Ordered birthday flowers March 2020, 3 days in advance from their site “local” ( a lie). Took my $$ in seconds. Charged to “internetLLC”. Day of delivery , I get the email unable to deliver. Same thing as many others here, “we will issue refund”. Nope never came, further inquiry stated “ nothing more we can do”.
Filed BBB complaint; 9 months later , nothing.

BAIT and SWITCH FLORIST……..Take you money and order but deliver nothing like what you ordered. Charge you for something you never get

Example: Order total of $112.00 what was delivered was $40 arrangement. BEWARE!!!! Read the amounts of complaints against them on the Better Business Bureau site. Explains it all.

My brother ordered flowers for a funeral, the florist was identified as the only Troys florist online that was able to make a delivery within a 24-hour period to get the flowers on time. When the occasion was over I was looking for the flowers that was ordered based on the invoice description my brother sent me and they were not at the funeral. I called Troy florist the next business day and was told I had to use the email response from the order, they do not do customer service via the phone. I was given a response within minutes stating a date and time of delivery as well as the name of the person who signed for the arrangement. Checking with the funeral home admin, I was told no one by the name has ever worked for the company nor was there any flower arrangements delivered on that particular date. I called back to Troy florist again and spoke to a person who refused to give me her name or allow me to speak to anyone else in the business such as a manager or higher position personnel as she refused again not to answer any questions only responding to go to the email on the from the order. Once again, I went to the email, told them the same information and the response was they were delivered same information but this time no name just same time of delivery and end of story. The company will not respond any more to any email I send now. They have charged my brother’s credit card. The second phone number identified as Americana Flowers with the matching address in New Jersey and email address of Troys florists, says leave a message and we’ll get back with you in the next five minutes no response there either. Stealing from people during such sensitive times as a funeral makes it hard to understand what type of people could do such a thing?

“BEWARE! RUN! DO NOT BELIEVE THEIR FALSE ADS ON SAME DAY DELIVERY & THEY ARE NOT LOCAL!”

2/7/20 ***

2/7/2020: Customers BEWARE! Here is a similar nightmare to what other unsuspecting customers have gone thru and if I could give them ZERO as a rating I would, but it’s not an option so I picked one star! I was out of town at a work conference for my mother’s birthday on 2/6. So, I Googled LOCAL florist in my mom’s EXACT ZIP CODE. Troy’s Florist popped up as GUARANTEED SAME DELIVERY DAY to LOCAL 33625 Tampa FL area. TROY IS IN NEW JERSEY NOT TAMPA, FLORIDA! THEIR AD IS DEFINITELY MISREPRESENTING THEIR LOCAL PRESENCE! This is what happened before I discovered they lied about their location and delivery promises:

So, I ordered the biggest flowers, balloons, the whole nine yards. I wanted to surprise mom. Instead, I was shocked! Here are the exact steps: I ordered online at 8am. On a work break, I called Troy Florist by 9:30 AM, just to confirm they got my on-line order. The lady that answered said, yes, is your mom…(name). Yes, we have it and it will be delivered between 11am-6pm TODAY (2/6). She said I’d get a confirmation email that the flowers were delivered by day’s end. I was satisfied and returned to work. I did not get home until after 6pm. I got home only to read this email: WHICH BY THE WAY WAS SENT TO ME NOT EVEN 2 HOURS AFTER THEY TOLD ME MOM’S FLOWERS WERE BEING DELIVERED!

You had a delivery going out to Tampa for today. We are so sorry but we would not be able to deliver out to that area for today. We could have it delivered for you tomorrow and take good care of it for you. Please reply to this email as soon as possible to let us know how you would like to proceed. We cannot move forward without a response from you.

Thank you.

OMG! By now it was TOO LATE! There were NO flower shops opened at this time to fix this (meaning I’d cancel and have them issue me a refund)! I was so sad, hurt, and angry- disappointed at their FALSE ADVERTISING about SAME DAY LOCAL DELIVERY that I replied: CANCEL MY ORDER & REFUND MY MONEY ASAP so I can now go and buy mother another gift because you RUINED my surprise & my mother’s birthday!!!! These folks have no integrity, no customer service, NOTHING! I tried calling and the young girl that answered blew my off-she did NOT want to hear my plight! Now, I am waiting for a refund! RUN- do not order from this company, ever! They misrepresented themselves!!! Never again!

After placing an online order for flowers, Troys Florist emailed me to say the designer in my area had requested an additional $25. Troys said they would process a refund and asked how I wanted to proceed. I responded "please refund."

I ordered a deluxe peace lily using my daughters New Jersey zip code and was charged $74.88. Troy’s Florist canceled my order by emailed the next day saying they were over booked and could not fill my order, but would refund my money in 2-5 business days.

