The Flower Letters are difficult to read for older people. The size of font is very small. Some of the stationery is a darken color which adds to the difficulty in reading m. I'm sure it is a cost saving measure using small font saving money on less stationery. When the letter arrives I almost dread attempting to have to read another letter. This was a gift or I would ask for refund. I would not recommend purchase unlessan optionforlarge print..
Worst customer service I have experienced. One month from the order and my mom STILL has not rcvd her first letter! She does have an empty tin and yesterday received the second letter which should be an embarrassment for this company. After arguing with them for weeks, they finally sent another first letter and of course refused to express mail it so she may be waiting another 2+ weeks (IF this one actually shows up!) Why can't this organization stand behind their product? Also if you are going to blast advertise - perhaps you should also be sure you can service the demand Pathetic! I would have cancelled and disputed the expensive charge, but my mom was excited to receive it.
Hi Diane P.,
This is Angela Ahn, Customer Service Manager at The Flower Letters. I want to extend our sincerest apologies for the experience you’ve had with us and assure you that we are committed to resolving any issues.
At The Flower Letters, our goal is to ensure every customer’s satisfaction. If your situation has not yet been resolved, please do not hesitate to reach out to me directly at support@theflowerletters.com and include my name in your email for prompt attention.
For reference, our standard procedure is to send the first letter within three business days after receiving an order. Typically, the letter arrives within a few days, but it can take up to two weeks depending on postal delays. In cases where a letter does not arrive, we are always happy to resend a complimentary copy.
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to make things right.
I am very disappointed in this service and HIGHLY RECOMMEND if anyone is thinking of gifting this to try it out first for yourself. The font with the letters is extremely difficult to read (I'm not old either) the paper and print is not always legible. The letter should come every 2 weeks and they don't - I have to contact customer service which is very difficult - We as customers seem to be their testers also - they keep adding new letters yet have not ironed out the current process. This is not ready for Prime Time yet.
Hi Connie R., This is Angela Ahn, Customer Service Manager at The Flower Letters. Thank you for your feedback. We have reached out to you via email and left a voice message. From our records, we have sent out your letters in a timely manner. Once mailed, the letters can take up to two weeks to arrive. If a letter doesn't reach its destination, we are always happy to resend.
We’ve served tens of thousands of happy customers and mailed over 2 million letters across the globe. While not always perfect, we do our best to make things right for customers and are always looking for ways to improve our processes. In your case, as I mentioned, we have reached out personally so that we may help you find a solution. Also, please note that Sitejabber does not reflect our reviews accurately - they withhold positive reviews hostage until we pay them. Please visit our website for more up to date and accurate reviews.
Never received my letters, for 2 months! And to get in contact with anyone is ridiculous hard. They said I'd get a refund but never did! Beware!
Hi Alyssa,
This is Angela Ahn, Customer Service Manager at The Flower Letters. I want to sincerely apologize for your experience and assure you that we are committed to making things right.
From our records, it appears that our team has been in communication with you regarding this matter. One of our agents resent the missing letter, and we also processed both the cancellation of your order and a refund. We recommend checking with the payment service you used for your purchase, as refunds are issued immediately on our end but can take up to 10 days or a full billing cycle to reflect, depending on your provider.
We have also reached out to you via email with further details. Please let us know if there's anything else we can do to assist you. We truly appreciate your patience and understanding.
My first letter order was a complete bust. I never even received the first letter. I was left on my mom's birthday with no present. I even ordered this service 3 weeks before her birthday. I tired to reach out multiple times to The Flower Letters and was completely ghosted. DO NOT use this service, you will be as unsatisfied as me.
Hi Marcia T.-This is Angela Ahn, Customer Service Manager with The Flower Letters. We are so sorry about your experience! We aim to provide our customers with excellent care and sincerely apologize that this has not been the case. If you would reach out to me personally at support@theflowerletters.com and write that the email is to be directed to the manger’s attention, I would be more than happy to help. Also, please know that your emails have not been ignored and we are so sorry you felt ghosted! As an explanation, when multiple emails are sent from the same customer, our system sends the ticket to the back of the line. We try to communicate this on our contact page and in our auto responders and are sorry if this message wasn’t received. Once again, we are willing and wanting to help, so please reach out to me personally.
