Unacceptable service form Bloomable

Absolutely the worst services ever. I placed an order 3 days before my wedding anniversary, requesting that the Boquet I ordered for my wedding anniversary day be delivered in the morning. 3days later and It is 15:18 on the my wedding annivesary day and no flowers. Nowhere on thewebsite did Bloomable indicate that they use 3rd party florists to make up and deliver the flowers. If I knew that I would have directly gone to a florist ner me, but I needed a service to deliver the flowers as a gift, which never happend and is now a major fight. I was called by a different florist whom I had no connection with, trying to establish who I am and and where I live. I sent an email to a Natassja to confirm the delivery, Natassja simply responded the that the delivery will be done between 8-5. This is not what I requested and why I ordered 3 days before the time! You have effectively ruined the start of my anniversary day and made me look like a incomptetent person. I could not even gift my wife a bunch of flowers on our first wedding annivessary! I am furios! This is absolutely pathetic and unacceptable. I am instructing Bloomable as a unsatisfied client who enjoyed no service from Bloomable a full refund and a cancellation of my order. I will go on social media and do what I need to do to get you to refund me my money.

Hi Wynand, I am truly sorry that your experience felt anything less than perfect, especially on such an important occasion. 

I’ve looked into your order, and while we always do our best to accommodate special requests like morning deliveries, we unfortunately did not receive a request for a specific delivery time with your order. Our delivery window runs from 9am–5pm so we try our best to deliver within this timeframe, and I can confirm that your gift was delivered just before 4pm on the day.

Bloomable operates as an online marketplace, partnering with trusted local florists across South Africa. This allows us to ensure fresh, hand-crafted arrangements are delivered daily, but it also means a florist may reach out directly to coordinate delivery details where needed. This is to ensure your recipient is always available when the driver arrives. 

That said, I am genuinely sorry for the frustration and the impact this had on your anniversary.
