I ordered flowers to be send to a funeral home. When I got there, after searching and reading all the cards, I finally found it but...it was NOT the arrangement I ordered. It was a wreath! And the card had the message I wrote BUT....there was NO name on it! How embarrassing and unprofessional! Last time I ever use Bloomstoday!

I ordered flowers to be delivered to a dear friend's funeral that I could not attend. They did not deliver them due to no florist in the area. The family now thinks that I disregarded them. Why did they offer a service, charge me, and send me confirmation if they do not have advanced knowledge in that zip and city?

This company just rudely cancelled my order today, SENT AFTER I ALREADY HAD PLACED AN ORDER THINKING IT WAS ON ITS WAY!!! This insulted me and offended the one I was trying to please because NOW IT WILL BE LATE AND SEEMS AS IF I FORGOT! Now they will not get any flowers for 2 additional days! Why? Because they FALSELY advertised that they could deliver them THE NEXT DAY! Other florists had their sites say if I placed in the next hour I could get in 2 days but I thought since you offered to deliver the next day it was better.
So not only did I rudely get NOTIFIED that you WOULD NOT deliver as promised - you totally cancelled my order!! So now it is too late to order from another florist, too late to get a delivery tomorrow, and your order is not even under consideration, with NO question to me if I still wanted it!! YOU OFFERED ME A SERVICE THEN CANCELLED MY ORDER!! Now my floral order will be like 3-4 days late! This is horrible customer service and I am highly offended that you have the nerve to do this to a customer!! I am very very upset with your illegal false advertising this way just to take business away from others with false advertising, and sticking me with NO FLOWERS, and sticking me with an unnecessary delay since other florists cannot now get my order in time!! Your customer service is horrible, horrible!!!

I wish I could give them no stars. I have never had anything like this happen to me and I will never have another order with them EVER. I ordered flowers yesterday for my friend, and wanted them sent to her work. I even called today to make sure that they understood the notes and that everything was good to go. I was assured that everything was good and she would receive the flowers. I got a call at 3pm stating that they could not find a shop in the area that delivered there.
So wait, I called to even double check and was told no problem, then was called at 3pm the day the flowers were suppose to arrive and told they don't have any shops that will deliver. Mind you, this business is in SEATAC right by the airport. They didn't apologize or anything. They told me that it happens and that they will deliver them tomorrow. I told them no, I will go somewhere else and I wanted a refund. I had to get all the way to a manager before they would give me a refund. UGH. What a joke of a business.

I was trying to find a place to review Bloomstoday.com since my mom loved her flowers so much and I was stunned to see so many negative reviews. My mother LOVED her flowers. She said they are better than any FTD or other places I have sent to here. She sent me an email saying that they were packaged over the top well and were exquisite. I sent her 2 bouquets for her 60th bday and she was just thrilled with the quality. I will use them again guaranteed.

My daughter, college student away at school ordered flowers for my wife, on her birthday. They never arrived. She called to inquire where the flowers were. Their records indicate they were delivered. I assume to a wrong address. So we confirmed they were never received, and my daughter requested they send another arrangement. These jokers told her she'd have to pay the rush charges to get them to be delivered on time. This was to correct THEIR DELIVERY ERROR! What a joke. Of course my daughter is a meek girl and she succumbed. Stay away from these jerks. Oh and the arrangement they did finally deliver several days after her birthday was more expensive and half to one third the size/number of stems as another friend ordered from a local fresh market (Adams Fairacre). Blooms Today is not worth the money nor the aggravation of their clueless customer service.

I lost my sister to cancer recently and my mother-in-law sent me some flowers from BloomsToDay.com. The first delivery arrived on my porch on a very cold day so by the time I found them they were frozen and dead. My husband called the company and told them that dead flowers do not cheer up anyone. They apologized and sent more flowers the next day. This time I received the flowers as soon as they arrived. However, these were not in much better shape than the first batch. I could not tell my mother-in-law that the flowers I received were ugly and half dead, so I lied to her and said "thank you." She meant well, but she just picked a very bad company to provide the gift. I am writing this to inform and prevent someone from sending dead, ugly flowers to a loved-one that is already feeling depressed.

I ordered a Christmas bouquet. It was supposed to be a white and red Christmas themed bouquet. Instead they sent a purple and orange bouquet. I chalked it up to being Christmas. I ordered a birthday bouquet 2 days ago and they delivered the wrong bouquet again. Didn't have the right flowers and they forgot the birthday balloon. They were supposed to redeliver the right bouquet today and they didn't bother to deliver them at all. This place should not be in business.

