      We are so sorry to hear that your order was delivered late.  We understand the emotional importance behind sending a gift for an occasion such as a funeral service and the frustration and upset it causes when there are delivery issues.  Your order has been canceled and refunded in full to your original payment method.  Once again, we are so sorry for failing you.

      I ordered a floral arrange in 12/20 for funeral for an employees parent 3 days later. I did not find out until 1/1 that the arrangement was cancelled and never delivered. I contacted FTD and got "I am so sorry" but we did try to contact you via email after the event to let you know. I did not receive any email notifications from FTD that they were cancelling this order and when asked why they did not call they simply stated that they sent an email. They stated the emails that they sent me were dated 12/23 and 12/25. they then tried to tell me that they could not find a florist to do this because it was to close to Christmas. Then she tried to tell be that the closet florist was over 100 miles away (the funeral was in a large city). Now our company looks terrible for not acknowledging a long time valued employees loss and I will not get a refund for close to a month.

      We are so sorry we were unable to complete this delivery. We have verified that the refund has been processed. As an apology an offer for a complimentary delivery to the family was sent to the customer.

      On Dec. 13 I ordered flowers from FTD for ****** using a Groupon and Credit Card for payment. The flowers delivered were not at all what I paid for, and I filled out an online form requesting resolution. I received a very quick response assuring me that the amount would be refunded, and the email (see accompanying photo) indicated that the amount would be refunded to my credit card, for which I was grateful because I had used a Groupon and had made FTD aware of that fact. But that's not what happened. The ***** was returned to me the same day, but it took over two weeks and almost 40 emails and two phone calls to receive resolution. FTD says they will credit the customer, but the customer has to fight for their funds. In one phone call, a supervisor told me that they do not even have a mechanism to refund the customer all of the funds, and that they also do not have an escalation process. He told me there was no one above him who could assist, and that it was impossible for them to complete the refund. He admitted that they send automated emails, and that the email I received did not apply to my order. I believe FTD should stop telling people they will refund their money when they will not. Further investigation online reveals that this is a common problem. After hearing from a supervisor that they do not have an escalation process, I reached out to FTD leaders that I found online. These business practices lack integrity and take advantage of people when they are most vulnerable. FTD should stop telling people they will refund the order when the customer has to do all of the work for their mistake.

      We sincerely apologize for any misunderstandings regarding the refund of your order.  Unfortunately, we are unable to refund more than what was paid to our company.  The amount that was charged to your credit card through the ordering process, is what FTD would have credited to your payment method.  During the refund process, the gift card or voucher would be reinstated for future use. This is why you were informed that the full amount was refunded to your payment method (meaning the $29.98 was credited to your credit card, and the remaining voucher amount of $75 was returned to the gift card or voucher used).  Since you were not charged $75 to purchase the *******, a refund of that amount to your credit card is not possible. Any Groupons that are purchased, need to be refunded through *********** since they are the online retailer that sold the voucher.   Once Groupon customer service verifies with ********************** that a refund was issued, we give approval to either reinstate or refund the voucher cost, depending on the customer's wishes.  Once again, we apologize for the frustration you experienced during your time with FTD.

      I am rejecting this response because: the business continually justifies their response, but does not address the root cause. Their automated reply does not match their actions for their refunds. They tell the customer one thing, but do something different. This is a decepetive business practice that needs to be fixed (or escalated) to be fair to the consumer. Please see the attached response from FTD regarding their refund. The amount they refunded was less than $30. 

      Sincerely,

      ******* **** **********

      We apologize for any misunderstandings, as well as your experience.  We have attached screenshots of your charges for your FTD order.  As you were only charged $29.98 on your credit card with our company, that is the only amount we are able to refund to your payment method.  The remaining $75 was a Groupon (Gift certificate), which was purchased for half the cost of the amount it is worth when making a purchase on an FTD order. This amount is automatically reinstated back to your Groupon (gift certificate) at the time the refund is initiated.  As you did not wish to reinstate the voucher, but instead receive a refund for the amount you paid, Groupon would have refunded the amount you were charged for their service.

      Complaint: 22750019

      I am rejecting this response because: Although the business continues to reiterate the math for this order, they do not address their auto-responses that promise resolution that is different than what they say their system is capable of. FTD should discontinue the practice of replying with an automated reply that promises a refund of the full retail price of the product (see attached) while refunding only the price they charged directly to the customer's credit card, which is significantly less than the amount they state in their automated reply. 

