Terms and Conditions

By ordering products and using this website you agree to our guarantee and terms and conditions set out below.

For more detailed information, please see our Flowers FAQ page.

Rays Florist Ltd aim to be the best supplier of floral products and gifts. If you are unhappy with your purchase then please notify us and we will attempt to remedy the situation as soon as is practically possible. Refunds may occasionally be given at the discretion of the management. Because of the perishable nature of our products you are advised to make any complaint within 1 working day of the delivery or collection of your flowers. We always endeavour to reach an agreement for either for a replacement or a refund depending upon the nature of the complaint. All bouquets, gift flowers and funeral flowers are hand delivered.

In the event that your flowers are not received, please contact us within 24 hours of the expected delivery date so that we can investigate as soon as is practically possible. Please make sure that the recipient will be at the address for sometime after the expected delivery date. If the recipient no longer stays or resides at the address where delivery has failed we will not be able to refund on the basis that the recipient is no longer there though we will be able to re-send the flowers as part of our guarantee (a re-delivery charge will be applicable). In the case of flower deliveries to funeral directors, the delivery responsibility ends once the funeral director has received the flowers. We will not be held responsible for the onward delivery of flowers from the funeral directors.

In the case of failed or recipient refused deliveries we do not refund orders unless there has been an error in the order process or that a duplicate order has been placed. We do not refund orders once the order has been accepted and is within 48 hours (or longer for funeral flowers which is 10 days), nor do we refund based on late or failed deliveries but we guarantee, if the address is correct, to re-send any product as soon as practicably possible. For more information please see our Flowers FAQ's. If we do refund a cancelled order we reserve the right to charge an admin fee to cover card processing costs and/or time spent processing or planning the order (typically 5% of order value).

If a floral delivery is refused by the recipient for any reason then Rays Florist Ltd will not be liable to refund or replace the item. Rays Florist Ltd will, however, try to resolve the matter with the person who ordered the flowers. The contract of sale is between Rays Florist Ltd and the customer who ordered the flowers. Rays Florist Ltd will not enter into any discussions regarding this unlikely sequence of events unless written correspondence is received. Please see our Contact Us page to find our address and contact information.

Rays Florist Ltd does not deliver to flowers to PO Box numbers and cannot deliver to incomplete addresses. Rays florist cannot be held liable for incorrect recipient`s addresses. Please make sure that all addresses including postcodes are complete and correct.

Whilst every effort is made to make deliveries when requested and prevent delivery requests for such dates such as public holidays, Rays Florist Ltd cannot be held responsible for delayed deliveries due to factors such as public holidays and factors within and beyond our control and will endeavour to deliver either before or after dates requested or as soon as is practicably possible. In the event of the recipient not being at the address at the time of delivery, the delivery driver will endeavour to find a close neighbour to accept the flowers and leave a card informing the intended recipient as to the location. On occasion the flowers will be left in a secure area at the address.

As fresh flowers are a living product there are occasions that a particular flower may be unavailable. Whilst every effort is made to source the product sometimes it is impossible to use a particular flower. All floral gifts are subject to availability and stringent quality checks. Rays Florist Ltd or any third party delivery agent reserves the right to send a similar floral gift or product of equal or greater value as and when necessary. All flowers must have their stems cut about an inch from the bottom of the stems on receipt and every two to three days re-cut and placed in fresh, clean water in a clean vase or container. Perishability will depend on level of care and lower room temperature. All of our floral gift bouquets are sent with full care instructions for your benefit. For more detailed care instructions please see our flower care page. 

All credit/debit card payments are subject to automated validation checks by Sagepay and paypal payment services and authorisation by the card issuer with information collected via the respective secure online payment systems. If the issuer of your credit/debit card does not authorise payment to us, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery. For detailed information about how Rays Florist process payments, please see our Website security page.