DON'T EVEN THINK OF ORDERING ANYTHING WITH THESE GUYS! I ordered flowers to be delivered at my wife's office, but they were never delivered. I paid extra cash for same-day delivery, but they did nothing about it. When I called at 12 pm, they said they will deliver by 3 pm, but when I called at 3 pm, they said they will deliver by 5 pm. When I called at 4:45 pm inquiring about the delivery, the EXTREMELY RUDE lady said, "You have 15 minutes left. If we cannot deliver, we will repay all the money." I called her again at 6:28 pm, and she had no clue that the delivery was never made. Her only answer was "Sorry", and when I asked her what about the fact that I wanted to give my wife flowers on a special day, her reply was "I can't do anything about it."
These people are a bunch of crooks who should not be allowed to do business. Just a bunch of ridiculous, lazy thieves. She promised to send me an email confirming a complete refund, but I have had nothing in the past 24 hours. PLEASE KEEP OFF

So very, very disappointed and angry with this company. I placed an order on Monday, May 6th (not yesterday or today, but almost a week ago) for a Mother's Day delivery in Hawaii. Blooms took my order, took my money and confirmed it. Then today, Mother's Day, a Sunday, I got an email cancellation and a voicemail that says, "Sorry, our florists in that area can't accommodate any more deliveries on Mother's Day. We'll cancel your order and refund your money within 5-7 business days. You can place a new order if you want it delivered Monday," which is so not Mother's Day. Are you serious? You've had my order and my money for almost a week, and you wait until this morning when I have no way to order from another more reputable vendor to cancel my order? Then you won't give me my money back for another week?
And of course, when I called the 800 number in their email cancellation, I got a recorded message and the news that their customer service people will be in on Monday. So no one I can even speak with. Now my mother, who I can't be with on Mother's Day (since I live in CA), has nothing. Not that I would ever use this company again, but you don't even have the decency to offer me a massive discount on my next order. Or better yet, to deliver the order I originally placed (again, last Monday) tomorrow and still refund my money since you screwed up so badly. Yep, getting more angry as I write this. I will never use this company again.

I discover a few weeks ago that the company, Bloomstoday.com, has been charging me $9.99 a month for over two years to my American Express credit for a membership that I do not recall joining. I noticed the charged on my October 2012 account and proceeded to call the number shown on the card. I spoke to Dawn at Blooms Today on Nov. 1, 2012. She stated that I made a purchase back in 2010 of flowers through another website. I supposedly took a discount on the purchase that made me join the Blooms Reward program with the Bloomstoday.com website. I informed her that I did not recall any agreement to such program and I did not receive any notice of being part of it.
I asked for a full refund of my money. She stated that she could not refund me the 25 months charged, that she could only do 9 months. I argued with the company that I never received mail notice or email notice stating I was part of any membership. I have never used the service that they supposedly provide, and I never received any products from them. I requested all the money that was charged. Dawn informed me that only the supervisor could make that decision. The next day, Katherine (supervisor) called me. No resolution was made. She argued they couldn’t return the money. She offered up to a year refund. This is not enough. I was being charged for absolutely no service and was not notified once of the charges, membership information, account number, or the services they provide.

On 5/6//12, I ordered the serenity arrangement for my sister-in-law for Mother's Day. I wanted it to be a morning delivery as she had a funeral to go to on Saturday, 5/12/12. I contacted Blooms Today and asked them to deliver them to my home instead. They arrived at our home at 3:15 pm on 5/12/12. This arrangement was to be in a copper colored container with orange, green and lavender roses with crystal stems in the arrangement. The item that was delivered was a glass bowl with two dead white lilies, 4 red roses, and some green and purple filler stuff.
This is not what I ordered or even remotely close. I had to run to a florist and buy a dozen white roses to fill in where the dead lilies were. The florist that delivered this is about 20 miles from our home. We have 5 florists within a 6-mile radius of our home. I will never, ever order another arrangement from Blooms Today. I had used them before and was more than delighted with the arrangement that was delivered for a dear friend's funeral. I will make sure that I warn everyone that I know about this scam and joining this club to get discounts. I want all of my money back and I do not want to be a member of their hokey club.

I ordered flowers for my aunt's funeral online. I called to check if I put my aunt's name on the card, they could not find my order. They said that they would check into it and said my aunt's flowers would get there in time, and also said would call me back. No one called, I called again the next morning, they said that they would send it to a supervisor and they will call me again but said the flower would get there again. I called again and still could not find my order and again said they would call and that the flowers would still get there. I called again when I was getting dressed for the funeral on Saturday and still could not find my order and that the florist were closed and was sorry but there was no way the flowers could get there now. I called 5 times, someone should have fixed this. They said it must have been a glitch in the system, but they made sure to take the funds out of my account.

