    I received flowers and a badly smashed vase

    I was thrilled when received a large box of flowers on by birthday from my family in New Zealand but was upset to find the glass vase shattered into many pieces . The flowers which looked ok did not last ( I have a regular delivery of flowers from a florist in London and the flowers frequently last 3 plus weeks !) I contacted my family and also emailed Serenata Flowers and after several email they have said they will not replace the vase but would offer discount on a future order !
    Disgusted of Guildford !

    Flowers

    I am absolutely disgusted with this order. It's the first time I've used your company and for £35 I'd expect a better product.
    I purchased this bouquet to give to my Mum on Mother's Day and judging by what she has received, she probably thinks her hate her.
    Most of the flowers are squashed or flattened. The leafs are shrivelled or dead. You don't say on your site that they get delivered in a box and need to be assembled upon delivery, the picture shows a bouquet in wrapping with a bow! You are misrepresenting your product and misleading your customers.
    Absolutely shocking to charge that much and just post a load of dead flowers in a box.
    I don't want re-delivery, I don't even want the first lot I ordered from you.

    Jonathan, I have had the same experience - They were compared with the website image different as chalk and cheese. Serenata not interested only told me to send a further photo in 3 or so days time. Feel very upset and annoyed that this Mothers day gift was sent with much love from my daughter

    Flowers - Cream Tea

    Long time user of Serenata Flowers, normally good service and high quality bouquets. I purchased the Cream Tea bouquet and was incredibly disappointed with the low quality bouquet that arrived, looking completely different from the image on the website and disappointing the recipient.
    Excellent Ordering and Delivery, but I can't bring myself to give them more than a 4 overall score as they don't deserve it.

    I voiced these concerns to the customer service team who told me that the correct number of stems were in the order and so they considered the service and quality acceptable, despite significant difference in the photos - which I would love to share with this review.

    Based on the subsequent poor customer service, I have closed my account and will not be using them again.

    'Floral Ratatouille'

    "Delivering Happiness" - but not necessarily on the right day. I chose Serenata (first) time as they had a 'local' supplier/partner in the delivery area for my mum's birthday, and also they were offering a 'next day' delivery.

    Got my order confirmation - date (and '8am - 8pm window') but they were not "dispatched" until the morning AFTER the booked date, and did not arrive until midday on. Raised a complaint with them for refund/compensation, but besides offering me their "heartfelt apologies", they offered nothing more than an excuse for why they miss the odd ("3%" apparently) delivery commitment.

    So, even though they offer a next day/specifc date delivery, buried in their T&Cs it says 'you should allow 24 hours after the intended delivery for the flowers to be delivered'. So that's good then.

    Not sure what the 'new normal' looks like, but personally I'm looking forward to companies no longer using 'the Covid excuse' for poor service.

    DO NOT Purchase flowers from serenata flowers! I’d give no stars if I could it would be more accurate! Most shocking quality, bouquet looks nothing like what’s advertised , only had half the flowers if that and the customer service is a joke! Please please do not waste your time and efforts with this company!!!!

    Nothing like the advert
    Thought it was a total rip off
    I queried if there were missing flowers
    Will not recommend to anyone ever

    Sweet Embrace

    If I could leave no stars I would!!
    Avoid at all costs.

    I ordered some flowers for my Great Aunt after her brother passed away. Firstly they said they have been delivered when they hadn't.

    When I contacted them they arranged another delivery. The flowers arrived dead, with no petals or flowers attached. They had been ripped to absolute bits.

    The driver handed them over knowing the state then ran off!!

    This is not what you want when you are sending flowers to a bereaved family. The stress and further upset it has caused is unacceptable!!

    Avoid Avoid Avoid

    Looked at the site 2 days previous and added a bouquet and truffles to the basket. Went back 2 days later and started a new order. No option to review the basket and I completed the purchase only to find I had been charged for the previous bouquet and truffles.

    Made the order at 20.54 on Tuesday to be delivered on Thursday. Emailed at 21.01 on the Tuesday to notify of the error and request refund and was emailed at 7.02am on Wednesday to say flowers were with courier and refund could not be issued.

    Customer service is appalling. No attempt to rectify the situation. Spend your money elsewhere folks, this company definitely don't deserve your hard earned money.

    £50 Amber Vixen

    Ordered £50 flowers and a £10 vase, they delivered the flowers which weren't in the best condition and forgot to send the Vase meaning the flowers got wasted anyway. Spoke to support who said they can't send the vase out seperately so would refund me the cost of the vase for the inconvenience (even though it wasn't delivered) - There support team has been terrible, they haven't acknowledged any of the issues I raised and have simply said they can't help me.

