    The Following Relates to my dispute of the Avas Flowers $88.42. I ordered the flowers online the morning of September 24, 2020. I specified on the order in the Special Instructions box that the delivery person should ring the doorbell (since the delivery destination was in inner city Philadelphia in a high crime area). I arranged for someone to be standing by at the house awaiting the delivery. The delivery was scheduled for Friday, September 25. I received an e-mail at 3:48 p.m. on Friday the 25th stating the flowers had been delivered. On Monday, September 28, my wife called the recipient to ask how she liked the flowers and she was informed that she had not received them.

    I immediately called Avas Flowers and spent the better part of an hour and a half attempting to resolve the issue. After being put on hold numerous times I was informed by the customer service representative that the flowers had been delivered and that the florist had a photo of the delivery on the doorstep. The rep said the problem was mine. I assumed that the flowers had been stolen. Had I not specifically instructed the company to ring the doorbell upon delivery and had I not arranged for someone to be there to accept the flowers, I would have accepted that the fault was mine. However, having specifically asked on the order form under Special Instructions the the doorbell be rung at the time of delivery. Thus, I believe the responsibility lies with the florist. (By the way, when the service rep looked up my order he confirmed that I had indeed left those specific instructions.

    As compensation, Avas Flowers offered me $10 in compensation. I then explained to a second rep that I would accept only a full refund or delivery of the flowers -- their choice. I was again offered $10 in compensation and I informed her that that I intended to dispute the charge with my credit card company. At that point, I was thanked and she ended the call.

    A day later I received an e-mail that indicated the flowers had not been delivered. (See following): ”Thank you for choosing Avas Flowers for your floral needs. Due to the seasonality and availability of the flowers, the exact blooms for the arrangement you ordered are unfortunately currently unavailable and we were unable to complete the delivery on the requested day. We have secured delivery for you on 09/29/2020 with on of the top designers to ensure Dorothy is delighted with their arrangement. We are issuing you $15 in store credit (points) that will be associated with your email for this inconvenience. You will be able to use these points to send flowers anywhere in the US within the next year.

    If you’d like to discuss further, please give us a call at 877-638-6619 or reply to this email at your earliest convenience. Please have your order number handy so that we may better assist you. Your order number is **. Thank you, Sincerely, As we try to keep our staff safe with social distancing measures during this health crisis, this has caused us to have a limited Customer Support Staff. Response times may take longer than normal. We apologize for any inconvenience. Avas Flowers Customer Support www.AvasFlowers.Net" Guess what. I again arranged for someone to be standing by to receive the flowers since the recipient was bedridden. The second promised delivery was not made. I then disputed the charge with my credit card company.

    Days later, I received the following email from AVAS. “A refund in the amount of $30.47 has been issued. It may take your bank up to 10 days to process this refund. We apologize for any inconvenience Sincerely, Avas Flowers Customer Support Click on one of the green tabs below for further assistance!” Since I cannot bear any more dealings with the incompetency and rudeness from AVAS, I guess I am out fifty bucks. Worse than losing the money was having to endure numerous calls with customer service reps who had no power to resolve the issue and the fact the company refused to take responsibility for what were obviously their errors. I encourage avoiding doing business with this firm at all costs. Caveat Emptor. W. J. **

    The flowers were to be delivered for a birthday. The flower shop said they "couldn't deliver" according to Ava's. However, I received 5 other flower deliveries on my birthday from other shops in our area and never left the house all day. Ava's will not give me the supposedly florist they contracted the order to -- claims they can't?? Will not refund money until they "do an investigation"?? The flowers were ordered and paid for to be delivered. Flowers were never delivered -- even their website says they were never delivered (the address for delivery was correct in their system). I requested a refund -- they need to "investigate it??" Seriously, horrible business - scam. NEVER ORDER FROM HERE!

    We ordered flowers for a friend who just had surgery on September 29, 2020 for delivery on October 1, 2020. Avas took the order, charged our credit card, confirmed the order and delivery date and then on October 2, 2020 sent us an email that delivery will be on October 3, 2020. OK we thought, better late than not knowing. On October 3rd, nothing was delivered. On October 4 we contacted Avas and was told that there had been a delivery glitch and that the order, enhanced this time because of their error, will be delivered on October 5, which it was but with half of the flowers wilted and dying.

    The UPS tracking of these flowers showed that they left Miami on the 5th, through Dallas and Little Rock before ending up in Tulsa the morning of the 5th. Delivery was on the 5th around 7PM. All I can say is had this been for a wedding or funeral or other more important event, the delivery would have been useless and money wasted. DO NOT EVER USE AVAS FLOWERS - EVER - THEY ARE HORRIBLE.

