19 and was again assured the flowers would be delivered. Again, they were not. I called on Monday 5/13/19 and was refused a refund. Apparently 1-800-Flowers is OK working with people that do not actually deliver the product then stealing your money by refusing a refund when the product is not actually delivered but marked as such.

    Received Mother’s Day flowers the day before. Second time the flowers were poor quality and died within a day. Complained to the company and they offered a redelivery of a bouquet of “comparable value”. I did that the prior time and they sent a lousy bouquet that also died in a day. This time the only thing that would make me happy was a full refund to my kids who sent it to me. They refused. Do not waste your money on this company. They use poor quality flowers, charge a premium price and do not satisfy the customer. Better to find a local florist yourself directly.

    I placed two orders for Mexican Mother's Day (10th), when I checked out I used PayPal. So the day of the delivery, nothing gets delivered! I knew that PayPal put a hold on the funds for the flowers so I called them to see if the charges went through but the money was still in their account. I called 1-800-Flowers to check on my order and they said there was no order on file for me and that I probably never placed the order. I told them I was sure that I placed the order because I checked out with PayPal and they were holding the funds in their account until my order was shipped.

    First of all, I felt like I was talking to an automated system because she kept repeating that I did not place an order. Secondly, I don't think she comprehended English very well because she couldn't understand I HAD placed an order with them because why else would PayPal be holding funds for them. After talking to her like a 5 year old and repeatedly telling her to quit interrupting me and listen to what I was trying to explain to her, she tells me to call PayPal and tell them not to release funds to them because there was no order. She said it like this happens often. I asked to speak to a supervisor and after several requests to speak to one she finally connects me to one. The only information he wanted was my PayPal transaction information so he could cancel the order with them.

    They NEVER once tried to correct their mistake and actually would not accept that they had any fault in what happened. The supervisor's explanation was that there was probably a glitch in their system when I placed my order! Ironic that their system glitched but PayPal received the information to hold the funds for them. Unless, you want to roll the dice with them or place the order online and then call them to make sure your order was placed I suggest you place your order elsewhere. I thought I was placing an order with plenty of time and I ended up driving to a local flower shop, an hour away from my house, to place the order to be delivered today. I couldn't afford to place another order online and not have it delivered. In my opinion, they deserve a minus ten for customer service.

    I ordered a lilac plant for my 91 year old mother for Mother's Day. I ordered well in advance and paid extra for a Saturday, May 11 delivery. The flowers were not delivered Saturday OR Sunday. I did call after my initial order to change the verbiage on the card that was included. I think whoever took this information down, messed up the order. When I called them today to see where her order was, I was told it would be delivered today. It was not. I noticed tonight that this plant is not even on the website now.

    My poor mother was home alone all day on Mother's Day with no flowers. I was furious! No one had the courtesy to email or call me if there was a problem. I am calling her local florist in the morning and ordering something from them. I was kept on hold for a very long time tonight trying to get an answer as to what had happened. I did demand a refund and was told it was coming. I never did receive a satisfactory explanation for what happened. If 1-800-Flowers can't handle Mother's Day orders, they shouldn't be in business.

    I ordered 2 bouquets from 1-800-Flowers to be delivered for Mother’s Day to my grandmother and mother respectively. The first delivery was to my grandmother and she called to tell me to get my money back because the flowers looked like they were over a week old when delivered. I was sent pictures of the bouquet and not only was everything drooping and dying, but I also paid for the upgrade to 30 stems and what came was less than 10. I called customer service and gave them a chance to redeliver. Well that was a mistake because I received the exact same trash that was delivered the first time.

    I called back the next to day to request a refund and was given multiple excuses as to why I couldn’t get my money back. The first was that I had to wait until after 8pm. That doesn’t even make sense! So I hung up and called back. The next person said her supervisor was busy and put me on hold several times to come back and tell me that she could give me credits and coupons that I refused to take. Then she said she could only give me 70% of my money back because the order had been delivered. I was fuming as this point because that makes no sense and nowhere in the return policy does it state this.

    I finally had to hang up on her too because she was reading from a script that was insulting my worth as a customer at that point. I then called back a third time and was told they were processing my refund. Only received 50% so I had to call a fourth time to get the remaining balance. The whole process was frustrating and I will never use this company again. Also the bouquet delivered to my mother was decent at best but was nothing like what was pictured. Anyone thinking of ordering from here, don’t waste your time or money.

    I ordered flowers for Mother's Day 2 days before the holiday. They were not delivered and the company does not reimburse for that. This company does not understand the meaning or the value of good customer service.

    This company is a complete joke. I ordered my mother flowers on the 5th of May for a May 10th delivery, did not come Friday. Callled and they guaranteed delivery by today (Mother’s Day). Guaranteed they would be there today; but nothing again. I have spent more than two hours on the phone with this joke of a company. Please DO NOT do business with 1800FLOWERS. Very disappointing.
