{Product Review} NetFlorist

September 21, 2016 by Laura le Roux 9 Comments

NetFlorist | SA Mom Blogs
My family and friends are spread out all over the country (and some parts of the world). As a blogger  I have developed many friendships with other bloggers who I have yet to meet in person. When friends are close by it is easy to get together for a quick coffee or drop of something for them at their office or even just bump into them in the local PnP but it is not easy when your friends are far away. NetFlorist can make this all a little easier.

We have all heard of NetFlorist but I only recently figured out how cool the service was. Obviously the basic service is a delivery one but they have some really great products that they offer and have recently introduced freshly baked goods in the major cities.

When I tested out the service I decided to treat two fellow bloggers, one who had just had a baby and the other who I knew just needed a little bit of love. I ordered for the first one thinking I had to do each order individually but you don’t. I LOVED this!

You can order a variety of items going to different people – so say on Mother’s Day you can order for mom and mom-in-law in the same order and just add their different addresses, making it super convenient. NetFlorist | SA Mom Blogs

So I was able to place the order for  both Mandy and Melissa at the same time. I would have loved to have sent Melissa a cupcake bouquet but for now, they don’t have that option for George so I sent Mandy a box of shaped cookies and Melissa some  goodies for her new baby and a treat for her to enjoy.

I had to call the call center to check something and they were incredible helpful and called me back a few times just to check everything was ok. (They had no idea I was reviewing the service).

We will be giving away a NetFlorist voucher next week so keep a look out 🙂

    I’m sorry you have had the experience. I have contacted my PR contact and they will make contact with the call centre you dealt with.

    Netflorist is a SCAM and Rip Off.
    Took my money online and never delivered order nor responded to any email follow up from me!!!

    Hi George,

    I would like to apologise on behalf of NetFlorist, I can only imagine how this tardiness inconvenienced you.

    NetFlorist’s mission is to constantly work towards improving customer experience and refining the glitches that could hinder the goals set to optimise operational processes that result to speedy delivery, customer satisfaction and excellent service.

    Please let me know if this issue was resolved by responding to keneiloe@netflorist.co.za

    I apologise again about this.

    Looking forward to your feedback.

    Sincerely,
    Keneiloe

    I’m sorry you had this experience, George. I remember with Mother’s Day they were fully booked up and I booked at the last minute so I only could have them delivered on the Monday afterwards. But I explained this to my mom and she understood. It was because I left it so late and they were upfront about how it would only be delivered on the Monday. But it isn’t right of them if they told you it would be on the day. You have every right to ask for your refund because they let you down.

    They delivered my Valentines day flowers the day after and they still expect to be paid because they were delivered

    That is like delivering bridal bouquets the day after the wedding and still wanting payment.

    I have contacted Netflorist for a refund and I have been given a bunch of “sorrys”, offers of cheap vouchers, and stubborn resistance to a refund for ruining my Valentines Day.

    In their Netflorist letterhead they state “same day delivery ” and “100% satisfaction” They deliver on neither.

    I have contacted my credit card company to have them reverse the charge.

    I ordered flowers on internet from Net Florist last week, 2 August 2018 to be delivered to my daughter in hospital.
    The flowers were delivered the same day and it is absolutely the most beautiful and best flowers I have ever seen. It is now one week later and some buds are still opening, the open flowers still look fantastic.
    I will use Net Florist in future. I am a very happy customer. Thank you Net Florist.

We also got a chance to see family and play with the cousins which was so good.

What can I say about Rustenburg.. Rustenburg has What can I say about Rustenburg..

Rustenburg has massive mountains. They are beautiful, but difficult to climb.

The chess was challenging and Nicky got 4.5 out of 9 rounds, ending in 42nd position.

My hire car struggled up the hill and the clutch started smoking. After that I came early to make sure I got a parking spot at the bottom.

The electricity was intermittent. Out Guest house had a generator which they turned off at night so Nicky had to make do with a small portable fan.