    I ordered my aunt some flowers to cheer her up after she lost a pet. They didn't have what I originally ordered, so they did upgrade to more flowers (instead of 3 roses, they sent a dozen). They were supposed to be delivered last Friday, but I was told they couldn't be delivered until Tuesday. The flowers arrived, but not the $17.99 stuffed animal that was supposed to be the "comforting" part of the gift. I filed a missing item report with the company, to which I get a poorly coded email (the code actually shows, and I had to search through it to find the actual message) that simply refunded the money. No offer to send my item or anything. I wanted to do something nice, and they have made it an awful experience.

    First of all, they don't offer dimensions for the various product sizes, so you're already taking a gamble. I bought this for my mom's birthday and felt completely embarrassed when she received it. The "medium" size is extremely small. Maybe 5 inches tall from the base of the container (which was not a pot, but a small clear square) to the tallest flower. It was absolutely not "as shown". It was a pathetic looking little plant with a couple of flowers. I would've paid maybe $25 for what they actually delivered. Certainly not $67. Yes, $67, there's a surprise $20 service fee at the very end of the check-out process. Extremely disappointed and don't recommend this company at all.

    Our anniversary was October 1st and I ordered flowers the morning of 9-30-20 to be delivered to my wife at her work.. Website said they would be delivered no problem. Get email on the 1st at 1:30 saying to please call them. Called and was told the driver couldn't deliver them. When I asked the representative why, he wouldn't or couldn't give me an answer. He said they would deliver the next day. Told him this was unacceptable, That our anniversary is today not tomorrow. Said he would upgrade the order and call my wife what happened... He never called. Called Avas later and said I wanted a refund and was told too late. Now I am having to dispute the charge. Anything time sensitive DO NOT use Avas Flowers.

    I placed an order 3 days before my daughters birthday. Asked for a fall bouquet with purple, orange, rust and yellow flowers for fall. Specified “twice” no Lilies as my daughter does not like them. Paid over $150 and my daughter received a bouquet with 2 sunflowers, 4 pink roses, at least 8 small Lilies and lots of messy yellow flower filler. When I asked for them to correct the order and send a replacement, I was told they would have to call ANOTHER florist to correct the problem. Heartbroken... My daughter thought I didn’t remember that she specifically disliked Lilies....

    Multiple bad experiences. The most recent one was ordered the XL and paid over &100 and received something smaller than the small. MULTIPLE bad service with this company in many cities. FRAUD. I think It is common because the person who pays and orders is rarely the receptor so they get away with charging large and going small. LOTS of bad reviews!!

    Ladies and Gentlemen, please think twice before using this company. They lied that they were located in Palatine, IL. which was the same town as the delivery address. I spent an hour and a half trying to get an answer to where my order was. The order was suppose to be delivered by 12 noon on Thursday as per their email. When trying to get an answer, I had to call 8 times and then I kept being transferred to a phone where no one knew anything about my order.

    They left me on hold many times thinking I would go away. When the flowers arrived, they were dry looking of poor quality, skimpy and in bad shape and no way was worth $80.00. $17.00 service fee, plus $10 for delivery is outrageous. In these days and times no one needs to be taken advantage of. They have many complaints filed with the BBB reviews from other customers state total dissatisfaction as well. Please don't be taken advantage of. I wish I would have checked the reviews before ordering. You work hard for your money and do not need to be scammed.

    I was charged for a medium bouquet of flowers, which I ordered, but a small was delivered. I was most disappointed as the recipient is a recent cancer survivor and after a rough year, this birthday was very special. The flowers that were delivered were pretty, but very scant. My invoice showed the proper size, but the delivery showed that a small was delivered. I paid 70.00 for a larger bouquet. I told them I could provide a picture of both the invoice and the delivery ticket.

    I have many times used Avas Flowers at different places around the country as I have many family members living in other cities. I have never been disappointed until now, especially since the recipient of this order was a recent cancer survivor and had a very rough year and was celebrating this birthday as a milestone to just being here. When I talked with their customer service, she was going to call the florist that was used. Their answer was that their substitution was within their guidelines?? To be fair I gave them one star as the dinky bouquet of flowers that were delivered were pretty. I am extremely disappointed and will never be using their services again.

    After Ava's Flowers made a huge mistake and didn't deliver my order placed weeks in advance, I experienced the worst customer care I've encountered in years. Facts are, I ordered an arrangement on Sept 8 to deliver on Sept 21 (daisies for my mother-in-law - her favorite flower). At 5 pm on Sept 21, they still hadn't delivered, despite the automated system telling me the delivery was indeed scheduled for that day. When I called, the representative told me they were out of daisies, so could not deliver anything on that day. I also had not received any notification/phone call letting me know they were out of daisies. They had weeks to contact me so that I could cancel my order and go with a florist that did have what I needed. But they did not contact me at all.

    They had already charged the $74+ for the delivery that they couldn't make, and at this point all that could be done was they could send either 2 dozen red roses, a poinsettia plant or an orchid to her the day after her birthday. After spending over 40 minutes on hold with the first representative, she "accidentally" hung up on me, I called back 2 more times and was "transferred" to someone who also hung up me, finally called back a 3rd time, and (1.5 hrs after my initial call) the representative said best they could do was send one of those options on Sept 22, and refund me just $20, or cancel the order altogether for a refund. Absolutely absurd. Especially given they say this is a family-owned business of over 30 years, focused on customer care and have a "wide range" of products for delivery. An incredibly frustrating experience. Never again will I give them my business.