The order was still processed on my account 3 days after they sent me the cancellation. I contacted them 8 day’s later saying I still hadn’t received my refund. Troy’s Florist replied they had record of my refund and there was nothing more they could do. After eighteen days they still haven’t responded to my emails. They did not deliver the peace lily and $74.88 has not been refunded to my bank account.

This business is a fraud, and a scam. Their companies advertisement/web site should be banned, blocked and removed from the service, if not they’ll just keep ripping people off. Don’t be tricked by their scam. Spread the word to as many as you can.

This business claims to be local. I was ordering flowers for a service in IL- the internet shows they are in NJ. Also- the scam is they take your order, charge your card, then claim they are not able to fulfill the order. They state you will receive a full refund. When I did not receive a refund after 30 days, I contacted them asking for a receipt for the refund. They send the original email back to me stating I have received the refund in full and there is nothing further they can do. Do not order from this site!

Type of a scam Online Purchase

I did a google search looking for a local florist where my parents live. Troysflorist came up, this is the first step of the deception as they are not a local florist at all. I ordered a floral arrangement via their website for $54.99 along with a balloon $4.99, shipping and service fee of $14.99 and sales tax of $5.25 Total order cost: $80.22. On the day the flowers were to be delivered I received this email.

Hello, unfortunately, we will not be able to service your order and we have placed it for a refund.

The local florist we work with rejected the order because they had an overflow of business for the busy Holiday and there is nothing further we can do other than to refund 100% of the purchase.

I have put you in for a full refund. Please allow 2-5 business for this to appear in your account.

I contacted them 2 weeks later stating I had not received the refund and they responded that I was refunded the full amount and that it could take 5-7 business days and there is nothing else they could do for me. I responded that their original email said 2-5 business days it had already been 8 "business days" and I had not received a refund. I asked when it was refunded and wanted a specific date. They have failed to respond. I called my credit card company to report it and the credit card company replaced the funds.

Judging from the mass of complaints with this company, all of which I came across too late, I am horrified they are still in business. It’s going on 6 years now! Complaints to the ScamPulse.com have been coming in since 2015 and they have an F rating. This is a major Nation wide scam and needs to be shut down. Every single day they steal thousands of dollars from people who think they are ordering from a local florist and then either don’t deliver at all or send some ridiculous arrangement that isn’t even close to what is ordered, it’s almost like it’s on purpose for a joke. Those who never had arrangements sent at all don’t get refunds. It’s documented in complaint after complaint. It’s shocking how many people have fallen victim. There must be an agency that deals with this kind of fraud. Valentine’s Day is less than a month away and they are continuing to scam people unchecked. My order was just over $80, most are at least 60 and up. That adds up to 10’s of thousands when you start adding up the amount of people scammed.

I called from out of state (NM) to order flowers to be delivered to someone in Texas. Troy’s Florist website has pictures from a real local florist that I thought I recognized. The flowers were supposed to be delivered the next day. The next day, I received an email that the flowers could not be delivered, however, my bank card had already been charged. Suspicious that something was awry, I searched online to discover numerous other scam alerts on the ScamPulse.com and on the internet about Troy’s Florist. I attempted to contact them, but they did not answer the phone. I also emailed they and they responded they would refund my account but to allow up to 5 business days. Apparently – after reading other complaints – this is their typical response. Now concerned they have my bank card information, I had to cancel my bank card. I immediately contacted my bank, and HOPE I have stopped the $85+ charge, but will not be sure until the the next business day, as today is a holiday and weekend.

I ordered flowers from troysflorist.com on August 19. The arrangement was to be delivered on the same day. After waiting two days without receiving delivery I called their 800 # and asked about the whereabouts of the order. I was told the order would not be processed and I would be given a refund on August 21. I did not receive an email confirming the credit. I phoned them again on August 23 and was told the refund was still in process. After waiting over a week for the refund, I decided to do my own research on Trois florist. It turns out they have many bad reviews regarding the same experiences I had. Many victims have not received a refund. I still do not have a refund. This company seems like a scam. They also go by the name Paxton‘s flowers As that is the name on my bank statement.

May 11th ordered online from this company to deliver flowers to my Mother for Mothers Day. Well, they never delivered and when I called they gave me some line about the flower company needing more money in order to deliver the flowers that I purchased. I knew that they had my phone number and if they would have called to tell me this- I probably would have sent more money(as dumb as it sounds) but they never did. They said do you have the order # and yes I did, I keep everything- so she puts me on hold and comes back in a few minutes (thick accent) and told me that I would receive an email stating that my refund to my credit card would take 2-4 business days. I called back a week later and they said it may take longer. Still nothing and I had to contact my bank to depute these charges. I should have read all of the negative reviews to begin with- NO one ever gets their flowers delivered!! They also never refund the money. This company should be banned from advertising and they should be sued and put in jail!!

