What should I start with? The fact that the owner yelled at her and then slammed the phone down, after he told her that online orders go on the back shelf?
The kids pooled their money to send my sister flowers for Mother's Day. Sunday, no flowers; Monday, no flowers; Tuesday-no flowers...but hey, on Tuesday night, got a nice phone call from a lady 7 miles away telling her she has the flowers! The flowers had already started to wilt by the time she drove over and picked them up Wednesday morning. So, she placed a call to the florist and explained what happened, trying to get a refund put on her daughter's card. The owner was so belligerent and rude that it was astounding! Proceeded to tell her that they never refund any online orders, even though they advertise they are an FTD florist, and have a 100% money back guaranty on their own website! He claimed that the online provider is the one who messed up the address, however the card with the flowers had the correct address listed. He YELLED "Well, that is news to me!" Then, he asked if she knew how busy he was on Mother's Day and that they had run out of flowers! No apologies. No refund. And, apparently, she is not the only one. Five reviewers on YELP! had similar exchanges. This guy seems to make a habit of slamming the phone down on his customers.
This guy seriously needs to up his meds, and sell the business. STAY AWAY, STAY AWAY, STAY AWAY...YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
"This Lady is wrong on all counts. She ordered thru FTD service instead of calling a local florist where her Mom lives. A google search would have found one she could have called directly and that florist would have full control of the order and have delivered it on time. Instead when a person uses a wire service such as FTD, Bloonmet, Teleflora, the order is routed in their system and there is no control by the florist as to when they receive the order to full fill. Wire services always over book order deliveries and send then electronically to florists who service them. This Mother's Day weekend was no exception. By the time we got the order it was late on the evening on the 13th. We completed the order the following morning. As far as the arrangement goes, the wire services are notorious of showing a larger premium picture called premium with a standard arrangement size price for the order, therefore the customer thinks that they did not get what they ordered. It is true if the customer called the florist directly, there would be no lag time to get the order completed and delivered. We have cancelled our contract with FTD due to issues like this. Would be willing to send her mother an arrangement for her birthday if the customer would like free to compensate for her ill feelings toward us. All she has to do is call us directly and ask for Donna and we will make it happen."
