    I recently ordered the fairy dog bouquet for my mom's 80th birthday. I send her a puppy bouquet once per year and up until this order they have been great. This order when delivered looked like a melted bowl of ice cream with two pieces of coal. I contacted customer service and they sent a replacement, however, they used the same shop which obviously does not know how to create this bouquet. While we had a good laugh and my mom had lots of flowers it just was not even remotely close to what I ordered. I won't be using 800 flowers anymore.

    I am in the process of filing against this business. They advertise the wrong products, charge you, and deliver something totally different and cheap. They don't refund your money, they don't even issue partial refund. And that happened to me twice, and also twice to one of my friends. Horrible, should be out of business.

    I had ordered roses for a friend's birthday. They wilted hours after arrival. I contacted 1-800-Flowers immediately. They responded quickly and replaced the order. The second delivery was also questionable, but trimming the stems underwater and a warm water bath for about 30 minutes, they revived and were quite pretty. One shouldn't have to work this much to make an arrangement look good.

    Two weeks before my mom's funeral-I ordered an URN Funeral Arrangement from 1-800-flowers. It is made to encircle the URN on a table at the church altar. March 13th, the day of the funeral service it NEVER arrived at the church. I called 1-800-flowers, who were very nice-they tried to reach out to the local florist who was supposed to design and deliver them. They got no response from them. I asked for the local florist's name and contact information but was told "they could not tell me that". So instead, I have to write a complaint against 1-800-flowers. Our family will NOT ever use 1-800-flowers again. Sad to say but, they must contract with some not-so-good local florists who are representing them.  We have received our refund already of course. But I want others who might be going thru a heart-breaking time of loss- to know they can't count on 1-800-flowers.

    I ordered flowers for a family member’s Hospital stay and what arrived was nothing like what I ordered. We paid $78 for this. Contacted 1-800-Flowers and the “virtual assistant” said a new replacement bouquet would be sent. The new one was due to arrive 7 days later, and my family member was no longer in the hospital! I have spent the last several days trying to get the new bouquet rerouted to the correct address. All I ever get is AI/virtual assistant, long hold times on the phone and no return phone calls. Even tried calling the hospital to ask them to not accept the order. No guarantee they will do that. Super frustrating. We have used 1-800-Flowers for 15 years. Never had such a lousy experience like this. Too much reliance on AI! Absolutely no real customer service. Will not be using them again.

    I ordered the Magnificent Roses for my wife for Valentine's Day. I placed the order on February 4th with the flowers to be delivered on the 13th. They did not arrive on the 13th, then the 14th came and no roses. An entire romantic plan was ruined because they could not deliver the gift on time. I ended up having to show my wife a picture of what her gift was because either 1-800 Flowers and/or FedEx were incompetent.

    Granted I understand this a busy time of year for both companies, however, that does not absolve them from making arrangement to meet the ensuing customer demand. The gift ended up arriving on the 16th, 3 days after its intended arrival date. When they arrived, they were in good condition, and pretty but by this time they seemed underwhelming. I cannot tell you how disappointed I am in this entire experience and spent most of the evening apologizing. We made the most out of the situation, however. I WILL NEVER purchase anything from them again.

    My boyfriend was out of state, but wanted to send me two dozen roses for Valentine’s Day. They were supposed to arrive on the 13th. So that they could be delivered in a timely manner. However the First florist sent him a message saying that they tried to attempt delivery at my home at around 630 and this was untrue. My computer/office area is in the front, where I have a clear view of my front yard and also I have cameras that alert me. Please keep in mind. I had no idea I was getting them until Valentine’s Day actually arrived where I then had to be told by my boyfriend that he ordered flowers but he’s having a hard time with the delivery for some reason.

    This was proven in a screenshot along with the excuse that was untrue given by the florist. I called customer service three times and never received my flowers. They said that the next delivery date would be on Monday. I believe that when Valentine’s Day comes around all the florist want the money of people paying extra because it’s Valentine’s Day and not delivering flowers on time.

    My husband ordered a bouquet as a Valentine's Day surprise. I was ecstatic until I opened the box. The flowers were half dead. I sent him photos. He was highly upset, especially since he was over the road. The bouquet looked nothing like the image portrayed. It was significantly smaller and the flowers were withered. I figured clip the ends and place them in water and they will bloom. Not the case.

    I’m honestly very dissatisfied with this purchase. Looking back, I truly feel I would have paid less and gotten a better result if I had simply gone to Costco and arranged the flowers myself. At least that way I would have known exactly what I was getting. The biggest issue for me is the lack of transparency. There should have been real, accurate photos of the floral arrangements instead of what feels like overly polished or misleading images. What was advertised looks noticeably different from what was actually received.

