I ordered my sister in law for her 40th birthday the two dozen long stemmed pink roses. She was absolutely over the moon with them. I often use this company as they have such great deals on roses all the time and what lady can resist getting roses

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.

Kind regards, Bloomex Australia
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 ordered flowers on the 13th of March for next day delivery. They were not delivered so I contacted them and was offered delivery ASAP and an upgrade I am still waiting for them to be delivered 4 days after the order. I have reported the company to the ACCC.
If I could give zero stars I would as they never arrived.

STILL NO DELIVERY OR REFUND. ABSOLUTLEY APPALLING. I DON'T KNOW HOW THEY'RE STILL OPERATING.

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.

Like every other person who has left a review here, I paid for flowers and also paid an extra $15.00 for next day delivery. After reading all these reviews, I decided to call Bloomex Australia to double check that my flowers would be delivered today as I had paid extra. They assured me the flowers would be delivered between 1-5pm today. The flowers were not delivered by 5:30pm, so we called Bloomex yet again and they were extremely unhelpful - told to check my email, which I had, and had not received anything from them. The line was also terrible - I assume the call centre isn't in Australia? Still have no clue where my flowers that I paid $55.00 for have gotten to.
I will be contacting the Australian Government Fair Trade to put in an official complaint as it seems that this is the only way we can get a refund.
I just wish I had read all these reviews BEFORE purchasing - DO NOT BUY FROM BLOOMEX!!

The flowers were eventually delivered 4 days late even though I had paid extra for next day delivery. The flowers and leaves in the bunch were dying by this stage and the bunch was TINY, definitely did not look like the supersize I had ordered. When I suggested the wrong flowers were delivered you insisted they were the correct ones and were supersize even though they looked absolutely nothing like the picture and completely ignored my request for a refund. I've contacted consumer protection of WA to receive the refund as it was clear after much back and forth with you that you weren't willing to listen or negotiate. I am extremely unhappy about paying 55 dollars for something I did not order to arrive 4 days late.
