I used to go shopping at Filed Of Flowers in Davie store,FL. Not anymore after my last order and custom service experience.\r
\r
I ordered a tropical arrangement for my Mom’s birthday. She loves birds of paradise and also all tropicals last longer.\r
\r
I had ordered the same arrangement some time ago for a friend of mine and at that time for $60 it was a real beauty -birds of paradise, gingers, orchids, asian lilies, lots of greens.\r
\r
This time I topped additional $15, hoping that for the price of $75 I’ll get more wonderful creation.\r
\r
What was my surprise when I was presented with an arrangement where the birds of paradise (which should be the center piece) were absolutely missing.\r
\r
There were just three gingers, two anthuriums, some orchids and orange lilies.\r
\r
I asked the manager how it comes that I’m given not the desired and less flowers for more money and he explained to me that the store run out of birds of paradise and also the prices went up and so on.\r
\r
Nobody from the store even bother to give a call when the order can not be fulfilled as desired.\r
\r
I had to take the flowers, my Mom was waiting me.\r
\r
In a week later the bouquet is gone. Dead. It shows me that old flower cuts were used on a top of the overcharge.\r
\r
I drove back to the store, showed the arrangement to another manager, showed pictures of both tropical arrangements for comparison but I was told exactly the same words like the first time. \r
\r
I think the store experience the same problems as many other businesses. But is it the right way to save and make money? Ripping off the customer and leaving bitter, unsatisfactory feeling.\r
\r
I’m definitely very disappointed and I doubt I’ll go back there again.\r