    I picked a floral arrangement that looked like it would be possible to duplicate pretty closely. The delivered arrangement was flowers but it was not "as similar as possible with the same look and feel." The friend to whom I sent the flowers made photos at my request. The ordered flowers included many small blooms with roses, carnations, asters and stock. There appeared to be a couple of rose blooms but no obvious carnations. There were several large mums and some Alstroemeria that ruined the "look and feel" of the arrangement. As guests at the birthday party said of the arrangement, "It is the thought that counts." That may be true but the "thought" cost nearly $100.

    Like another person purchasing flowers from Avas, I didn't check their reviews. Shame on me! Always do your due diligence. I was traveling and in a time crunch, but regardless the product and the entire experience was negative. I could have purchased a number of grocery store orchids, spent less and satisfied the receiver of the gift. I will not blame the customer service representatives for their role, they clearly were just phone answerers. I did get a $10.00 to use on another order (I spent $130.00+). No chance I will reorder from Avas. I believe they do not care one tiny bit if they satisfy a customer.

    I paid $80 for a simple 3 purple roses and some other purple flowers in a square purple vase with a balloon. All purple since that was the recipient's favorite color. What they sent in no way matched what I had chosen, however, they have such a overreaching substitution policy that they could have sent a fern and it would have been covered by their policy. They in no way tried to even come close to what I ordered. Please do not waste your money with this florist. There is no way to specify to them what the problem was with the order because they really don't care.

    I ordered flowers for a friend's birthday. I gave very explicit instructions. I said no carnations (In our culture they are funeral flowers) and no Baker's fern. I paid over $80. In my area I would have gotten twice as many flowers for about $60. I would not have known what my friend received but she sent me a photo a couple of days after she received the flowers. Carnations predominated the bouquet. I called to complain because I also thought the flowers were overpriced. The flowers were to be delivered on a Thursday.

    After seeing the photo I called Ava's flowers. It is impossible to speak to a person without going through many prompts. The prompt that finally worked was "new orders"... Anyway I was passed to a lovely representative who checked with the "designer" and she was told that there was no mention of my request for no carnations nor my request for no Baker's fern. Blatant lies. She said too much time had passed and she could not provide a credit. Meanwhile only one business day had passed since my friend sent me the photo. Do not believe their advertising! This is one of the worst companies I have ever dealt with.

    Purchased 2 large sprays for $390 for my father's funeral. Fewer flowers in them than the medium size one, large areas of nothing but greenery. Missing the personalized banners, I had paid $10 each for. I tried to post a pic but couldn't get it to show up. This really can not be fixed. Funerals right now with COVID are sad enough. They pretend to be a local florist. This is what they did. They were on YELP and I was suspicious when the agent could not say Van Alstyne. So sad that there are so many really hateful people who care nothing about delivering a good product. This was for my father. It is beyond disappointing.

    The whole process was terrible from ordering that took over 30 minutes because the agent kept mixing up the cards and the sprays. He evidently didn't have red flowers because one of them was supposed to have red in it. This should not keep happening to people. Someone needs to shut them down. Do not buy here. Do not trust them. Ask where they are located. Ask them to itemize your bill. They overcharged me. I am very sad about this.

    I ordered what looked to be a beautiful funeral spray for my husband's aunt's funeral. The only thing acceptable about this entire order, was that they showed up on time. Not only did they forget the card. The flowers were completely underwhelming. I tried to get ahold of their customer service for 3 hours, and it kept telling me that I had to use the automated call back. I did the automated call back three times and never received a call back.

    I finally called to fake make an order just so that I could get a human on the phone. And all she could do for me, after another 20 minutes of waiting on hold was give me a $15 refund. The flowers cost $141 and looked more like they should have costed $60. She also told me that the reason the card didn't come is because they didn't charge me for it. First of all the guy who took down the information for the card never said anything about a charge which i would have paid and they just sent the flowers with no card making me look incompetent in front of my husband's family when the only ones who are incompetent are Avas flowers.

Paid an additional 15$ to expedite the service before 1pm today. Get a call from them at 12:45 pm saying they cannot find a florist to deliver before that time, and that they will send a smaller basket instead to the family, and give me a partial refund!! I don’t think so...

    First of all it is a spray. They are made for funeral services, I didn’t order a basket for the family. And I also didn’t receive anything from you, and you didn’t even call me in time for me to get at least a freaking plant from another florist to the funeral. Then the girl who called, told me it was my fault for ordering such a large spray last minute. Ummm come again?? You false advertised same day delivery and expedited service on this exact spray! So I’d say it really sounds more like false advertisement to me. Also now have to wait 5-7 days to have my money refunded to my card. Never order from these people. They are frauds.

