ELDERLY FATHER'S WISHES NOT FULFILLED My elderly (86) year old Dad who has not bee well wanted me to send flowers to his daughters for helping him. I arranged to send them on his behalf to my sister in Texas. I ordered them on the Wednesday prior to Mother's Day and there was not issue raised in that process nor was I told there might be. On the morning of delivery I received a notice indicating that they were unable to deliver. Obviously this left me no time on such a busy floral day to reorder elsewhere. Bloomex said in that cancellation that they were sorry for the inconvenience and if you were prepared to wait the 2 days after Mother's Day being the following Monday or Tuesday I could reorder and they would give me a free upgrade. I went that route and quickly regretted it as come the following Monday or Tuesday, no flowers, yet again. I subsequently spent over 4 hours of my time trying to ascertain if they would ever be sent, including telephone and online chat which got me nowhere. Finally after requesting a supervisor contact me I was "promised" they would be sent but they were not. I got another notice on the day of delivery and again cancelled and this time they issued a refund. The problem is with this method of resolving there is no winner. I was strung along with promises it would be rectified a long with the incentive of a bigger better which was never received and to add insult to injury because I am in Canada but paying in US funds I actually lost money on the exchange over the 2 weeks of trying to get this sorted out. In total I lost almost 10$ in the transactions. The customer service and response time was shameful. They really do not give a hoot about their customers. I finally contacted From You Flowers and within 2 days my flowers were delivered. Beautiful and fresh. As expressed by others on here too if you have a date that is important do not trust what this company tells you. They will make promises they have no intention of even keeping. BLOOMEX: NEVER NEVER again......
