Bunches.co.uk delivered my 'Mothers Day' flowers yesterday!!!

Ok, ordered some flowers for my Mother. Took the standard delivery option which quotes 1-2 days delivery but does let me pick my delivery date so I picked the 21st (this Saturday) to be as close as possible to Mother's Day.

I accept it may get there a day early in 1 out of 10 orders or something but my Mother calls me yesterday (Thursday) to say they arrived etc. So means they must have posted them at least Wednesday FOR A SATURDAY DELIVERY!!!!

I called them to complain and just got some flannel, "blah blah should have picked the (£5) superior delivery option".

So a warning to all if you need something on the right date DON'T BANK ON BUNCHES.CO.UK as their delivery was too early and their response was useless.

Cheers.

  • I was going to order from them but read the very dodgy delivery terms, I went elsewhere straight away.

    Ive had good orders from them before without problems but went with teleflorist this time as bunches arent on Quidco yet. Teleflorist offers £7 and tracks straight away

    I've used Bunches loads of times and have never had a problem. Guess you were just unlucky...
    If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands

    Maybe so. However it was the brush off from the lady I spoke to that was also a problem.

    Exactly same thing happened to us & my MILS flowers arrived on Thursday instead of Saturday for mothers day. Have gone with teleflorist this time so hope arrives on time for my mums birthday.