He responded very disappointed because it wasn't what he'd ordered and looked quite a bit less expensive than what he'd paid. So, given a whole lot of similar reviews, I'd try to avoid Avas Flowers.

    I ordered a bouquet for my mother's birthday. She is very ill and lives out of state. We have been separated since the pandemic started and I was hoping to brighten her day with flowers. I paid extra for delivery by 2pm on her birthday. Here we are two days later and no delivery! Customer service is very hard to reach by phone, no tracking information available. I am so disappointed that what could be my mother's last birthday not honored by Avas Flowers. Do not waste your money! The service they provide is terrible.

    Had to give them one star just to get review published. In truth, they don't deserve anything but bankruptcy. I should have done deep due diligence on AVAS even though ordering flowers (never delivered despite multiple assurances and hours of waiting on the phone) for my wife's birthday. Turns out, every assurance I received was made up as the person on the phone could never reach the "designer." Moreover, any look online is littered with complaints. Better Business Bureau rated them "F". In fact, one online summary of AVAS states:

    "More than 1,400 complaints against the company have been filed with the BBB, which, as of November 2015, gave the florist an F rating. In April 2014, the BBB remarked upon a pattern of complaints: "Consumers have reported flower deliveries that arrived days late, dead, wilted, brown, falling apart. There have been reports of flowers not arriving after continued assurances they were on the way. Consumers have reported deliveries of flowers that were completely different from those ordered (type of flowers, vases, arrangements). Consumers have reported difficulties reaching Customer Service to try and resolve problems." Finally, there are many reports of difficulties retrieving payments for undelivered or dead flowers. Please do not make the mistake, I did! My bad!

    On Wednesday Aug 5th I ordered a Satin Cross with flowers for a funeral that was going to be held on Aug. 6th. The arrangement was to be delivered on the 5th to the funeral home. On Aug 6th I received an email to call the Avas Flowers. It took an hour to get through. They said the funeral was on Aug 7th. I told them they were wrong. They called the funeral home and confirmed the funeral was going on while we were on the phone. They offered me 33% off and would deliver to the home of the family that day.

    An hour later I get a call from Avas they don’t have the cross I picked out. I had to get a pillow instead. I needed the flowers delivered at this point so I agreed. The credit to my account was less than 20% of my order. I called to get this corrected and I waited over an hour, couldn’t get the issue resolved. I asked to speak with a supervisor. I spoke with her. She offered me a $20 credit to use with them. It was a $77 order. I told her I would never use them again. She went to listen to the tape and I was on hold another half hour. She came back and disconnected the call and hasn’t called back. This is by far the worst flower delivery I ever experienced. I would recommend them to no one!

    Delivered the flowers a day late. I ordered them 7 days earlier. They promised they would have them there on the correct day. Also, the cost was high - for the smallest vase of roses, etc. It would have been worth it - if it was on the correct day. Even though I contacted them several times - I received no return messages.

    In hindsight, I wish that I would have looked up more reviews before ordering flowers for an employee recovering at home. Avas seemed to have a an almost 5-star rating but that had to be false. A local florist was not able to deliver for a few days so I decided to try Avas after an online search. The recipient never received the flowers and never did I receive an email confirming delivery. I called their customer service and FINALLY got a real person after going through their prompts and waiting. They said they had confirmation of receipt from the "designer" meaning florist. They would only re-deliver if they could retrieve the "delivered" bouquet and call the recipient. Made no sense. I have disputed the charge with the bank on the company credit card. I reordered from a local shop and they delivered a beautiful bouquet of flowers and on time AND for half the cost. Don't waste your time and money on this company.

    Worst experience ever! I placed an order thinking it was going to be delivered same day because that’s what it said and that’s what I paid for but when I received the invoice it said it was going to be delivered until the following day. So I cancelled online and when I didn’t receive anything from them that day, I called the following day and after going through their god awful phone system I was finally able to speak to someone and she said she was going to cancel it and someone would reach out to me to confirm and to process my refund. Instead of getting anything on that, I received an email saying that my flowers had been delivered instead.

    So I called yet again a few times because they either wouldn’t answer or they would drop the call after putting me on hold and after calling for the third time I finally got in touch with someone who said that there was nothing they could do because you can’t do cancellations online but again, I had already spoken to someone over the phone who said she would cancel it herself. So I got flowers delivered that I cancelled 2 hours after placing them because they failed to provide the correct date of delivery and then they were delivered either way and I didn’t get my refund because there was nothing they could do. Never use this flower shop. It’s simply despicable service.

At 6:25 PM I received an email that my order had been successfully delivered. I checked my front porch and found it there. At 2:34 AM I received an email expressing their sorrow about any confusion regarding applicable taxes and fees. They indicate that during the checkout process a summary of order details appears which I'm still looking for.

    Not once do they reference the fact that I canceled the order within minutes of placing it. "Cancel" was an option on their website form and I included the order number as they requested. I mentioned this to my florist and was told they have heard this from numerous people. Obviously this company should be rated lower than one star, but that was the lowest option.

