This is when you find out how helpful your bank/credit card company is.

Best of luck to you.

My daughter bought flowers on there. She said once you proceed, you can’t cancel it. Much more expensive than advertised. Shipping kills you. Would not recommend it. Seems like a ripoff.

I figured ‘vanity’ and posted in chat was good enough...

I really want to know if anyone else had this happen as I was alerted to it by a friend.

I had this happen. I caught it the second month.

I called the credit card company and on the spot the
card support person called them and conferenced me in.
ThEasySaverRewards person asked if I had ordered
vitamins, I hadn’t. I really don’t know how they
got my cc number.

EasySaverRewards promised to refund and stop.

I got a call in a week from cc company to say the refund
had been credited to my account. They canceled that card
and mailed me a new one. The cc company was great.

for Valentines Day i ordered my wife two dozen red roses in a nice vase with chocolates and some sort of restaurant coupn from ProFlowers....they advertised it for $49.99...when they were done with all their charges it came to over $80 (tax, delivery charge, additional valetines day delivery charge)...i thought my wife would enjoy them and I’d score big points so what the heck- i ordered it...

i come home from the gym Valentines morning, asked my wife if she liked the flowers and she said, “yes- but can i tell you something?? next time get them from the A&P”...i said “WHAT???!!!”

upstairs in a cheap cardboard box are one dozen multi-colored roses, many of them half dead...i was furious and promptly called...they offered to bring a replacement- three days later!!!

i demanded a refund, which i got, and told them they could come back and pick up the “roses” they dropped off....i will never order from them again...

Your extended text says this:

“1. Go to www.floristexpress.net”

That is NOT ProFlowers.com. You were scammed.

I have had one experience with proflowers.com and it was just fine.

Maybe the admin moderator should change the thread title from proflowers to floristexpress.net?

I’ve ordered from them a number of times. No issues, just decent flowers. I think this illustrates the need to make sure you know what your doing when you order stuff online though. Gotta read the fine print!

Sean Hannity, Dennis Prager, Hugh Hewitt, and other conservative radio talk hosts promote ProFlowers. I’ve used ProFlowers half a dozen times with excellent results. However, I only order one delivery at a time, no subscriptions.
