I live in WI and called a (520) area code which I assumed I was talking to someone in Tubac, AZ (as described on google) and thought perfect that I was talking to someone local and not some #800. Boy, was I wrong!!! I placed my order on Wednesday 5/5, to have an arrangement delivered to my Mom in AZ on Friday 5/7 for Mother's Day. Much to my surprise when I called her on Mother's Day, I find out that she didn't receive her flowers. I called the same 520 phone number immediately and was asked to leave a voicemail, but couldn't because the voicemail box was full. Now I am mad and feel like I was scammed! I called on Monday 5/10 and was advised that the 2 florists in the area were unable to fill the order, so my order was cancelled!!! They didn't even have the consideration to call. I wish I would have been smarter and checked them out more thoroughly. DO NOT USE THE FLORIST CONCIERGE!! You will be disappointed for sure.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978099791522523959.post-25471999184314701872010-02-19T19:57:46.364-08:002010-02-19T19:57:46.364-08:00The flowers I ordered eventually arrived, albeit t...The flowers I ordered eventually arrived, albeit three days late. In the end, I was able to get a refund of $40 out of their sorry behinds. <br /><br />If you have ay problems, here's what worked for me: I told them straight up that I was an extremely unhappy customer, then I asked what could they do to make me a happy customer? They responded w/ a $25 refund, I said that won't make me happy, but $40 will, they agreed and credited my account a few days later. it also may have helped that I not so subtly mentioned that I happened to be an attorney. Just be up front, firm but not mean, and don't take no for an answer if they give you any bullsh!t.

The delivery person just plain lied when he told JustFlowers that he had rung the doorbell, phoned, and left a voice message on Dec. 30. I was near the door and phone ALL day; he did not come or phone; nor did he come on 12/31. It took 4-5 calls on 12/31 to try to track down the flowers; the co. repeatedly failed to call with updates despite assurances after each call that they would do so. Finally, on Jan. 2 an unprotected, unwrapped vase of aging, bruised flowers was left unannounced outside in 24 degree weather and heavy winds. Delivery did not ring doorbell; he did phone after he had gotten away. JustFlowers refused to refund because "the delivery was made." It was "fulfilled" four days late with old flowers after JustFlowers refused to cancel the missing order on Jan. 2. I understand things can go awry; what really angered me was that the delivery person lied, the company would not respond during the search, and JustFlowers would not refund because "the delivery was made," even if it was four days late with old, bruised flowers! Surely any other source would be better than JustFlowers!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978099791522523959.post-67735449199185228882009-11-12T16:11:40.789-08:002009-11-12T16:11:40.789-08:00Really handy to have the local results come up now...Really handy to have the local results come up now.

They may not simply rely on an advertiser's assurance that the claims are substantiated. In determining whether an ad agency should be held liable, the FTC looks at the extent of the agency's participation in the preparation of the challenged ad, and whether the agency knew or should have known that the ad included false or deceptive claims."<br /><br />FTD is far more than just a hosting company when it comes to florists. They financially benefit from the transactions in a significantly greater way than a typical hosting service/client relationship. <br /><br />Would love to hear more details about this new FTD assertion of content control. Does it also apply to their non-hosted affiliates and to the feeder sites that place dubious content elsewhere but send shoppers to FTD hosted shopping carts?Cathy Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14043522569732110871noreply@blogger.com