When she opened them, they were wilted and then they died two days later.

    Mom didn't tell me till day 5 after delivery. I immediately contacted customer service to let them know since their website states in multiple places in large font they have a 7 day freshness guarantee. That apparently only applies if you call within 24 hours of delivery to say your flowers will probably not last 7 days. I only wanted replacement flowers delivered.

AVAS Flowers never took responsibility or seemed to make any effort to fix the problem or acknowledge the problem but they willingly took my $75 dollars and blamed their subcontractor for not delivering the flowers. From my understanding, AVAS did not pay the local florist. They contract out but simply pocketed the money and hoped I'd let it slip.

    1. On 6/11/20 we placed an order for delivery of flowers to a teacher we paid extra for same day delivery. 2. The flowers were never delivered. 3. On Friday 6/12 we called and was advised the flowers were on the truck & would be delivered by 7 pm. 4. The flowers were never delivered. 5. We called back after 7 & was told the florist shop was closed but your rep guaranteed the flowers would be delivered by 4 pm Saturday. As we were responsible for getting the flowers for the teacher we were already embarrassed. 6. The flowers were never delivered on Saturday.

    7. We called at around 6:30 that evening & spoke to Johana. As the name of the florist could not be provided, we asked that the flowers be delivered to another address and we would then hand deliver the flowers. Johana changed the order delivery address. 9. Johana told us that Saturday delivery could not be guaranteed but would be delivered by Monday the latest by a new local florist. 10. SURPRISE - the flowers were never delivered.

    We were on hold on 3 separate occasions for over 35 minutes & still it has never been explained why the flowers weren't delivered. We live in a very densely populated area of NY. Your practice of shielding your florists who have failed to do their job as promised & guaranteed, is inexcusable & against what transparency means in today's world - you did nothing but reinforce the problems with business today - no one takes responsibility! Where is compensation for our time and embarrassment - and where are the flowers? Howard

    I placed an order online for a sympathy arrangement on a Monday. I was charged a $17.95 service fee but agreed to pay it so that the flowers would be delivered the following day by noon. When the flowers didn't arrive by 3:00 pm, I called the company's customer service number. The representative checked on my order and was told that it would not go out until the following day; more than 24 hours late. I cancelled the order and requested a refund as the flower arrangement had not even been made. I was put on hold for 18 minutes while the operator "processed my refund." He came back on the phone and told me my account had been credited the full amount of my purchase and I would receive an email.

    The company did send an email stating the refund had been issued but that it might take ten days for my bank to process the refund. The money had been charged to my account as soon as I placed the order, however, it takes ten days to have the money placed back in my account. There is no doubt in my mind that I was put on hold for 18 minutes because they hoped I would hang up and not pursue the refund. I wrote a review on their website with this same information, however the company did not post my review. I have filed a complaint with the NJ Better Business Bureau, the state in which the company headquarters is based. I have not received my refund and others who have written to the Better Business Bureau state they have not received their refunds either.

    The BBB contacted Avas Flowers on behalf of customers who have had the same problems I've had, but found their claim that customer satisfaction is their main goal as not accurate since they have not changed their business practices despite customers' complaints. They posted a warning about this company. I wish I had checked with the BBB before placing my order. I am still waiting for my refund. At this point, I will have to take the matter up with my bank. I found a good local florist who delivered the arrangement the day after I ordered it, as promised, and didn't charge me a service fee. There are good florists, make sure they are not affiliated with Avas Flowers before you place your order.

    On their website they advertised as a local florist in Chico, CA. I ordered from their website on 6/5/20 for a next day Saturday delivery in Chico and paid $9.99 for delivery by 2pm in addition to their regular delivery fee of $9.99. Nowhere did it say a Saturday delivery wasn't available or that any other fees would be charged. Saturday comes & goes with no flowers. I called their 800# Saturday afternoon, was on hold for 30 minutes then was told I'd get a call back by 6pm. No call came. On Monday I learned they aren't even in Chico (they are in New Jersey!!) and they just forward the delivery request to an actual local florist and charge to do that.

    The flowers were delivered two days later which is also when I finally received my receipt, where I found that I was charged an extra $18 "service fee". After everything, for a $69 bouquet it cost a total of $121. I finally reached someone at Avas Flowers and she said I didn't pay for expedited delivery! She actually argued with me even though I was looking at the charges on my receipt! Long story short - she said she would credit back to me $20 and that it would take 7-9 business days to see the credit. Deceptive advertising, hidden fees, horrible customer service....

    I found the Avas website because the Covid-19 epidemic had resulted in the local florist being closed. I was attracted to an anniversary floral arrangement that was depicted as having 12 roses plus other minor flowers in their "small" arrangement. Based on this I chose the "medium." When it arrived there were 3 roses, a couple of hydrangeas and a few other flowers of lesser value. This has a worth of about one-third what I had paid.