Despite all this, we are grateful for precious moments which made this trip worthwhile.

Friends that we made and spent time with

Meeting your opponent that you just played at Nando's.

Jumping on trampolines and having fun at Sun City. I lay on the beach while Nicky and Deacon did the slides.

At the airport Nicky had fun walking both ways on the treadmill and Chelsea joined him too.

All in all I'm also super grateful that we made memories and to be home safe.

I don’t think anything prepares you for the magnit I don’t think anything prepares you for the magnitude of the educational expenses of having a child. 
And the weight of making the right decisions for the right schools. 
While I’m drowning in applications and decisions, what is nice to know is that the Liberty financial adviser is there to chat to you and support you with their educational protection solutions. 
Chat to them today to protect your child’s future.

Trials 1 done and dusted and Nicky came third. First time in the under 16s so not bad.

Would you like to create content but you lack foll Would you like to create content but you lack followers?

There is another option.

User generated content is where you produce content for brands, and it really doesn't matter how many followers you have. 

Lakeisha Mugo from Kenya has put together a UGC guide that will give you the plan that you need.

What I liked about this guide:
📱No fluff, real steps.
📱Great ideas for engagement and what really makes a thoughtful comment.
📱Loads of templates for everything including letters to brands and even for feedback on your work. 
📱Africa specific and relevant.
📱How to make sure that you charge according to the different levels of UGC

It's all up on the blog! So go ahead and read it.

It's that season where we are going around looking It's that season where we are going around looking at high schools.

I know. Time flies. How did we get here?

I loved the quotes on the walls and the art work of the students. If I had to do school again, I think I'd do more art and cooking.

What would you do?

Anyway, let's hope Nicky gets accepted somewhere for next year. These applications are a lot of work. But I've done 3 of them now. 

Nicky really likes this school. And of course he went straight for the chess.

Life in cartoon form. Ask Chat GPT to make a cari Life in cartoon form.

Ask Chat GPT to make a caricature of you based on what it knows about you. You'll get a better result if you tell it what you do. The first attempt was slide 2, it thinks I am a doctor. And I never ask it medical questions. 

Try it out and see what you get.

After working from my mom's home, I had a new appr After working from my mom's home, I had a new appreciation for my work space.

But I needed to do something different. I needed to turn it around for the light. But the alarm antenna stuck out in the corner.

I was busy doing a blog post on bringing nature into your home and I got inspired to put a green feature there and bring in two flower pots. I also got some baskets to clear the clutter.

You have the power to rewrite your story and create something beautiful.

You just need that push to start.

Consider yourself pushed!

Update on Survivor PE: We have intermittent water Update on Survivor PE: We have intermittent water but no power. Lastest news is we might have it by Thursday but I'm not holding my breath.
I wanted to do laundry today and brought the maid to my mom's house and everything but because it's a cloudy day the solar is only on two dots so we've got to conserve power.

#survivorpe #survivorgq #nopower #samomblogs #somewater
When the city tells you that you're not going to h When the city tells you that you're not going to have power for two weeks!

A huge pylon collapsed due to vandalism, wind and rust.

And then your water goes...

You freak out and then you make a plan.
For the first morning, I hot spotted.

Then in the afternoon I went to my mom to teach the rest of my classes.

Since then I have basically moved all my food over to her house and started cooking there as well. I'm also going there to charge everything.

There's no point even using the gas when all the food needs to be kept cold so it needs to be done in one place.

For the water, I now have a system. We flush the toilet with pool water. Wash ourselves and dishes with tank water. And drink from the little tank. 

Nicky has also adapted and is enjoying Granny's chairs.

Oh, and I've also been restyling furniture in my study. If the light is in front of me, it is better.  I've been dealing with work assessments. 

But we can't wait for the lights to come back on and running water.

Until then, I'm super grateful for family.

Happy new school year! I started back on my exercise routine and feeling a lot better.
