Pro Flowers<\/strong> is the best in the business bar none!<\/h2>\n

I have to tip my hat to Pro Flowers as they have an incredible go above and beyond the call of duty customer service department.<\/p>\n

Quick story\u2026<\/p>\n

Last month, April 2013 in case you\u2019re reading this sometime after May, was my 22 wedding anniversary. And I wanted to prime the pump a little with a pre-anniversary just because set of flowers. Actually I needed to build up some brownie points anyway\u2026but this was a just because gift.<\/p>\n

I decided to send my wife some flowers to her new work. Now I knew where she worked as I had visited her new office and had her address. But I didn\u2019t have her suite #.<\/p>\n

So I looked up her company online and found it. I\u2019m such a savvy resourceful person you know. Better to search myself than to ask her right?<\/p>\n

So go online to Pro Flowers<\/span> and book an awesome package. Upgrade to special deliver and custom vase. So far so good\u2026she will get them the next day by noon.<\/p>\n

The following day when noon came and went and I didn\u2019t hear from her I started to get a little curious if she got them. So I called her just to say hi\u2026.still smooth right?<\/p>\n

But before I do I quickly check ProFlowers.com and check for the POD (proof of delivery) Hmmm\u2026 the person who signed for the flowers does not work in my wife\u2019s office. I call Pro Flowers and verify that the address was right. I also mention that the person who signed for the flowers does not work with my wife.<\/p>\n

Now I\u2019m calling my wife\u2026again just to say hi of course and she doesn\u2019t say anything about the flowers. So I ask what suite # she is in. Come to find out the # I got online and gave to Pro flowers was not correct.<\/p>\n

UGHHH\u2026.my fool proof sneaky plan of having a Pro Flowers<\/em> deliver a cool set of flowers right to her desk\u2026foiled. Dilemma time!<\/p>\n

Do I tell my wife that her \u201csurprise flowers\u201d was delivered on a different floor where now she has to get them herself? Or do I order another set and have them delivered yet a day later and now it\u2019s not that much of a surprise?<\/p>\n

Pro flowers Saves the Day<\/p>\n

While on the phone with my wife I come clean and tell her about her surprise flowers. She says she be glad to go get them since it\u2019s in the same building but on a different floor. I\u2019m feeling kind of bummed about this not turning out like I wanted but here\u2019s where it gets cool.<\/p>\n

About a minute later Pro Flowers calls me back and says they can deliver another set to the right address. I told them, thanks but don\u2019t worry about it as it was my fault and my wife will go see if she can get them from the office they were delivered to.<\/p>\n

The customer service rep said\u2026<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI\u2019ve already added a replacement order free of charge and they will ship out tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I was blown away. Full complete order, custom vase, and special delivery and shipped next in line with the batch going out that night! So cool!!<\/p>\n

Long story short my wife got double the flowers and both sets lasted almost 2 weeks as they were cut from the field the day they shipped.<\/p>\n

Needless to say Pro Flowers has my business for life anytime I order flowers online.<\/p>\n