I loved the idea of getting letters between characters during the WWII era as it was the time period my own parents met and married. I intended on purchasing other letters when the Audrey Rose series wrapped up. I have gotten 23 of the 24 letters! I am left frustrated with never getting the final letter or finding out how their story ends! Finding a way to contact these folks has proved to be challenging at best. I am going to resubmit my request for my final letter after hearing nothing from them for weeks now. Good concept but horrible customer service. It's a shame, but I won't order more.
Hi Teresa T.- This is Angela Ahn, Customer Service Manager with The Flower Letters. We are so sorry that you were missing your last letter! Please know that our policy is to happily resend any missing letter. We certainly want our customers to enjoy their full story to completion. It also sounds like you had a difficult time reaching us and we are so sorry about that. We have tried to make our contact information available through our website, regular email notifications, Facebook, and our Facebook Community Group. We can be reached most directly through support@theflowerletters.com. Please know that responses are usually within a day but can be delayed if we are experiencing a high volume of emails. When we do reach your ticket, we will do everything in our power to assist. We sincerely appreciate your patience.
I've got to admit I am highly disappointed in The Flower Letters and their lack of service. I purchase this subscription for my Mom and at first we were pleased but half way through the subscription something happened and my subscription was stopped, I contacted customer service and after a lot of emails I was assured the subscription would start again from where it had ended (letter 14), Mom did receive letter 14 as promised several weeks later - I gave them a pass putting it down to updating systems etc but then nothing... I emailed again, then randomly Mom received letter 22. So yet again I had to contact them Via email - It was finally resolved by me having to have ALL the remaining subscription posted to me so I could post them two weekly to my mom at an additional cost to myself. Really not worth the £122
Hi Mandie W.- This is Angela Ahn, Customer Service Manager with The Flower Letters. We are so sorry that your Flower Letters’ experience didn’t turn out as expected! It looks like the letters were traveling internationally and some of your letters didn’t arrive. We are truly sorry about that. Letters traveling internationally face a few more obstacles as they are traveling a further distance and through different mail carriers.
We thought the best solution to this would be to send all the remaining letters to you in one package, to ensure you would receive all the letters with tracking. We know this isn’t the ideal way to receive the letters, but since some of them were not arriving successfully via regular mail, we were hoping this would be a solution instead of continuing to have to wait for each letter. Our intention was to help, and we are so sorry if you didn’t feel that way. If you reach out to me at support@theflowerletters.com to my attention, we would be happy to try to make things right for you.
I have reached out 2 times by email, 2 additional times through the website and still no response on when my items will be sent. Ordered 1/7/2024. My 80 year old aunt is the one suffering here. She has very little to look forward to and was so excited about this gift.
Hi Elaine R.-This is Angela Ahn, Customer Service Manager with The Flower Letters. We are truly sorry about the delay in response. We are currently experiencing a high volume of emails and truly appreciate your patience and understanding during this time. While we typically respond within 1–3 business days, our current response time has been extended. One of the biggest reasons for this is that sending additional emails within the same thread may unintentionally delay our response, as our system moves the inquiry to the back of the queue. In your case, we think this is what may have happened, and we are so sorry. Similarly, multiple emails, chat messages, or social media posts can congest our system and further slow down response times.
We have reached out to you through your email and have provided a solution for your dear aunt to receive her letters! Please know it is our desire to help serve our customers. We look forward to communicating with you there.
Reading the love story between Audrey Rose and Charlie has been so charming. The war time story line told thru letters back and forth from the couple brings me such a sweet joy. After 12 months of this story I plan to purchase annually. Thank you. Pam
Hi Pamels D.-Thank you so much for your comment! We are so glad you are enjoying your Flower Letters. The back-and-forth writing style and anticipation of waiting for the letters are all part of the immersive experience to help you put yourself in the characters' shoes. Have you the opportunity to visit our website? We have a complimentary "Learning" section so our readers can learn more about the cultural context of their stories (https://theflowerletters.com/pages/learn-more). We also have a "Customer's Stories" review section, where our readers share their joyful experiences with The Flower Letters. One customer shared how 4 generations of her family read the letters together, while others make beautiful art projects inspired by the letters. (https://theflowerletters.com/pages/customer-stories) We appreciate you being a valued customer.
Sadly, I am nearing the end of my Lily Clara letters. I'm up to letter 18 of 24. I am thoroughly enjoying the story. I love the extras you get in the envelopes. I will say the writing style takes time to read but that's part of the fun.