    After speaking with several representatives from the company as well as the florist who actually put together the arrangement I was offered half off the arrangement and nothing deducted from their fee was 25% again more than the arrangement. More importantly, these flowers were meant to mark the 50th Anniversary for my wife and I. The special touch is lost. As a statement of fact, I will never again use this company!

    When my friend made no mention of the flowers, I called. She had received an arrangement, not the one I had ordered...not even close. She sent me a photo and it is not even arranged professionally. It had a number of daises and leaves. I can understand some substitution, but the vase was not even the same. I certainly didn't feel it was worth over $60.00. My friend was embarrassed that she had not called, but the card I had requested was not included. There was only a business card for an event planner. I have no clue about that.

    I ordered flowers for an anniversary early morning June 1 and received a confirmation they would be delivered by 7pm that day. They were not, claiming the attempt to deliver was unsuccessful (the recipients are working from home!), using COVID as an excuse, offering 15% off my next order. The next morning I received a phone message, unintelligible after “Avas”. By 4:30pm that day flowers still were not delivered so I used the online customer service form AGAIN to notify them of my concern and request a refund. Shortly after, they sent an email that the order had been delivered at 4:51.

    My daughter-in-law sent a picture - what an embarrassment. The most unprofessional and pathetic bouquet ever. You could buy better at a convenience store for $8– not the $80+ I was charged. I had the same experience via phone as previous reviews, on hold for 20 min then to an automated system to schedule a return call from them, which I did. Surprise! No response. I tried to use the online form to file my complaint but the link within that page of the form is “broken” and will not submit so I sent an email to the address in their recorded hold message. It bounced back with an automated reply that the email is not monitored so I printed my complaint and sent via USPS.

    Short of filing fraud with my credit card company, I have hit a brick wall. There was a code for “free shipping” followed by a $20 service charge to place the order and a $3 charge to enclose a card with message. Look closely at the location for this business (NJ) because their website goes to great lengths to demonstrate a presence in a Midwest city, as I unfortunately discovered too late. Thus my advice: Buyer beware!

    What was delivered was a plant that was half the cost of my initial purchase. Very disappointed I called to discuss but they would not budge. I ended up with a $95 bill, not the plant I wanted, not even the plant they offered as a substitution, a late delivery, and not even a local company.

    I ordered a 2 dozen assorted roses for my wife right before Memorial weekend and I can tell you (even I'm not a flower guy) that it was gorgeous. They put some kind of rainbow roses along with red and hot pink colors and those green leaves. On top of this, they put a white bow around a vase and it was just perfectly matched. And her action to the flowers were just priceless. I would definitely order more from these guys - I need send one to my mom in Glendale so I will give them a try.

    We ordered a bouquet. Called My Sun Moon & Stars. Beautiful yellow roses with blue/purple flowers, in a blue glass vase. Total cost of order was over 75.00. Avas promised a delivery date of next day. After completing order & paying for it, I was told the order would not be delivered next day. But, here is the real problem. My daughter received the flowers in a box. No vase. No card. Completely different flowers. Sparse arrangement. I could have purchased these flowers for 10.00 at a grocery store. They were mixed color carnations & daisies. They were wilted, as they sat in the box with no water for over 24 hours. I called customer service. After being disconnected by one rep, the second rep offered a 50% refund. BUYER BEWARE!

    I purchased flowers on Saturday for same day delivery. The description of the arrangement was vague, but I went with the luxury grade arrangement. The arrangement given was not worth the price I paid. By Tuesday, the luxury grade flowers were wilting. I also added a medium box of chocolates for $24.99. The chocolates delivered were 12 Ferrero Rocher chocolates that sell at Target for $5.19. I completed their survey and expressed my displeasure. They responded with a $20 credit. For all ordered, I spent more than $190. Their response is so I can order more unkept flowers and overpriced chocolates for them to take more of my money. This company is deceitful, disrespectful and lacks common business decency. DO NOT PURCHASE FROM THIS COMPANY.

    I am so utterly disappointed with this company. I ordered the large flowers for my parents 25th wedding anniversary, and receive the small. I was on the phone for 1 hr 7 mins with no resolution. The rep kept providing me with her email address, that didn't work, even the contact@avasflowers.com didn't work, tried from different email addresses, so that I could show her the photo. I could have picked better flowers on the side of the freeway or from Safeway. I want to go big as it was their 25th. I was so embarrassed when my mum sent me the photo. I am so disappointed that there was nothing Avas could do, I have the photo. It is absolutely not what I ordered or paid for.

    On another note, I received an email stating the flowers had been delivered at 4:30pm, well they were not, they got delivered at 5:10pm. I work in customer service, and if I treated my customers like how Avas did, well I woudn't have a job. Customers are king/queen, customer are what keep businesses open. I understand that Avas is like a broker, however to partner with a flower shop in Livermore, CA that is deceitful and does not have any integrity is just shameful. I will never ever order from this company again.

