: this company is deceptive. The flower delivered do not match what was purchased and they will not issue a refund. I purchased the deluxe arrangement and received an arrangement with little to no flowers for $160.00

Feb 15, 2026

My husband ordered flowers from this website to surprise me on valentines day. When i didn't receive anything i had to call them to make sure when they will deliver them. I called them 3 times and spoke with 3 different agents all of them saying that they cant track the order and they will give my number to the florist and he will give me the updates and since its valentines day they are busy and they will probably do the delivery at 7 pm. Nobody called me and i didn't receive anything.

So what I ordered would have been a beautiful and simple bouquet for my mother's birthday. What was delivered was a messy haphazard looking bunch of flowers that I would by no means call an arrangement. I ordered the premium bouquet and the total cost even with the discount was $103.77 The replacement for the Victorian Teacup was in my opinion an ugly teapot with a big gaudy pink rose on it. If what was sent was the listing photo I would have never purchased it. I ordered the Teleflora's Victorian Teacup Bouquet - Premium "Delivery/Substitution Policy - If the exact flowers or container you have selected are not available we will create a beautiful bouquet with the freshest available flowers. We will only substitute items of equal or higher value." That is laughable, what was sent was a gaudy mess of flowers that looked nothing like the online listing.

I order flowers for my mother birthday. I had them to be delivered on her birthday. When the day arrived I received a call that they were unable to to secure a florist that could deliver my flowers and they have to deliver tomorrow. I was annoyed as they called me mid day to let me know this. They said they were able to to find someone but it would be 10.00 more. I already paid 83.00 for these flowers. Of that 83.00 $20.00 of it was a handling fee. I told them I wasn't going to do that and they said ok we will continue to try and give you a call back. They never called me back but the following day my mom send me a photo of what she got. The arrangement was not even close to what I ordered. The arrangement looked awful and my mother said some of the flower were brown. When I called customer service they reach out to to florist and I was told that they provided their nicest vase and that champagne rose sometimes look brown, and the arrangement was put together tightly. Again the original item I ordered was flowers in a Victorian tea cup. I picked this arrangement because my mom loves victorian tea cups like this as her mother use to collect them. I was offered 20% off my order, which I feel was insulting since this wasn't even what I ordered. When I escalated this I was offered 25% off the total of the flowers, which was basically 14.00. I have learned my lesson and will never use this service again. I would caution anyone looking to use this service. Best best call a flower company that is local.

Beware! Bait and switch!
January 16, 2025

The first photo is what I ordered. I even upgraded to deluxe version for $70. The second photo is what I received. They are selling a version with more flowers for $55 on their website. They called me the day of delivery saying they couldn't make the exact arrangement but a new version would have the same amount of flowers. Never mentioned it would be only a fraction of the flowers on a small pillow. If I wanted a pillow I would have ordered it! This small heart pillow with a few flowers and no greenery was supposedly worth $70. Upon my complaint I was offered 15% refund. I again emailed and said it was very embarrassing how skimpy it was. They came back with a 25% credit and wouldn't budge from there. Stay away from this company!

Disappointing
January 15, 2025

I placed an order for a Christmas flower arrangement with this Flower Shop, and it was accepted and paid for, leading me to believe that everything was set for delivery. However, on the day of delivery, they contacted me to apologize and inform me that they could not fulfill the order due to excess volume of orders. While they did issue a refund, the late notice left me with no time to arrange an alternative delivery. This was very disappointing, and they did not offer any other compensation.

Terrible Flowers
January 1, 2025

Nothing like the photo, much much worse. When complaining, they said I should of said "no substitutions". Bouquet was supposed to have all roses in a tea cup and received carnations in a cheap glass.

Not as pictured online! Beware!
November 29, 2024

I ordered the Zen Lily arrangement (Deluxe) as I wanted my family to have a fall centerpiece for Thanksgiving. Instead, they received a white bouquet which resembled a funeral spray. It doesn't look anything like the Zen Lily - not one orange-colored flower! Additionally, the flowers sent began browning the next day. When I provided FlowerShopping.com with the photos, the response was the white arrangement was within the parameters of their contract with the local florist.
They did offer a 25% refund because of the browning of the flowers which I have yet to receive.
I would not order through this company - I don't care if they claim the fine print indicates they can substitute any flower they want - it should at least be within the color ordered and similar seasonal style. Like other unhappy customers have indicated, I wish I had read reviews first. I have found a local florist in the area with real 4+ star ratings and will use them next time. Bummed, I didn't do that this time!

DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING!
November 12, 2024

What I received is NOT what I ordered. The photo's speak for themselves. Specifically ordered a standing "Cross" and did not get a cross in any way, shape or form. Pretty bouquet, but not what I ordered.
If I wanted a full spray of flowers, I would have ordered that. Customer service could care less. HORRIBLE!

Substitutions are a joke
October 2, 2024

Order was different from what was pictured. They basically changed the entire order, vase and quantity of flowers. This was for a big celebration and I am incredibly disappointed. Please look at all reviews (not on their website) before buying like I did.

Bait & switch operation, stay away! When you call, their IVR system only takes orders, no other calls. Ordered online, they had unique arrangements: should have known it was too good to be true - and I should have read the reviews first.

What you see is NOT what you get
September 25, 2024

I purchased flowers for my daughter for very special birthday. I ordered what I thought would be a beautiful arrangement called "Lavender Sunshine". What was delivered was cheap, ugly and embarrassing. I will NEVER use them again and I would caution anyone else from doing so as well. The pictures show what is on the website and the other picture is what was delivered.

Scam Company - Thiefs
August 30, 2024

I placed an order on 8/29/2024 with a delivery date of 08/30/2024. The 3oth is my wife's birthday. I paid the money and was guaranteed delivery by 8/30/2024. The delivery was never made. I tried to contact the company by phone but kept getting the same message: Press 2 for delivery status. It simply kept repeating. Finally it did go to customer service but the message stated they were closed. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. They are simply thieves that take your money and deliver 0 product.

AWFUL EXPERIENCE
July 9, 2024

Ordered the "premium" tulips and what was delivered was embarrassing. There were 12 shriveled up tulips, never even opened. Just dead. Had some weeds mixed in. All for a total of $125.
Customer service offered me a 25% discount which is laughable. Even with the pics I provided (it truly was embarrassing a florist even sent them out) they felt customer service not worth it and stood by their crappy product/ florist. WILL NEVER ORDER FROM AGAIN.

I wish I could do a review with zero stars!
June 27, 2024

I knew today would be a tough day for a friend, so yesterday I ordered a potted plant to be delivered today in hopes of brightening her day. I even paid extra to have it delivered before noon. At about 1 pm (an hour after it was supposed to be delivered) I got a voicemail from them (my phone tagged their number as spam and sent them directly to vmail). I called them back and sat on hold for several minutes to speak to someone. The florist they were going through didn't have what I ordered so they offered an alternative plant they could deliver today, or I could wait until tomorrow to get what I originally ordered. I accepted the alternative plant since I really needed it delivered today to suit my purpose. About an hour later, they called again. Again, I had to call back and get a hold of a different person. Now the florist said the wholesaler they were going to pick up the alternative plant from, no longer had it. So, they offered to send another "blooming" plant instead. They couldn't tell me what kind of plant it would be or even what florist they were going through so I could speak to them directly. At that point, it was clear this is not a reliable business and by the time my friend got anything (IF they ever got anything) it would be late in the day and the purpose of me sending them would be ruined. Plus, at that point, I had no idea if she would get anything or what she would be getting if she got anything. So, I had them cancel the order. Supposedly, they will be refunding my money but I will have to double check to make sure they do. I definitely regret ever coming across flowershopping.com.

Buyer Beware!
June 20, 2024

Buyer Beware! What we ordered was not what we received! Ordered: 1. Ocean Breeze Spray/Item # T246-2A. The spray was to have white Asiatic lilies, blend of roses, with blue delphinium & hydrangea, set amidst ferns. Paid $188.00. The spray we received was of only white carnations & yellow lilies. This mix is particularly low cost & low value. Furthermore, the message card that we wrote was changed by the florist without approval. The florist's message had Incorrect spelling, grammar, capitalization, and names listed.