      Sincerely,

      Order placed online for delivery of flowers today. I received confirmation that order was placed and that order would be delivered today. Then I receive an email requesting I call their office, which I did. They wanted a whole lot of personal financial information which I reluctantly provided. Now, the delivery is in limbo, ****'re not respindung and I'm afraid my personal information has been compromised.

      Flowers were delivered when it was 10 degrees outside. Left on deck for 5 hours. Flowers were not good after that long. Wanted the giver to just be reimbursed and did not want her to have to go through the hassle as she is an older lady. I'm sure they had her credit card info but they said they could not do that unless they got a call from her.. Pretty disappointed.

      We apologize that the weather effected the quality of the thoughtful gift that was sent for the holidays.  We reached out to the sender directly and resolved the issue.  Unfortunately, as the person filing the complaint is the recipient, we are unable to handle monetary compensation with them directly.

      I purchased a Christmas centerpiece from *****************************. I paid extra for same day shipping, my total cost added up to $102 for flowers. I expect $100 worth of product and to get the product I paid for. The flowers were delivered to my mother the recipient on 12/19/24 though the arrangement was nice, it was a far cry from what I paid for. The arrangement my mom received looked more like a casket arrangement than a Christmas centerpiece. The colors were pinks and bright greens, the greenery was supposed to be Christmas greenery and what was received, was some sort of bright ***** **** species.The website does say that some things may be substituted based on local availability, but this was not even close in look or value to what I ordered. I called customer service, I could barely understand them, but they said they understood and would redeliver a better and more similar arrangement on 12/20/24. That day went and no redelivery. Now they won't reply to my emails either. I want a full refund. They had their chance to make this right. I will accept this a replacement, but it has to be 1:1 to what I paid for, nothing less.

      Date: 12/30/2024

      I purchased two premium arrangements to be delivered on 12/23. Only one was delivered. I had to call about the second one and it was delivered the next day. Neither arrangement looked anything like what I ordered. It had only a few flowers compared to the picture. Very misleading.

      I purchased a floral arrangement on 12/22/24 for delivery on 12/23/24. Delivery did not arrive until 8pm. The item delivered did not match what was ordered (see attachments below) after going back and forth when them through email. They apologize and said they will refund me 50% of the cost. I then received another email saying my refund of $25 was submitted. I paid $90 for the arrangement (not including taxes and shipping which put my total at $110) which means 50% would be $45. At this point, I would like a full refund for; not providing the customer with what was ordered, the hassle for going back and forth with customer service, being deceived by the company, ruining the occasion for which the floral arrangement was intended.

      I ordered flowers using two phone numbers-- ************ and ************ on Monday December 16 for a friend in ************, **, who is having surgery, There are 2 order numbers provided which added to the chaos- 619 ******** and 604 ***** 271. I paid $69.00 which included the flowers, delivery and ********** is the problem. When I ordered the flowers, I originally asked for delivery on Thursday December 19. I found out that the surgery was changed and immediately called FTD and talked at length with a representative, who agreed to change the delivery date to Saturday December 21. To make sure this was resolved and done properly, I asked the representative to read it back to me and they absolutely assured me that this was in the system and that the delivery date would be adjusted.Despite this, the flowers were delivered on the original date, December 19, and not the new date. For a variety of reasons, I was displeased, most prominently because it was delivered on the wrong date, and not the date I was assured would occur. I called FTD this morning and talked to a supervisor. This individual at first said, because of the FTD error, flowers would be delivered at no cost to me on the date I had requested. I then asked if the flowers could be delivered to me on that date, and I would take it to my friend who experienced the surgery. The supervisor came back 5 minutes later and said they had to retract the concession and would not deliver the flowers. Instead, he offered a "partial refund" of the $69 originally paid. After haggling the final offer was a measly $22.73 refund. For the inconvenience, annoyance and the fact the flowers were delivered on the wrong date, I told him this was totally. *************** resolve this problem, I am asking for the following: a full refund of the original purchase, a voucher for a future flower purchase from FTD, and an apology from the company. Thank you.Regards, ******* *******
