| FlowersWhisper.com strives to provide
the best customer service available. It is our belief that as a real flower shop we
understand and appreciate the concerns of Internet shoppers regarding the security and
proper fulfillment of their orders. We have established this return/refund policy to
provide our customer with a complete understanding of how replacement orders or refunds
are processed: |
| 1) If any customer claims an
order was not delivered we ask that we are given at least 24-48 hours to contact the
filling florist to determine what occurred. In many cases delivery was attempted but
either the recipient was not home and/or no neighbors were available to accept the order.
We reserve the right to attempt a redelivery if this occurred. If a florist created an
arrangement and attempted a delivery then that florist should be given the opportunity to
complete the delivery. |
| 2) If it is determined that the
filling florist did not make the delivery attempt it is our policy to provide you with a
refund. We always ask that the filling florist provide an apology arrangement to the
recipient if it is determined that the filling florist was at fault regardless of the
circumstances. |
| 3) If an order is filled and
delivered to the recipient and there is a question of the quality of the arrangement then
the recipient should contact the florist who made the delivery. In almost every case the
filling florist will gladly replace the arrangement. To request a replacement either the
filling florist or FlowersWhisper.com must be contacted within 72 hours of the delivery. Bear
in mind that flowers are perishable. Proper care is required. It is the responsibility of
the recipient to follow any care instructions provided by the filling florist. No refunds or replacements will be made for any order should the recipient
or sender not notify the filling florist or FlowersWhisper.com within 7 days of the original
delivery date. A link to this page is provided with every order confirmation receipt
emailed to the sender when the order was made. A link to this page also exists on nearly
every page of FlowersWhisper.com. It is the responsibility of the sender to review all of the
information provided in the emailed receipt or on FlowersWhisper.com relating to refunds and/or
replacements. |
| 4) If an order is filled and it
is determined that inappropriate or unauthorized substitution has occurred, we reserve the
right to have the filling florist replace the arrangement. This may not be
limited to one attempt to resolve the problem. |
| 5) FlowersWhisper.com will refund any
purchases if the filling florist fails to provide a resolution to any problems that occur
during the preparation and/or delivery of the item. This will be done only
after all attempts have been exhausted to replace the order and
FlowersWhisper.com determines that the order can no longer be filled. |
| 6) FlowersWhisper.com reserves the
right to reject any order provided to us that we deem questionable or possibly fraudulent.
When an order is received by FlowersWhisper.com we review the entire order and periodically
compare the information provided to us with the bank of the person placing the order. If
we determine that fraudulent information is provided we will send an email to the sender
to inform them of the situation to determine if the information was provided in error. |
| 7) Should any customer place an
order through FlowersWhisper.com and then need to cancel the order, the cancellation must be
made prior to the delivery of the order. If the cancellation is received after the order
is delivered then no refund can be issued. Cancellations cannot be
accepted if a customer places an order but provides information that prevents direct
delivery such as in the case of a bad work or home address. The customer can obtain
new information so the order can then be properly delivered using correct
information. This is to protect the florist who fills the order and then attempts to
make a delivery. |
| 8) If you placed an order and
indicated "Yes - Substitutions Allowed" FlowersWhisper.com will attempt to fill the
order as closely as possible however if the container, flowers or other items that
comprise the order are unavailable then the order will be substituted with content equal
to the original value of the order. |
| 9) FlowersWhisper.com is not
responsible for any order where the recipient refuses to accept the item. FlowersWhisper.com
will not issue refunds to any customer where the recipient, for whatever reason, will not
accept the item or refuses delivery. |
| 10) FlowersWhisper.com is not liable
for customer errors that result in the over-ordering of a product.
Additionally, FlowersWhisper.com is not liable for perishable products that are
shipped by a third party vendor where the sender provided an inaccurate
address. During the checkout
process the customer is provided with a total of the order PRIOR to the order being
submitted. The customer is given the option to remove items or reduce the quantity
ordered. FlowersWhisper.com makes every effort to review orders where multiple quantities
of a same item are ordered but we do not guarantee, nor are we liable, for any order sent
out exactly as the customer ordered. If a customer orders more than one of any single item
but meant to send a lesser quantity and the ordered amount is sent to the recipient, no
refund can be offered since what was ordered is what will be delivered. |
| 11) When a customer allows
substitutions this means that the sender is allowing the filling florist to use those
flowers they have available to work with in trying to keep the arrangement as similar as
possible. This may mean that the recipient does not necessarily receive an
arrangement identical to what is pictured though every effort is made to do so. In cases
of specialty items, such as items in an FTD ceramic container, if no florist has the
arrangement then the order will be filled to the value spent using a different container
that may not be similar to the one pictured. |
| 12) Regarding international orders, once an order has been transmitted to the overseas office it cannot be canceled for any reason. If a sender provides incomplete or inaccurate information the sender is responsible for updating the information so the overseas florist can complete delivery of the order. |
