Earlier delivery on Mother's Day

All of our orders for our very special mothers have been sent out as soon as confirmed.
This is in response to our increased volume of orders and we wanted to make sure that our customers
receive their flowers.
Indeed, we all want to honour our Mothers on this special day.
As this is the busiest time of the year for Bloomex, we want to ensure that we can meet all of our customers expectations. So, your order may be delivered early.
The increased volume has forced us to proceed in this manner to ensure all of our mothers receive
their special gift from you.
Sincerely,
Bloomex Management

Return Policy


Bloomex is different from traditional neighbourhood retail florists.

Our business model is similar to Dell Computers. We accept orders over the Internet and by telephone at our head office in Ottawa. Flowers are designed by our professionally trained floral designers at our own production facilities, located in major metropolitan areas across Canada. This is why we ensure order accuracy of all our orders. Because of high volume of orders processed daily and direct buying from growers, our flowers are fresher. Our efficiency and low overhead allow us to sell them for less. The result is fresher flowers at a better price.

Phone orders are taken by people. Flowers are made by people. Deliveries are done by people.


Unfortunately people sometimes make mistakes. This is why we are honest about mistakes and how we ensure all our customers are 100% satisfied.

Bloomex guarantees your satisfaction, however, if you are not satisfied there are policies in place to accommodate you.

Due to the perishable nature of our products, we only accept complaints regarding quality and returns up to 7 days following the delivery date.


To receive 100% satisfaction in case:

Dissatisfied with the Quality of Flowers:

As our flowers come fresh from growers, they are always fresh and beautiful. If flowers you received are not up to your standards, please send a picture of the received arrangement to wecare@bloomex.ca with the order number. We will resend a new product free of charge if the product sent was not of good quality.

Product Received is Not the Product Ordered:


If you have received different flowers than ordered, you need to send a picture of the received arrangement to wecare@bloomex.ca with the order number. Our able customer service representatives will look at the picture and easily be able to identify the product, as each of our bouquets is unique. We will resend the correct product free of charge if the product sent was incorrect.

Incorrect Address:


We are not responsible for incorrect addresses. In the case where an incorrect delivery address is provided, we will charge additional delivery fee of $9.99 for re-delivery. Due to perishable nature of flowers, failure to provide correct address within 24 hours after our notification of the incorrect address will result in order cancellation or additional charge for the cost of flowers or fruits if you wish to proceed with delivery.
Note: Please verify the information you provide as it allows us to better serve you.


Order information change:

All the changes and updates to the order should be done within 1 hour of placing the order.

Please double check all the information in your order. $10 administration fee will apply for any changes and updates requested after this 1 hour period.

Late delivery:


Orders late for morning delivery will be refunded the difference between morning delivery and regular delivery.

Orders placed after cut off time will be delivered the next available day as described in our delivery policy



Note: We are not responsible for late deliveries caused by acts of God (weather conditions, storms, hurricanes, earth quakes, etc...) and no refunds will be issued for these reasons. The delivery will occur on the next possible delivery date.

Our production facilities are serving for same day delivery Greater Toronto, Ottawa, Greater Montreal, Calgary and Greater Vancouver.

Cancellation:


You may cancel the order any time. Please note that following cancellation fees will apply:
- $25 if cancelled 36 hours before delivery
- total cost of the flowers or fruits if cancelled 36 hours or less before delivery.


Substitutions:

Due to seasonal nature of flowers and order volume, we reserve the right to substitute with similar product of greater value. It is very unlikely since the vast majority of our orders are produced at our own production facility. For the year 2006, our substitution rate was 1.3%.

Following rules for substitution will apply:

Flowers
In arrangements of assorted flowers, the colors shown online will be used if at all possible, even if this means substituting other kinds of flowers of greater value.

For one-of-a-kind flower arrangements, such as all roses or all lilies, we will make every attempt to match the flower type, but may substitute with another color.