I placed my Valentines order with Blooms Today on Feb 9th with a delivery date of Feb 14th. Aside from automatically being signed up for their rewards program, which costs $9.99 and cannot be canceled until 22 days later, I received my confirmation number and my account was charged within minutes with no indication or messages of any problems with receiving the product and services that I had paid for. On Feb 14th, at 8:03, my wife sends me a text saying, "Ok, I thought that you would send me flowers... Disappointed." Needless to say, the flowers never showed up and the customer service number only provided a pre-recording that stated that all orders are in process for delivery and if there are any problems to call back tomorrow at 8:00AM.
Now that my Valentines Day was single-handedly destroyed by Blooms Today, I promptly called back the next day to only be told that they were very sorry and that I was entitled to a refund or a delivery at a later time. No manager to escalate the matter to and no other options? How does a company stay in business with that kind of customer service? You screw up, for whatever reason, and fail to deliver the product and service that you advertised you would. Then you don't even try and make it all right with your customer. I mean how do you not refund the total amount and follow through with your obligation of delivering some type of apologetic flower arrangement? BBB, here I come!

I placed a order on 2/10/12, for flowers and candy to my wife for our 39th anniversary, to be delivered 2/14/12. They never made the delivery. They never contacted me and they had promptly charged my Visa card. Now, I've been trying to contact by phone this company, to no avail. They have a recording stating they can't answer the phone, try again later. Ten hours later, I realized that on their web page there is no way to email or even a customer service chat line available. Now, all I'm trying to do is get a credit to my Visa card for the $82.49 and cancel this order. At this time, I would hate to think that I am a victim of a major scam, as I have been checking complaint sites for this company, and have found tons of complaints for "Blooms Today". Highly upset.

I wanted to order flowers for a bereavement. I got the order placed and then was offered a discount if I would join their Rewards program for $9.99 per month and receive an immediate $35 discount on my current order. I joined, got my discount and then read the details of some of the programs available. After a week, I decided their programs were not worth the $9.99 per month fee.
I tried to cancel the membership and was told I could not cancel the membership until after I was member for 21 days because this is the amount of time "required to process your membership" from their website. I called them and was told the same thing. This is a scam to keep me enrolled. This company needs to change their terms. There are other flower companies available and I will go to one of them in the future.

I ordered flowers via the Internet back in May. Unbeknownst to me, I recently realized that I was given a monthly membership to the company with a fee. Also, I was enrolled in an identity theft protection account with a monthly revolving fee. I called the company and found their customer service representatives to be defensive and unresponsive to my concerns. I asked to speak with a supervisor; I was told she was in a meeting. I questioned the charges and was told that their computers were down. I was told that a supervisor would call back, which never happened. The deceptive business practices, with the dreadful customer service, led me to contact your agency.

On May 6, 20011, I ordered items that came to the total of $102.58 from the company "Blooms Today" for a Mother's Day gift. On May 10, 2011, I received an email from them stating:
Dear Emely-May:
With reference to your order **, Blooms Today is unable to deliver the order as requested. Unfortunately, we were unable to locate a florist that can deliver to the zip code provided in the recipient. This order has been cancelled and a full credit is being issued. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.
It is now August 28, 2011 and I still haven't received my money back, when the company claims they stand behind their 100% money back guarantee. I've called them numerous amounts of time and they either tell me its customer service that we'll deliver your message or that they sent the request and it takes a few days.

I ordered flowers from Bloomstoday.com for a sick co-worker (it was on top of the Google search results) and noticed an extra $9.95 charge. Luckily, another search told me this was a monthly scam.

I ordered flowers on-line for a birthday present. The flowers were ordered on July 24th to be delivered on July 25th. In the comment box I asked that they be delivered in the morning and to please call first. I do understand that it said on the website that they would try to accommedate my request, but I guess they couldn't. The flowers were not delivered and the florist left a message to call for deliverly.
When the person that I sent the flowers to called, a man ansered as was very rude he said, when ever we get a chance we will deliver them. She waited three days and no flowers. When she called back he was rude again, she asked who was sending the flowers to her and he would not and of course he would not tell her. She told him to cancel the flowers and he hung up on her once again. She then had her granddaughter call and she was hung up on also. After a couple of days, she finally called me and asked if I had sent her flowers, I told her I did and she told me what happened.
I called the telephone number on the website I ordered the flowers from, (bloomstoday)on Aug 1, 2007 and spoke to Kay, Kay said she would have someone call me back and of course no return call. Aug 2, 2007, I called again and went through the same recording and waited 4 minutes and finally Heather picked up, I gave her my order number and told her that I ordered flowers and they were not delivered, she asked me to hold on. I thought I was being put on hold, but I was transferred to a recording, so not only couldn't I tell my story, but heather didn't tell me she was transferring me. I went through the recording and pressed all the buttons to get my refund. I hung up very upset that I could not even tell someone my experence.
I received a telephone call about 10 minutes later from Robert saying that they got my request for a refund and it would be processed. I then said to him that I am upset about the way they handle their complaints, that you get a recording and press buttons and no one to tell your complaint to. He said I could give him the information if I wish, which I did, but he was not even concerned. I told him that the person I was sending the flowers to was an 84 year old women and did not need to be upset by this, when the purpose of the flowers was to make her happy. I was so uphappy with the way this whole thing happened and the company that I ordered from was not even concerned.