    The arrangement I ordered appeared full, balanced, and professionally styled. What I ended up with felt sparse and underwhelming by comparison. The proportions, fullness, and overall presentation just did not match the expectations set by the photos. When I had to adjust and put it together myself to make it look presentable, it made me question what I was really paying for. If I’m essentially arranging it myself anyway, then the premium price doesn’t feel justified.

    To make matters worse, there was supposed to be a note included with the delivery, and the note was completely blank. That was extremely disappointing and frustrating, especially if the arrangement was meant for a special occasion. A missing or blank message takes away from the entire purpose and sentiment behind sending flowers. Overall, the difference between what was ordered and what I received, along with the missing message, left me feeling let down. Accurate photos, better quality control, and attention to detail would make a significant difference. As it stands, I’m very dissatisfied with this experience.

    Attached images below to show how they change the name of the box and add a description of a different box, but never itemize the basic gift box. Immediately under a beautiful picture of a gift box with the items spread out and ready to enjoy is an itemized list that includes weights and amounts of each item. STOP! That’s not what’s inside. KEEP SCROLLING to see the itemized list is for the Deluxe box. Below this itemized list of details including weights and amounts of individual items within the gift box is a summary paragraph that does not include an itemized list. There is NO itemized list describing what is in the basic gift box. I’ve no idea of how many cheeses, sausages, crackers, spreads, etc because it only lists the Deluxe and Grand immediately under the picture, in a way that looks like that’s what’s included in the basic gift box. And to not even include a similar list for the basic gift box is so deceptive.

    The only way to tell what is in the basic gift box is to try to zoom in and differentiate the items on the cutting board and the items in the box because it’s not clear. My daughter was similarly fooled with a bouquet that had 3 tiered options of the bouquet and I forgot that’s how this company operates. It was because of past experience that I went to take a screenshot of the itemized list after I placed my order. That’s when I realized the deceptive nature of how this is pictured/advertised. I immediately cancelled my order due to principle alone. BEWARE if you opt for a gift box. This company knows that rarely will you ask the recipient to details of what they received and I’m certain that’s how they continue to dupe consumers to believe they are purchasing one item, when in fact it’s a pathetic portion of the itemized description directly under the picture.

    Many hours after the service, I contacted them and requested a refund. Initially, they tried to persuade me to order another arrangement to be sent to the home. I declined, as the intent was to have the flowers for the actual service. This was a huge disappointment, as this was supposed to be a tribute to our dearly departed loved one.

    To the CEO - as a small business owner I rely on reviews and reputation. Clearly you're highly unengaged. If you have a board of directors, they will see this too. Look to your left and right, after your round at Pinehust, of course. One of those people are going to take your job. Your biggest problem sir, is that no one at that table takes the lead on managing the 3rd party florists. Either your contract with them is terribly written or you don't hold them accountable. I'm writing this as a consumer - the end you don't seem to care about or recognize - I see this so simply, you've failed on nearly every order I've placed and your reviews speak for themselves. I hope you get the chance to read this.

    A quick reminder about business - #1 Customer Satisfaction (that generates revenue) if the florists are responsible, think again. You should know their capacities. Write contracts to suit your partners. They all can't be equally productive. Volume should be considered according to the output and capabilities of each store to deliver their best product, ON TIME. If they fail on a reasonable and careful contractual agreement - THEN you have the opportunity to hold them accountable. #2 Employee satisfaction (not 1,000 agents overseas managing all the damage-- btw you can mitigate that quickly if #1 was your focus). 3.

    Shrinkflation in the floral gift industry has arrived @1800flowers. They were very dependable until last order. I could usually count on a pretty arrangement until this Christmas. I've always been impressed with the quality of the flowers when shipped by FedEx but this last order seemed poorly packaged, wilted, and poorly wrapped and secured in the box. They looked like they had been packaged a week before my requested delivery date and shipped the day before. Petals were all over the package and stems were broken while the outside of the package was immaculate.

    I ordered an Extra large Centerpiece and couldn't help but notice it was smaller and short a candle. I looked at my order and while the photos show only 2 candles this year on the XL the Centerpiece is significantly smaller than last year. This is hopefully due to trying to keep up with the Xmas shipping schedule and request timing do I'll stay away from 1800FLOWERS during Christmas and shop local. If my next future order Is this weak I'll drop my membership. The 3 candle is last years and the others are this season's item.
