    I love this whole saga! its a right carry-on!

    I cancelled my order after being charged £23.50, they credited the £23.50 back to my account and guess what ! my flowers turned up today as well, hilarious! ahah

    I wouldnt have paid £20 for them mind you, would have thought about paying the fiver too, not the best bunch of flowers but can't grumble if they were free I suppose.

    No flowers turned up despite them sending me an email promising to deliver them in time for Mother's Day! I paid by debit card and have been charged the full amount, also when I went to track the order there were no details! Not happy! :mad:

    I cancelled mine after being charged the full £23.50, the amount was refunded back to my card a few days later... yet today, as some other people have had... the flowers turned up. I would have been embarassed to have given my mum them on their own so was a good job I had bought something else. They were definately not worth the amount but being free I'm not complaining :-) Just hope they dont try and charge for them... tho i suppose if they can see its been cancelled, they wouldnt have a leg to stand on if they tried charging now?! :confused:

    I hadn't got mum anything else and was REALLY embarassed giving them to her especially seeing the bunch she got off my sister worth £5 less but 4 x bigger from the florist!

    They were so small my 2 yr old managed to carry them to nanny, at least that made it less embarassing as nanny was all cooey over my dd carrying them lol

    I too cancelled my order as I placed two orders in different names. My mother in law received them today so I couldnt exactly say dont sign for them. I have checked my account and the money has been refunded. I just hope that they do not end up taking the money back out as I really cant afford to pay £23.50 for flowers and by the sounds of things they dont seem that great although I havent seen them for myself. Wot a carry on this has turned out to be eh.

    To all that had cancelled and still received the flowers, congrats on the freebie. Once they have been cancelled they will not be able to charge for them.

    Great freebie and silly mistake on their part :rotfl::j:T