called to place an order b/c their website would not take my info – ordered a LIVE Plant, Violet Basket with Ribbon and Butterflies – gave them my credit card info – delivery made by not even close to what I ordered – they sent crappy cut flowers that looked like leftovers from other arrangements – called and told I need a receipt and found out they charged me $27 extra – told them that I wanted them to deliver the correct product and pick up the product they delivered. They told me I had to contact customer service via email which I did – they admitted the mistake and rather then give me what I ordered, they wanted to give me a discount. I refused the discount and told them to deliver what I ordered or give me a refund. I also asked again for my invoice. After several emails, I did not get my invoice and they did not respond. Come to find out they are a scam with a far reaching network. It’s Troy Florist, credit card was billed as Logans Florist. Called them for a receipt. The gal stayed on the phone until I received the email. It was not a receipt but a typed email with my order info. At the bottom of the email, the company name was AMERICANA FLORWES (which is supposed to be flowers) I brought this to her attention and she said it was a typo. I asked her for a paper copy and she said, this is how they gives receipts. My Bank has now put a STOP PAYMENT on this charge.

I placed an order online through Troy’s Florist to be delivered 3 days later. The floral bouquet was NEVER delivered, and I was never contacted that there was an issue about delivery. When I called the company, they indicated that I should have been contacted and would need to pay more money for "premium" flowers that the local florist carried. I told them to use fewer flowers or that they should use the premium flowers since they are now 2 days late delivering the bouquet. They refused and said that all they would do is refund my money. I’m pretty sure that refund will not come through and have contacted my credit card company to dispute the charge. They would not let me speak to a manager and said she would say the same thing anyway. They also would not give me their address so that I could write a letter to let them know how frustrated I was. This company should not be in business–they do not provide the product, they do not contact you about an apparent issue, they mention the need to pay more money to get what you originally ordered, and all they do is "refund" your money (if that ever happens).

Ordered flowers for my Mother for Mothers Day. The website said they were local. Flowers were never delivered and I subsequently found out that they are not local, they are located in New Brunswick NJ. They never delivered flowers and have yet to refund my credit card. I was told via email that I would receive the refund on my credit card in 2 to 4 business days. I emailed them again yesterday as it had been 10 business days with no refund on my credit card. They said they would refund it and it would take 2 to 4 more business days. After looking at the complaints on Yelp and BBB. I suspect if I get a refund it will be due to American Expresses refund rather than Troy’s florist’s refund. They are a scam.

Went online and looked up florist in Portland, TX. Troy’s Florist came up. I ordered flowers for my Mom for Mother’s Day on 5/8/19. Received email confirmation saying they would be delivered that day. By Saturday, no flowers had arrived and no confirmation that they were delivered.

I have tried calling their number 866-856-2315 and immediately get put on hold and am on hold for 5 min before the line goes dead. I tried that maybe 10 times and get the same result on many different days. Then I saw online many complaints about that company. When doing a search for florists in Portland TX, why did it come up with Brunswick, NJ, 1,844 miles away? The company setup their website to be first in line when florist was searched and they scammed people. Then after 2 days they changed their website, because if you search florists in Portland, TX now they don’t come up.

I had to contact my bank and tell them it was fraud (which it was) and they are getting the charge reversed. This is a horrible way to scam people. If I lived near there I would choke somebody, especially the lady that picks up the phone and says "hold". Instead of spending all the time to scam people, why don’t they go and get a real job and contribute to society.

I purchased a large bouquet of flowers for my mom for Mother’s Day. I was guaranteed delivery on Friday, May 10th. They did not arrive until Tuesday, May 14th. My mom then sent me a picture of the bouquet when they arrived because I was concerned when they didn’t arrive at the scheduled time. The bouquet was half the size of the bouquet I ordered. When I asked to be refunded for the amount I over paid and for shipping to be compensated, customer service was very difficult. When I asked to speak with a manager, they tried to pretend like they were the manager. I asked to speak with someone else with proof of their role in the company and got passed around several times between customer service agents. Then I was informed that if I spoke with manager, I would be "put on hold for awhile and then hung up on." Needless to say, I am not happy. I contacted my bank to report fraud and get the charges reversed. I will be writing reviews anywhere possible to prevent anyone else from falling victim, and I will be contacting the ScamPulse.com.