    My father passed away on May 3rd from Covid-19. I called Avas Flowers and ordered a lavender spray with a banner saying, "Loving wife," a lavender heart wreath with a banner that said, "Love, your girls," and a heart-shaped pillow with 8 purple roses (8 grandkids) with a banner that said, "We love you grandpa." The gentleman I spoke to said that because the pillow came with three roses obviously he would have to charge me for the extra roses which is totally fine. He added on an $88 arrangement that I kept saying is this what you're putting on the pillow because it seems kind of expensive and he continued to say yes.

    The day of the funeral which was horrible since it was my father and because only 10 people were allowed to be there with no hugging. I look at the flowers and not a single thing was correct! The $30 in banners that I bought we're all cards and every card said "we love you grandpa". The heart-shaped pillow was a square pillow. It was supposed to have the eight purple flowers. It had three white flowers. And then the four thing that they charged me for for the extra roses was its own arrangement and it only had six flowers it didn't even have the eight flowers!

    I called that day to get a recording that said that they're busy and they'll call me back. Pick a time so I did that and they never called back, I called the next day. Same thing happened again. I called every day for over a week and I finally got someone to give me a manager to speak to. The manager who I was having a hard time understanding in the first place said to me that he would refund that they're only supposed to refund the missing items which would be the three banners for $30. He said that the designers only do what the recipe says, they don't change things (completely bs). I said how I didn't order that $88 arrangement that I just asked for extra flowers on the pillow. He said that those two things would get refunded as well after arguing for a while.

    Few days later I look at my bank statement and I only had the $30 refund so I just called back again was on hold for over half an hour then talking to people trying to get to the manager. The manager finally answers and that precedes to tell me that he never said that I was getting a refund on anything that it's all recorded and he put me on hold to listen to the recording that I had with the gentleman I placed the order with and tells me that I told him to add the fourth arrangement.

    This is a complete lie. I've never been so angry in my life. My father just died. We're in a state home so only 10 people could be at the funeral. Nothing that my father wanted at his funeral could he have but at least I could have got him the flowers he wanted and this place ruined that. The even more messed up part was that the first few people that I spoke to offered me a 10% discount or a store credit and things like that. At least they tried to make it better. The manager just said, "Sorry you agreed to it." I wish I knew how horrible this place was before I ordered!

    Placed order on 5/10 for delivery to FL. Scheduled delivery date was 5/15. Flowers never arrived. No delivery confirm. Tried to get info on website ("we have no delivery on file"). Tried to get human on the phone but their system has no such option. By 5.18, still no delivery and no confirmation or other communication from Avas. So canceled the order on their website. Suddenly a human being appeared. The Avas rep claimed that the delivery address was incorrect (house number 764 vs. 754) and said the flowers were delivered to that address. I was skeptical since I never got a delivery confirmation. Because 764 is right next door, I had recipient contact the homeowner at 764. They had not been home for weeks, never received or accepted flower delivery and no flowers were left at the property. With this proof, I went back to Avas.

    Avas refused to offer any refund, still claiming that flowers were delivered to 764 (despite PROOF that no flowers had been delivered to that address) and said it was my fault and therefore no refund. Although Avas claims they have a "delivery confirmation" (at 764), their website still, to this date, states "we have no delivery on file for this order" and I never received any kind of delivery confirmation (until I was told about one on the phone after demanding cancellation and refund). Needless to say, I do not believe any delivery was made at 764 and Avas know it, but is still refusing to provide a refund on the PRETEXT that the flowers were delivered to the wrong address.

    I read through the Mother's Day reviews and it sounds like we all had similar experiences, TERRIBLE. I typically order from Fort Myers Florist but with Covid they ran out of flowers so I was stuck with AVAS. I ordered a nice arrangement that they had listed on their website for $59.99. They told me they were "waiving" the delivery fee but added a $27.99 handling fee. 99$ so I paid it expecting the flowers to be delivered to my Mom's home along with my card.

    The flowers were delivered on time alright, to one of my Mom's neighbors across the street and the neighbor is at their Summer home. The flowers sat there for 3 days until my Dad figured out that they might be next door. Flowers were baked in the box and in terrible condition. Not only did they deliver to the wrong house but there was no card attached with my personal message.

    You can't call AVAS Flowers directly to dispute issues like this, you have to submit a customer support ticket and they call you. On the phone with customer support this morning (non-us call center) initially they just confirmed the delivery address and claimed the flowers were delivered properly. I argued the facts and in an attempt to get me off the phone they offered me a 15$ online credit (like I'm ever going to use them again). I honestly laughed and I told them I want the full amount returned or a new delivery of flowers to my Mom including the card. I'm giving them until the end of the day then I'm disputing the charge with Visa. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY, DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!!

Then later on May 8th I get this letter here, and noticed on the order they changed my order to a 12 stem rose bouquet which was cheaper than the medium size vase arrangement I had bought. So I called avas customer line, which by the way the guy was nice on phone and said, "Sorry about this. We will try and get your order out hopefully by Sunday May 10th, but worst case scenario on Monday the 11th" and proceeded to give me credit back for that mistake and threw in a small box of chocolates as a sorry.

