This is for a Just For You Flowers/1800 Flowers store in Los Angeles, CA. They called three times within twenty minutes starting at 8:00am ET---their time 5:00!. I called back to see who kept calling me and hung up when the message came on about placing an order. They must have seen my number on Called ID because they called me right back saying that they're ready to take my order. When I explained to the man that his company kept calling me, he starting giving me a sales pitch so I hung up. I'm not sure if they're a real florist or just a floral exchange company that makes huge profits just by receiving orders and passing them on to real florists. Considering the times of the calls, it seems likely.
I received a call shortly after placing an order online at justflowers.com
I didn't answer the first time they called but they called back with in 5 minutes so I answered. He didn't introduce himself he just said "you order flowers?" He was asking me for the confirmation # and I told him that if this is legit then he would have that info. He had my name and the name that the flowers were going to. He asked if I was sure the order went through (he wanted my credit card # again) Yeah right... I am not giving that out over the phone to some jacka$$ with not so great English not telling me who he is... hahaha
I hung up and called the customer service # for justflowers.com and she had no record of my order and told me that I should call him back and get his name and phone number. Really??? Youthink a place like that is going to give you info. Not likely
Seems VERY fishy and a scam.
I cancelled that credit card and hope to never hear from them and will never use justflowers.com ever again and I hope this post helps someone else to choose a better flower place.
Urge all of you consumers NOT to FTD either! They charges 15.00 service fee addition when you place your order with them, & when they wire your order to a REAL florist, they take $2.75 processing fee out from the florist on top of 27% commission! Local business people work hard for nothing!!! or your order's value may not 100% fulfilled!!! Call real florist directly!