I did have two envelopes arrive torn by the post office. I contacted customer service and was issued replacements.
In a few weeks I will have to pick my next story.
Hi Linda L.- This is Angela Ahn, Customer Service Manager with The Flower Letters. We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the Lily Clara story! Thank you so much for your kind review and for letting us know about the replacement letters you received after they were damaged by the post office.
Our goal is to ensure that our customers are happy and satisfied, so we are glad we could address that issue for you. And yes, getting used to the unique writing style is definitely part of the charm! We often use a cursive font to capture the essence of the time period of each story.
Have you had a chance to choose your next story? If you’re looking for inspiration, you might enjoy exploring the experiences of other customers by visiting the following page: https://theflowerletters.com/pages/customer-stories.
Thank you again for your support and feedback!
I now have 20 postcards I'll never use and no stickers. Some of these are hard to follow and not all have letters. I've gotten bored with them. I don't think they are worth the money. This was a birthday present from my daughter. I've told her to cancel and save her money.
Hi Karen C.-This is Angela Ahn, Customer Service Manager with The Flower Letters. We are so sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet your expectations. Our postcards are designed for you to collect or share, and we are sorry if they were not something that were useful to you.
If you’re missing any items or if there’s anything else we can do to assist, please reach out to us at support@theflowerletters.com and request to be directed to me. I’d be more than happy to help resolve any issues.
It sounds like you might have lost interest in the story, and we understand that can be disappointing. Although it might be a bit late, we wanted to let you know that we do offer the option to switch to a different story if you’re not enjoying the current one.
Thank you for your feedback, and please let me know if there’s anything else we can do for you.
I enjoyed a lot this suscription. The flower letters is a story sent to you by mail twice a month, the Audrey Rose collection tells the love story of a couple during the war.
They send you this lovely envelopes with a finely printed letter and an extra, which could be a postcard, a bookmark or any other surprise.
I like the idea of the letters but honestly, my experience with customer service has been terrible. There is no number to call, no address listed and the only way to contact them is email...they don't answer email in a timely manner. It has been 10 days and no reply. When you email the second time, They send an automated response saying don't email a second time but give them a chance to reply. 10 days is long enough to wait! They missed sending the letter the first 2 mailing dates, then said they would send 2 letters together but that was 2 weeks ago and nothing. Very frustrating. Nice concept but I have one very disappointed granddaughter as her cousin is getting her letters but other is not. Its not worth the stress!
Hi Ta H.-This is Angela Ahn, Customer Service Manager at The Flower Letters. We are truly sorry to hear that your granddaughter has been experiencing difficulties receiving her letters. Please know that our goal is to support our customers in every way possible.
It appears that while the tin was successfully delivered, the letters have not arrived. If that’s the case, we can easily resolve this by sending the letters in a package rather than through regular mail. Please reach out to support@theflowerletters.com and request that your email be forwarded to the manager, so we can assist you promptly.
Regarding the wait time, we sincerely apologize. Our typical response time is 1-3 days, but if multiple emails are sent from the same address, it’s possible the messages are pushed to the back of the queue. We are very sorry if this happened in your case. Thank you for your understanding, and we are committed to resolving this for you.
I ordered from this company in November as of now in January I have yet to receive my order. I am furious! I have reached out to customer service multiple times and I most of the time no one responds. Twice I have got a response and they said they would resend the letter but I have still not received it and yet they are still charging my card every month for a product I have never even received. Terrible company!
Hi Kristin S.,
This is Angela Ahn, Customer Service Manager at The Flower Letters. I’m truly sorry to hear about the challenges you've experienced! Please know that it is our mission to assist our customers in every way possible, whether that’s investigating delays in receiving letters, exploring alternative delivery options, or finding any other solutions to help resolve the issue.
We aim to respond to all inquiries within 1-3 days. However, when multiple messages are sent, it’s possible that your inquiry could have been pushed back in the queue. If that happened in your case, I sincerely apologize. To ensure your message is addressed promptly, please email support@theflowerletters.com and ask for your email to be forwarded to the manager.
Lastly, please check your junk or spam folder, as sometimes our emails may land there by mistake.
Thank you for your patience, and we look forward to resolving this for you.
