I ordered flowers to be delivered in Perth, and they did arrive on time. The store also agreed to refund the extra vase I inadvertently ordered at the time. However when I also complained about the size and quality of the blooms delivered (after paying extra for a "super sized" bunch) I was told what was delivered was super sized and I can only have a store credit. This is useless to me as I don't wish to buy such poor quality and expensive flowers from them again. I've posted the images below, so you be the judge.

I sent flowers to my son and his wife on the birth of their first child. The flowers were nothing like the image shown on the website. Not only that but several were damaged and one completely dead. I purchased a vase to complement the arrangement. The vase was huge and dwarfed the horrible flowers. My son when he first saw the flowers could not believe that they were the ones that we had sent. Bloomex resent the flowers to the parent's home. These were as described. No point in receiving replacement flowers 6 days after the event. Get it right first time. Unfortunately I had not checked reviews before placing my order. Also it is not an Australian company and my order for Brisbane delivery was sent from Sydney.!!! You get what you pay for. I'll be returning to Interflora in future.

I live in the UK and wanted to send some flowers to my daughter-in-law in Melbourne for a special birthday. I placed the order on 9 March for delivery on 12 March, thinking this was sufficient notice. I thought the flowers were reasonably priced but thought the delivery charge was slightly excessive, and this was for next day delivery even though it was 3 days hence. (there was no other alternative delivery charge). I duly received email confirmation of the order with said delivery date of 12 March.
We skyped the family on 13 March to find out the flowers had not arrived. 2 days later they had still not turned up, so my son rang the company and, as with previous reviewers, found the call centre unhelpful and noisy and bad attitude. My son was told a complimentary bunch of flowers would be delivered by way of an apology, but they never materialised.
I emailed Bloomex to see what was happening, expressing my disgust at the service, and didn't even have the courtesy of a reply. I then received an email from them outlining a new delivery date and the flowers duly turned up on 17 March - nearly a week late. The oasis was completely dry so they had obviously been left somewhere and the delivery note had the original delivery date on it - 12 March.
Like previous reviewers, I wish I had read some of them before placing an order. I will certainly never ever use this company again and my son has advised me to send my complaint to the Australian trading standards.

Disappointed in flower description and customer service
I ordered online. Delivery was not available for same day delivery. This was advised by email and not by a telephone call. The delivery was made following afternoon after I had been hung up on twice from customer service and two online chat helpers did not make any comments to my questions.
I ordered Scrumptious Blossoms which is described as a mixture of delightful blossoms including daisies and roses with greenery. There is not one rose in the arrangement. I do understand that things do not always come exact as a photo but this was nothing like what I thought I paid for. The arrangement was all purple daisies with 4 white daisies and two or three yellow daisies or something else. I am not happy with the service or the arrangement that I have paid $34.95 for. At least they came in the vase I ordered and the card. Vase is lovely, thanks.
I placed an order for flowers for a funeral I was not able to attend 2 days in advance. There was then an avalanche of emails about the status of the order-one of these said the order had been delivered a day early. I contacted Bloomex and they said everything was fine the order would proceed at the allotted time and place. A day after the funeral I was contacted to say that the flowers were not delivered on time, they were a day late and dead and would I like to have them resent-not very helpful when the funeral was the day before.
I was given a store credit of the original amount, nothing for the inconvenience and embarrassment of not having the flowers at the funeral-very poor customer service!!
Two orders in one week, both not delivered when promised, even though I paid for same day delivery. customer service not even bothered to reply to my emails.
I ordered flowers on a Thursday, and paid extra for next day delivery. It's now Monday and the flowers have still not been delivered. After several failed attempts to contact customer service, when I finally talked to someone they reluctantly promised me my flowers would be delivered today. You would be shocked to know they still haven't arrived. This is an absolute scam and upsetting considering I order a lot of flowers and was hoping to find a good company to do regular orders through. Will be contacting my bank and possibly fair trade if a refund will not be given.