    So here we are today the 12th saying it might be at my mom's by the 14th.... which btw avas been changing the schedule delivery date since day 1 but still giving them the benefit of the doubt....

There was no note with message either!! I complained and they offered $10 store credit. BEWARE. I should have read reviews first and just lost $100!!! WORST EXPERIENCE and WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE!!

    I thought I was buying these flowers from a real florist. I paid $96 with service fee and my other-in-law received her flowers with a Safeway invoice. The flowers look like they were $20 from the Safeway florist. I thought these were coming from an actual florist. They were delivered by some random kid in an old car. I asked for a bouquet that was advertised as lavender colors etc and what was received were 6 purple roses that were already opened and looked like they are about to start wilting and a handful of Lilies that I did not want!! Their smell is too strong and since when are Lilies lavender. I specifically chose the lavender bouquet.

    The flower group I ordered included lilies, roses, large mum like flower and other little blooms. The flowers were discounted, the delivery was free with a coupon, then there was a $19.99 service charge because I wanted it delivered that day. I was Ok with this. Later I received notice they would have to deliver it when possible due to Covid-19 and they would upgrade the flowers and give me $10 credit with Avas. Once again I thought OK. Well they delivered the flowers, the flowers were not an upgrade, they looked like a $12 Walmart bouquet, no vase no water and my niece was scrambling to get them freshened up before she sent a pic. and thanked me.

    I was quite disappointed in the service. The flowers were substandard for the $58.58 I paid!!! The flowers were not upgraded, and I would have been happy if they were nearly as lovely as the picture they presented for the so called Jumping for Joy Bouquet in my original order!! I will not give them my service again and will leave bad reviews, which I usually don't do!!!

    Just as everyone has stated before, the flowers that were delivered look NOTHING like what we purchased. They look like a cheap version of what you can get at a grocery store, and even those are better. I wrote a complaint on their website which of course lets you write the bare minimum for what the issue is. A representative called the next day. I informed them of the issue and stated I would email them photos so they could see the huge discrepancy. So far I have heard nothing back but from the reviews I've been reading online, they have a horrible reputation and provide nothing in return for dissatisfied customers. Last time I will ever purchase through this company. Wish I would have seen these reviews before we paid the ridiculous amount of money it costs through them.

    I normally don't write reviews on companies, and in the rare occasion I do, it's almost always never a good thing. That said, I recently ordered a bouquet of flowers for my mother for Mother's Day. A simple $40 flower arrangement that I thought she would enjoy (since she loves flowers and is one with a green thumb). Well, apparently, once I submitted my order, not only did I get an additional shipping fee of $30 (despite the $9.99 coupon discount), but I never received an email confirmation of my order, although while I've tried to track my order online periodically this past week, it said it was scheduled to arrive today, 5/8/2020 (but because Mother's Day is a popular holiday to be giving/receiving flowers, I understood that my mother may get them later this weekend...hopefully in time for Mother's Day).

    However, today is the 8th, and still no email confirmation nor notice that the order is on its way. (Not to mention, silly me assumed when placing the order, this was a local vendor and didn't thoroughly read the location of where it was, which is why I will place 5% of the blame on this gift fiasco on myself and be nice enough to give this company an additional half-star rating, if that was possible.) After frustration of no updates from my order and reading previous reviews on here about this vendor, I tried to cancel my order online, but apparently, my request was repeatedly denied, and I kept being referred to calling customer service. So I did (twice), and both times, customer service ending up hanging up on me!

    I've worked in customer service for years, and I understand how difficult it is to satisfy customer's needs (especially difficult ones), but hanging up on customers and brushing off customers' complaints/issues (even if the call volume is high) guarantees a customer not coming back. In my case, I've learned (the hard way) to never do business with Avas Flowers EVER AGAIN! They're nothing but scammers and fraudsters, and they make their products overpriced by jacking up the shipping costs. I'm surprised with how many negative reviews I've seen on this company, that Avas Flowers still exists. Guess I know now to be careful on my online shopping search when ordering flowers. Shop local, y'all, and don't give in to Avas Flowers!

    Google [your city] florists. Chances are Avas Flowers will pop up with an ad bragging about being the number one florist in that area. False. They are an online only company who contracts out with local florists. Flowers are always late if they ever show up at all. Rarely do families get anything close to what they ordered. Customer service is an absolute nightmare. I am a funeral director, often families are tricked into ordering through Avas only to be heartbroken when their expensive flowers show up to the funeral home a day or two after the funeral. When Avas drops the ball, I am left to pick up the pieces, often buying flowers myself from florists I trust in order to make it up to them. Absolutely unacceptable.

    I sent it immediately and called again, this time getting a recording telling me to leave my number and a requested time for them to call me back. I scheduled it for that same day between 2-2:30 pm. NO CALL. Big surprise.
