I should complain but never think to. I ordered a pretty expensive large arrangement for my friend when she had her baby in the hospital and when I got there to visit her, the arrangement was tiny, no idea how there could be two sizes smaller than the 'large' I ordered, and it was missing lilies and roses from the photo... hmm..<br /> do these places just think you're not going to see the end result? I'm glad you called, I should've </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463668 Mon, 24 Dec 2012 02:22:41 +0000 Ash 463668@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: wow! what a huge difference in quality! glad they're making it better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463549 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 23:37:30 +0000 Smurfette 463549@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would have called too. Glad that they are sending her some fresh roses for when she gets back. I am sure she loved the gesture regardless. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463460 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 21:53:08 +0000 boiledpnut 463460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: I'd definitely say that's a reasonable outcome! Fingers crossed for fresh flowers. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463459 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 21:52:22 +0000 oliviaoblivia 463459@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@boiledpnut: sure did.</p> <p>So they are sending two dozen roses for the day she gets back and refunding the original order. Not a bad outcome. Hopefully the new roses aren't dead when they get there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463435 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 21:32:23 +0000 boiledpnut 463435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did you order the upgraded bouquet (the most expensive option)? That's the one they always show in pictures. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463429 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 21:20:50 +0000 Turd Ferguson 463429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, I'd call. </p> <p>Carnations&lt;roses. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463428 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 21:19:40 +0000 erwoo 463428@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would call. Omg, it's not even close to what you ordered. They sent a cheap bouquet. Sorry you had to experience that! On the upside, I'm sure your gma liked it anyway. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463385 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 20:31:52 +0000 birdofafeather 463385@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: I'd still have those delivered and redeliver after she got back as well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463377 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 20:25:58 +0000 loveisstrange 463377@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Um, I think the arrangement they sent is a less expensive one than the one you ordered, so I'd definitely call! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463353 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 20:13:16 +0000 oliviaoblivia 463353@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I called and they can't get a replacement order there until Thursday! She leaves for a cruise on Thursday. I guess I can have them delivered for when she gets back, but that kind of misses the point of ordering flowers for Christmas. :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463350 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 20:12:55 +0000 Sweet T 463350@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would call and complain!! From the looks of it, your bouquet isn't even full. I would be really annoyed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463349 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 20:11:57 +0000 Mrs. Blue 463349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH sent me flowers once from a big website like that and they were terrible when they came in. I called and told them that the flowers were wilting, etc., and they said they would replace my order or give me a voucher for the cost of the bouquet. I think you should call and give them a chance to fix it. I'm sure your grandma loves them and the thought regardless! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463345 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 20:10:05 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 463345@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes I would definitely call! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463343 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 20:07:45 +0000 Mrs. Bee 463343@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yes i would. every florist has roses! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463341 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 20:06:55 +0000 autumnlove 463341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would definitely call and get a new bouquet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463336 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 19:58:23 +0000 Rubies 463336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely call and complain! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463329 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 19:43:16 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 463329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's not even a full bouquet! (Though I'm sure she's thrilled that you thought of her and thinks it's spectacular). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463328 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 19:42:38 +0000 oliviaoblivia 463328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah the roses were D.O.A.

I would call and complain. If anything they'll give you a refund or discount! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463323 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 19:38:15 +0000 Cupcake 463323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would absolutely call!

I don't see any roses in the one they delivered... looks like you were ripped off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463320 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 19:36:28 +0000 oliviaoblivia 463320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Arden: thanks I fixed the post! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463317 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 19:35:01 +0000 Arden 463317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can't see the pics. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/botched-flower-orderwould-you-be-pissed#post-463313 Sun, 23 Dec 2012 19:32:41 +0000 oliviaoblivia 463313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My grandmother just moved into an old age community. It's her first time ever living alone as my grandfather passed away in October. DH and I sent her flowers to bring a little sunshine into her new apartment. My sister is there now and sent me a photo of the bouquet. I'm horrified at what they sent.</p> <p>Would you call customer service, or should I let it go?</p> <p>The top pic is of what arrived and the bottom is what I ordered.</p> <p>[attach=1339/12/mfif04.450x600.flowers-sent.jpeg]</p> <p>[attach=1339/12/mfif05.300x350.flowers-ordered.jpeg] </p>