Ordered floral arrangements for my sister’s memorial service. Confirmed that they delivered to Lake Geneva, WI. (Their website that I pulled up makes the consumer think that it a local florist). Floral arrangemnts were never delivered. I called and notified Troy’s Florist and they didn’t give me a reason why they didn’t deliver them and ask if I wanted them sent somewhere else. I told them no thank you, just the refund is fine. They sent me an email saying they processed the refund. I never received the refund. I called them again and explained everything all over and they said they had an issue with the computers and would reprocess. Waited 6 biz days and never recd refund. I called a third time, was given the run around and finally another person got on the phone (they wouldn’t give their names) and said it has to be reprocessed and sent me a "receipt" via email of the refund they processed. Waited another 6 days and no refund. Called for the 4th time and no apologies, just the same thing, we have to reprocess. I asked for a manager and the rep said that there’s one there but she’s not in the room. I asked for the manager at that time and then she said she will send me the receipt. I told her I have the receipt but no refund. She said I’d need to take it up with my bank. I told her ok, I’ll be taking action against you and hung up. I called my bank and opened a claim. I put a claim against Troys Florist with the ScamPulse.com and found they are actually physically located in New Jersey and use businesses in the local areas.

I googled searched a local florist for my mom’s area to order her flowers on Mother’s day. I found Troy’s Florist online that said they are in Littleton, NC. They even have a customized notice they will only be delivering emergencies to Littleton, NC. Later received an email stating it would be an additional $45 due to the hard to reach area. I did not think anything of it because she really is hard to reach. I asked to cancel the order and they said they will cover the extra cost. I was thinking they were a local store and that is normal for mom and pop shops…customer service. Well now the day after Mother’s day the flowers were never delivered and I was not given an email or phone call.

I contacted other legitimate local florists in Atlantic Beach with the real 904 area code and they said no such business exists.

They answer the phone "flower shop" and I believe they are operating their scam under several erroneous website names that don’t actually have physical locations and don’t actually deliver the flowers ordered.

Ordered funeral flowers and they were not delivered. Paid over $94, no refund, just excuses. I have all the emails and phone calls logged. They simply say they cannot refund the money without "talking to the delivery driver" (and act as though they just missed him) then it became they need to "talk to the location" and they could not explain what that meant, but apparently "the location" is closed in the morning, all day, and evening…. because they kept saying they were "closed at the time". I will try to get the $94 back from a Visa chargeback, but this must stop. When I type their name online I found that they operate with MANY NAMES and different website addresses, some of the others include "Rudy’s Florist and Gift Shop" and "Americana Flowers" and American Roses. THERE ARE HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF CLAIMS against this company online but they are still operating. How do we stop them? www.troysflorist.com They are a complete scam. Their address is apparently not even their actual location according to neighbors of that address. I was told by the employee that she only knows one person in charge names "Clay Matthews" but he does not exist anywhere that I can find, so that must be fake. If he is a real person, then I will find him eventually. The employees are so exhausted with the lies, I am sure they only stay on for a few weeks and then quite. One employee said something "between the lines" but probably is being recorded so she can not tell me the truth, but I got still got her "message". The company name is not even registered with the State of NJ! I will keep reporting them to every place I can. No one should take a job with them either. I will not stop.

Ordered online (first mistake) from florist shop I THOUGHT was in Fargo, ND. Troys Florist. They falsely promote themselves as "local" Fargo florist. Email and follow up call after the order telling me "I did not meet the local florist minimum order requirement" they needed additional $10 to meet requirement. I said, "no absolutely not – cancel my order immediately" send me confirmation of cancelled order immediately". Cust Svs rep then said, "oh it’s just a suggested amount to add to your order". Total scam. I cancelled my card via instant chat with my bank and alerted them about Troys. Reporting to BBB only to learn they have an "F" rating. Go figure.

Ordered a large floral arrangement ($223) for my friend’s father’s viewing in New Jersey. The flowers did not arrive and my friend and her family did not receive. After hours of dealing with the customer service people at Troy’s, who just repeated the same thing, that they received confirmation that it was delivered, they refused to refund my money. Now I’m realizing that there have been many other people that this has happened to as well. If i knew this prior, I would have NEVER ordered from them. This business should be shut down. They have this whole paragraph on their website about exceptional customer service, etc, etc, IT is all a scam and all false!!!! I have a learned a great lesson from this, do your homework before trusting someone to have a reputable business plan and service business.

Called for two different arrangements to be delivered to my customers for appreciation of winning a contest.

First ser of flowers a recieved a call saying it was out of there area and a $10.00 additional fee would be requuired. After complaining that i had recieved a receipt saying the transaction was complete. Matt a customer service rep said they would take care of it. I immediately called my customer to let him know his wifes flowers would be late. He reported they where already delivered. Part 2 is i recieved another call 10 minutes later telling me that the other set of flowers could’t be devliverd for it was not enough dollars for delivery. Again i complained and this time they cancled the order. hens my customer didnt get the promised gift on time.

I beleave this is a bait and switch company. How many have fallen for this I have been with the same company for over 28 years in sales. I can’t help myself calling out unethical practices.

This is a "national"’ third-party

florist. Like all other complaints, the product ordered was not the product received. The card memo was not even written in correct English and looked like it was written by a kid.

When contacted, they are unable to give a full refund for this junk.
