At Realtime Flowers Brisbane (RTFB) we aim to resolve complaints in a prompt, courteous and fair manner. Despite the best interests of all parties, problems can occur with regard to incorrect product shipped, product arriving damaged or product not arriving at all or on time. This document aims to outline our policy on complaints.

Definitions
  • ‘Complaint’ is taken to mean a complaint from a buyer submitted to RTFB.
  • ‘Hidden deficiency’ means a deficiency that was not visible within one hour of delivery to the buyer, though it must have been present at the time.
Preconditions
  • The supplier authorizes RTFB to handle buyer complaints. The complaints procedure is to be financed by the supplier, unless decided otherwise by RTFB.
  • The buyer may not reject any batch without the agreement of RTFB and subsequent issuance of a credit note by RTFB.
  • The buyer may not claim damages.

Procedure
1. Within 2 hours of the buy taking procession of the product, the buyer must approach Realtime Flowers Brisbane with the entire batch relating to the complaint or details of the batch if the product has been delivered to the buyer. The buyer may also report the complaint, described clearly, by fax or e-mail before 5.00pm on the day they take procession of the product.
2. Complaints can be accepted by phone, fax, mail or email. RTFB will respond by phone or email as appropriate with the next two working days. Although each case will be dealt with on its merits, the general policy is to refund or replace goods where they are found to have been substandard, not delivered or late delivered (ie outside the limits of our guarantees on delivery dates).
3. We will aim to resolve any complaint to our customers satisfaction within one week of the initial contact
4. RTFB will then assess whether the complaint is justified. Any loss of quality must not be attributable to the time kept in storage by the buyer.
5. If the complaint is justified, the buyer may opt for a price discount or return of the sale. If the sale is returned, the batch may be resold. Transport costs will be met by the grower for the return of product to RTFB. If the return of the sale to RTFB is not viable RTFB may request that the buyer destroy the product or RTFB may send an agent to inspect and/or destroy the product. Any costs associated with the RTFB agent will be met by the supplier.
6. If the complaint is not justified, the buyer may choose to re-sell the batch at his/her own cost and risk.
7. When the dispute is found in the buyers favor, credit for the disputed purchase will be auctioned immediately via the financial institution concerned. Financial institution charges will not normally be refunded.
8. Realtime Flowers Brisbane decisions on these maters are final.

Exceptions
1. In the case of a hidden deficiency, the complaint must be reported to the RTFB authorised person as soon as the deficiency is observed, at the latest within four hours of receiving the sale, by fax, telephone, e-mail or in writing.
2. The complaint is assessed by Realtime Flowers Brisbane once the buyer has registered with the part of the batch that is still present (if absent, see 3.).
3. At the request of Realtime Flowers Brisbane, the buyer may be required to submit one or more of the following forms of evidence: photographs, a third party inspection report, or a portion of the batch returned. This evidence must be in the hands of Realtime Flowers Brisbane within one day of the initial report. Third parties may only be involved with the consent of Realtime Flowers Brisbane. Initially, any examination costs incurred by third parties are at the buyer’s expense, and are ultimately to be settled by whichever party is ruled against.
4. If the complaint is justified, and the deficiency is determined to have been latently present prior to delivery, and the period of storage by the buyer has not led to loss of quality, the buyer receives a refund of the sale price.

If RTFB is proven to be in error, the buyer may opt for a price discount or annulment of the sale. If the buyer chooses a discount, this is settled by RTFB. If the sale is annulled, the batch is resold at the cost of RTFB, as long as the batch fulfils the minimum quality requirements set. If the batch does not fulfill these requirements, it will be destroyed at the cost of the RTFB.