Our Card Message: Hunter, how very quietly you tiptoed into our world. You are a grandson that was taken from us far too soon, and in sorrow, we mourn you. You are now the Lords special angel. Forever in our hearts, The Lees, Bob/Papa, Stephanie/Nana, & Dorothy/Gr. Grandmama.

Instead, the florist wrote: "Your are now in the Lord's special angle for ever in our hearts Bob-Papa, Stephanie-Nana, Dorothy-Grandma"

I contacted Flowershopping.com in the 7-day range, & the guarantee was not offered at any time. Our delivery was on 5/2/24. My follow-up dates in contacting FlowerShopping.com below.
5/3/24 – email to CS with all details
5/4/24 – email to CS with additional details
5/9/24 – email to CS follow up

We had requested a full refund.

What Flowershopping.com offered & responded that this was unacceptable:
For the wrong card message and lack of blue we will be refunding 15% off of the product price, (approx. $21.86)
Small complimentary arrangement sent to a family member

Awful
June 8, 2024

Did not even deliver the flowers to my sister after charging extra for same day delivery. She's in the hospital facing amputation and I really wanted her to know I'm with her even though I live in a different State. Luckily the charge was still pending on my credit card the next day so I cancelled it with the credit card company and reported what I believe to be a scam. It's sad when a company treats people this way when flowers are sometimes attached to stressful situations. Please do not use their services unless you do not mind being disappointed.

BUYER BEWARE
May 13, 2024

BUYER BEWARE:
No delivery, no follow up, no call backs, no answers... Just took the money and incredibly hard to get a hold of them. I get it mothers day is a crazy holiday. But they totally dropped the ball. They have good google reviews but you can tell; there fake reviews. No stars. Do some research guys and make sure to shop local. Its worth another $10 or $20 to have the better customer service and to know that your helping out a community member.

Pathetic service
May 13, 2024

I ordered flowers for both of my daughters for mothers day on April 28. Orders were to be delivered on may 8th. One daughter received flowers on the 8th, my other daughter was a fiasco. I called on the 8th to get status and was to get a call back. Didn't happen. I call again on the 9th, again was suppose to get a call back, didn't happen. Called back on the 10th, same result. Called back on the 11th, and finally received a call back saying they couldn't get in contact with florist, and that an attempt would be made on 5-12-24. Finally my daughter received flowers late on the 12th. The flowers were basically just thrown in a vase, disgusting arrangement, smaller than what i ordered. I will never shop with them again, and recommend you don't either or you will be in for a disappointment.

I will NEVER use this business EVER again!
May 9, 2024

I will NEVER use this business EVER again. I ordered on Monday before 3pm EST to be delivered same day. Got an email (not a call) stating it would be Tuesday. I called and changed the address on Tuesday since she was leaving the hospital. I once again was told not a problem they will take care of it. It was never delivered. I then get an email stating they cannot be delivered on Wednesday stating I will need to pay more. Now we are 3 days in with no flowers delivered. I called and stated this was not my error and should not be charged extra. I asked to talk to a manager and all she said was to send an email which would do nothing. I then said fine, charge me the extra fee, just get it delivered and then was told they cannot guarantee delivery since the holiday coming up. Are you kidding me? I ordered them on Monday. I had no choice but to get a refund (which will take another 3 to 5 business days). Not to mention the customer service rep hung up on me once I said I will take a refund. I did get very upset with her, but you can understand why. When a company makes a mistake (even if it's only an additional $18) THEY should take care of it since it was their fault in the beginning. The customer should never have to pay more because of the company's incompetencies. It had been a complete nightmare. Never in my life have I ever had this many problems ordering flowers. In the future, if there are issues then they should always CALL not email. There is a reason we provide phone numbers. I truly hope nobody ever has to go through this again

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY-SCAM ARTISTS
April 17, 2024

The photo of this beautiful purple arrangement on their website had me sold and I paid way above what I normally would pay for flowers. My friend's birrhday was important to me and very disappoimted on what she received. Pink is her least favorite color. What I ordered and what she received are completely apposite. Had I known they would look like what she got, I would have ordered elsewhere. DO NOT BE MISLEAD BY THIS COMPANY. Take your money elsewhere. You will not receive what they show you are ordering. I am in disbelief, especially they would not refund my money. This is not what I ordered. Go elesewhere, not to this place.