The letters I chose started out great but now I am having a hard time understanding who is even writing the letters. Very confusing, hard to read and not interesting after about the 15th letter or so. I got totally lost and confused. I chose the Nora Aven story. If you want the first ones that I got, I will mail them to you - you can pay the shipping. Judy
Hi Judy S.-Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts with us. We're truly sorry to hear that the letters have become a bit confusing! To help regain the flow of the story, we suggest going back and re-reading the letters from the beginning. This can help restore continuity and give you a better sense of the storyline’s progression.
We encourage you to stick with it—every story has its ups and downs, but each part is important to the bigger picture. We really value your feedback and will be sure to pass it along to our writer.
In the meantime, feel free to check out our review page to see what other readers are saying about the Norah Aven series. https://theflowerletters.com/pages/customer-stories
What a gimmick! I was given this for my 70th birthday and was so excited.
Received the 1st and 3rd letter and no more. The person who gave it to me has emailed them several times...but still no letters. BE WARNED...DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!

I ordered this subscription back on Nov 27,2023.
Nothing received as of January 15,2024.
NOTHING!
I requested an UPDATE. NO RESPONNSE
I requested a REFUND. NO RESPONSE.
They have a beautiful marketing program to lure you in but they REFUSE to send the letters.
These people are SCAMMERS CHEATERS AND LIARS!
PLEASE— Do NOT waste your money.
You will be deeply disappointed by the Customer Service.
I'm contacting my credit card company.
This is absolute FRAUD.
WOW!
Hi Val H.- This is Angela Ahn, Customer Service Manager with The Flower Letters. It sounds like you did not have a positive experience, and we sincerely apologize about that. Please know it our policy to help our customers as best as possible, whether that is ensuring they receive their letters or receive a refund.
You may have reached us during the busy aftermath of the holiday season when our response time is slower, or your ticket may have been pushed back as our system moves tickets from the same email to the back of the line if there are multiple outreaches. If this happened to you, we are so sorry.
We send out thousands of letters each month with success, but occasionally we have a few letters that may not reach their destination due to a multitude of reasons. If this happens, we try everything in our power to work with our customers to find a solution. If your situation has not already been resolved, please reach out to me at support@theflowerletters.com and direct the email to my attention. We will do everything we can to assist.
The whole concept is lovely but I kept getting cut letters and didn't receive much help from customer service. They also delete my comments from their Instagram.
Hi Reena H.,-This is Angela Ahn, Customer Service Manager at The Flower Letters. We are so sorry to hear that your letters have been arriving in damaged condition. Please rest assured, we’re here to help you find a solution.
While our letters leave the warehouse in pristine condition, it seems that during transit—passing through various machines and mail systems—they may be getting damaged. We deeply regret that this has affected your experience.
Please email us at support@theflowerletters.com and request that your message be forwarded to the manager, so we can address this issue for you as quickly as possible. Thank you so much for your understanding, and we look forward to assisting you.
I have been enjoying the letters between Audrey & Charlie takes place WW11, being a daughter of of WW2 father I have really enjoyed this I just have to say the excitement in waiting for the next letter is hard cause you can't wait to see what's going to happen and I feel more part of the story this way then a book it's wonderful a way of telling a story!

I bought this as a gift for my daughter over 3 weeks ago and started sending emails inquiring status after 2 weeks. Over 3 weeks later and still no delivery or update. There's no number to call and I finally got a response via email saying it could take up to 2 weeks to deliver. I guess they didn't bother looking at my screenshots showing 2 weeks had already passed. My email also stated this as well. My daughter was really looking forward to it and it's unfortunate we can't seem to get help. Now the struggle to get support for cancellation and refund begins.

Dear Catherine-My name is Angela Ahn, and I’m the Customer Service Manager with The Flower Letters. I sincerely apologize that you’re having difficulty reading your letters.
We have made efforts to improve the font size and lighten our paper for better readability. However, if your letters are still challenging to read, we would be happy to switch your subscription to one with a larger font, provided you are two letters or fewer into your subscription. If you are further along, we can make the change for a fee of $5 per letter.
Our Adelaide Magnolia story is a Regency Romance with a larger font and written in cursive, while Norah Aven also features a larger font and is a modern-day fantasy story. Additionally, some of our readers have found that using a lighted magnifying reader helps with readability.
If you’d like to explore these options, please reach out to us at support@theflowerletters. Com and request to be connected with me—I’d be happy to assist you further.
Warm regards,
Angela Ahn
Customer Service Manager
