The Serenata Flowers Promise

(Because it's never a good idea to bottle up your gripes)

Flowers. We love them. And not only because they look good - because they smell good, too. So you can imagine exactly how sorry we are if any experience you have of us makes you wrinkle your brow like a wilted petal or leaves a bad smell in your nose. That's why we make it our priority to get things right the first time.

Every rose has its thorn, though, and we must confess that, on rare occasions, things do go wrong. It drives us nuts, but it's one of those little things we have to live with as humans. We don't have to live with the results of these mistakes, though - and you certainly don't, either.

So, if for any reason you're not absolutely 100% happy with your Serenata Flowers experience, put up your hand. We value your feedback.

Better yet, fill in a form - just let us know! We promise that if your unhappiness is any fault of ours, we'll always offer to put things right with a sympathetic ear that really, honestly and truly does care what you think.

Our guarantees and promises

Freshness

Because our flowers are sourced directly from growers around the world, are flowers are normally sent out in bud form meaning that the recipient will be able to enjoy them longer. In a rare case where you feel that the flowers are not delivered as fresh as they should be, please do let us know.

Damages

Our flowers are packed carefully to ensure they arrive as fresh and beautiful as when they left our flower emporium, but sometimes a few petals do get damaged in transit. Should this occur, please contact us immediately. Please note that it is necessary to send us a photo of the damaged blooms or other items.

Please note: If you are unhappy with your order for any reason you will need to contact us as soon as possible, latest within 5 days of the delivery date, using the 'Contact Us' link on our website. Due to the perishable nature of our goods we are unable to deal with any complaints and issues raised after the 5 day period. For quality issues we will require a photo clearly showing the problem which you can attach to the contact form.

If your order still has not been delivered within 24 hours after the intended delivery date, you are entitled to either a full refund or a resend, no questions asked.

Important delivery information

  • To enable us to contact you regarding a problem with your order, please make sure that you have provided a valid email address and/or contact telephone numbers.

  • Please ensure that someone is available at the delivery address to receive the delivery.
  • In the event of a delivery problem, if we are able to, we will try and contact the customer to try to resolve the issue.
  • To ensure successful delivery, please ensure that the delivery address is accurate and complete. If possible, please provide additional delivery instructions to help the delivery driver to find the recipient's address.
  • We cannot be held responsible for failed deliveries that result from a problem with the address and/or postcode you provided at the time of order placement if the delivery was refused by the recipient or the fact that the recipient no longer lives at the address provided.
  • We are not responsible for any other costs incurred by the customer due to failed deliveries.

Deliveries to businesses, hospitals, universities

To ensure deliveries are successful, we recommend choosing a timed delivery option especially during busy seasons like Christmas, Valentines Day and Mother's Day.

In some circumstances, we may not be able to deliver the flowers directly to the intended recipient. Please note that these circumstances are outside our control. In this case, we will deliver to the reception area or post room and (where possible) obtain a signature from the receptionist (or equivalent). This signature will be our record of delivery.

To ensure the highest likelihood of delivery success, please ensure that you provide as much information regarding the location of the recipient as possible within the delivery instructions, including department name, floor number, etc.

Hospital-specific delivery issues

Deliveries to hospitals are often problematic as patients move from ward to ward, or are discharged. In addition, many hospitals do not accept flower deliveries due to health & safety restrictions.

It is for this reason that we no longer recommend that flowers are delivered to a hospital. If an order is placed for delivery to a hospital and the delivery is not successful, we reserve the right to not refund or resend the order.

University-related delivery issues

Due to the size of university campuses, it can often be difficult to locate recipients at universities. We are therefore not able to deliver to recipients themselves and will always deliver to the university post room or reception. Please ensure that you include enough information for the post room/reception staff to be able to locate the intended recipient of the flowers. We are not liable for the non-delivery of flowers to recipients at universities as we have no control of the delivery once it reaches the post room/reception.

Other business address delivery issues

If you wish to order flowers for delivery to a business address, we recommend that you use one of our timed delivery services (where available) to ensure delivery is made within office hours.

Please note that our free/premium guaranteed service delivery window is 8:00 - 20:00 (up to 21:00 during peak times). If you select these options and the delivery fails owing to the recipient not being available, or the business being closed, we will not accept any liability for the non-delivery and reserve the right to charge an additional production and delivery charge for any subsequent redelivery.
