Ordered flower delivery for my girlfriend on Thursday with a Groupon discount. Clearly said at the top "order by Friday 2/11 for V-Day delivery."
She works from home, was home all day today. They had my phone number, but didn't call me with any sort of question or explanation. I requested delivery confirmation from their website, and got nothing but a promise to email me. That was around 9:00am.
Thankfully my girlfriend is understanding, but I'm pretty pissed off.
You're a horrible boyfriend kill yourself.
What does the Foreign Trade Deficit have to do with your Valentines Day flower debacle? Pull yourself together kid and just take her out for some nice grub tonight.
Be a man.....we don't fall for that Hallmark stuff. Treat her right and there are no problems.
What you get for going cheap with the Groupon discount. Live and learn.
My business partner did the Groupon thing and the EXACT same thing happened to him. FTD really f***ed it up big time. Word on the street is that they just raised the price too, so the whole $40 for $20 was worthless anyway.
Well if you have your "order confirmation #" call them up for a refund or an exchange.
Something like this happened to me 5 years ago. I ordered flowers and a bear, and only the flowers came. Called them up and the bear and extra flowers came 2 days later.
But serves you right for waiting last minute. Every guy knows you ALWAYS give them something for Valentine's Day even if they insist on getting nothing.
Only one thing to do. Take her to McDonald's and tell her she can have anything on the menu.
Let us know how that works.
The thing is, I don't have an issue with the fine print, or combining discounts, or any of that. But nothing was delivered! ("And I tell this truth to you ...")
I've emailed FTD and Groupon for a refund.
Update - my business partner got his money back but Groupon is giving him a hard time b/c FTD extended the offer.
IMHO, Groupon ought to eat the cost b/c they are definitely in the middle of a critical trial period with consumers right now. They DO NOT need a PR nightmare, especially given the recent VC funding.
At least you got f***ed on Valentines Day.
