Rumor in VT

[steve]

There is a rumor floating around in VT that FTD owns Just Flowers? Is there any truth to that?

 

[CHR]

Not unless FTD purchased JF in the last few weeks (which I highly doubt). It's been owned by Shane Garrett for years.

 

[bootcampguy]

They need order volume, so nothing would supirse me. But, they look broke (FTD).

 

[BOSS]

I doubt it... I would have heard (I'm sure) in a call I had yesterday... I'll ask today though...

I made an inquiry with FTD last night... the response I got was... "news to me"....

Still owned by Shane Garrett, want to read more... do a Google search for Garrett & Talon, inc...

I kept telling just flowers NO 2 to 4 times a day for awhole week for the same order and they kept calling me. To me that borders harrassment.

Did you try telling them that by chance??...."IF you call here again, you will be charged with harassment!!".....I wonder......

We tried the "harassment tact, didn't work at all. We finally decided to call TF EVERY time a JF calls us, went to a supervisor (not the first level) after 10 or 12 calls in 3 days they got the hint, and sent a letter to JF telling them to leave us alone, so far almost a month with not one call from them

Googled Garrett and Talon, Inc and it's a call center in the Philippines! That explains all those phone calls by fast talking Oriental girls begging us to take their orders.

it is the begging that gets to me, calling for deliveries close to zimbabwe with no clue what they sold. But it is the customer who placed their orders with these idiots who are clueless.