    I would not shop here again or recommend it to anyone else, there are plenty of other places that do it better and have a much better response to issues.

    Flowers

    It's unfortunate that I write this review, as I previously had good service. However, I ordered flowers on Thursday, for delivery on Saturday. No delivery was attempted (no calling card left), meaning the flowers would be delivered on Monday. Despite contacting the company over the weekend to ask for fresh flowers to be delivered on Monday as I knew they were likely to be dead, they ignored my request. As expected, the flowers arrived. The box looked like it had been kicked down the road and the flowers and foliage were dead. After several emails later, it was agreed that a further bouquet would be sent, delivered today (Wednesday). No email was sent to say they had been delivered, as its normal practice having used them before. The box was again battered and half of the flowers and foliage dead. Whilst the customer services department offered me a 20% discount on my next order, a cheek to say the least, I would have expected better customer service given the current economic climate and social media influence on company reputation. It's everything ! I won't be using them again.

    Most expensive set of flowers and supreme choloate

    I have ordered the most expensive set of lilies and rose to celebrate coming Sunday (International Mother Day) with a surpreme package of chocolate. The flowers were delivered earlier today but to our disappointment, the flowers are NOT fresh enough and the edge of all large rose flowers faded already with small roses withered and little hope to blossom. All the lilies are just budding stage (totally different from the picture they advertise in their web site and the size of bundle of flowers are smaller too. I have requested either an exchange tmr or refund but in vain. The only reply kept from their customer team is just repeatedly stating their products are up to standard and refused any exchange or refund... Just ask me to wait for 5 more days..... Will 5 more days be able to make the faded and withered flowers blossom again!?

    This is one of the worst experience I have in placing flowers with poor response.

    Golden Wedding flowers

    Hubby ordered flowers £50+ for our golden wedding anniversary..when they had not arrived by 5pm he told me about the order and emailed serenata. Flowers arrived at 6pm..we were so disappointed..three roses, a lily three little sprays of white flowers and two tiny sprays of gypsophlia..the rest greenery! Company said it was Hubby s fault on delivery..will never recommend them..we had fabulous flowers arriving in the post from other companies..serenata are a rip off and now I can't believe how many bad reviews they've got but am not surprised!

    Can't deliver on the day of the occasion, still blaming Covid 12 months later. Customer service appalling, cannot provide updates just excuses.


    Extremely disappointed and distressed. Yesterday I tried to navigate 'Serenata's' inefficient web-site to order flowers for a funeral next week - took two attempts. I received a message today - WITHOUT a confirmation of my order details attached - stating the flowers I'd ordered for next week would be delivered today!! I KNOW I requested next week for delivery - Mon 12th April, why would I order flowers for a funeral to be delivered a week early?! Unable to contact 'Senata' by telephone, 'Cold' Email contact only from 'Senata' who are not taking responsibility for inept web-site. Not only have I wasted £40 but unnecessary distress has been caused to a grieving family. I wouldn't touch this firm with a barge-pole!
    I intend to send my complaint in writing to 'Serenat'a' managing director, Martin Johansson.

    Ordered a £50 bouquet, recipient sent me a pic and I was so embarrassed. You could have spent £10 in a supermarket and got a better bunch. Customer service fobbed me off. Do not use this company!

    Flowers, teddy, card, vase

    I am so disappointed about customer service. Ordered flowers with vase, toy and a card, vase came smashed. Contacted straight away. This is what I got for reply from Ana - ".... I will personally raise this with our floral team to ensure that more care is taken in the future.... I have issued a refund for the price of the vase."
    Really? Is this business working only first day, they don't know how it should be packed? Is this a good customer service to give me a refund when you ruined my surprise for someone? Shame on you. Will never buy from you again, will never recommend you to anyone.

    Flowers

    I ordered flowers to be delivered to my friends in Durham, GB, to celebrate their wedding, on the date and specific time guaranteed by the Serenata website. I paid a ridiculous amount of money for it, including the specific delivery window. I never received the notification of delivery made, so I tracked the order and discovered it was still being prepared 5 hours later. That wasn't acceptable, as my friends weren't going to be at that address later. I filled a complaint form on the site and got bombarded with compulsive emails next morning (time zone difference) making apologies and excuses but refusing to cancel the order and refund for the now-useless flowers. They just wouldn't stop with the emails. It got ridiculous when they proudly shoved their TOS at me, explaining their liability and lack thereof, and it became clear that not only they don't know the meaning of the word "guarantee," they also don't know the meaning of the word "liability" (vs. "refund"). I don't recommend dealing with them at all.
