I am:
- Retired Air Force.
- Mother is 78.
- This attempted transaction was intended to celebrate her birthday.
7 times I attempted to purchase flowers today and the following results occurred:
- card was declined and a suspicion of fraud hold was enacted x1
- FTD would not accept my card. X4
- FTD asserted that billing & shipping addresses were required to be the same x2
This was not an insufficient funds or a bank error--I spoke w/them and they identified the problem as FTD.
The unnecessary website malfunctions are a direct reason, why flowers will not be delivered today.
The grand total time wasted was apx 66 minutes.
I've have bought flowers from FTD previously and never had problems, however this will be my final interaction w/the business.
For future customers, I strongly recommend, www.teleflora.com, I purchased my flowers in under 3 minutes.
