            Pattern of Complaint:

            On August 24, 2023, BBB notified Francesca’s Element LLC of concerns in consumer complaints regarding the company’s marketplace practices.

            Specifically, BBB identified a pattern of complaints where consumers alleged that Francesca’s Element LLC:

            • Was paid in advance (and/or in full) for a service that has not been received/completed.
            • Notified the consumer via email that it was ceasing all operations, and no refund would be issued.
            • Did not return the consumer’s dried flowers and/or belongings after the business announced its closing.
            • If the consumer did receive their items (flowers/accessories) back, they were unusable to be preserved by a different company.
            • Consumers have not been refunded by the company and/or their bank.

            BBB requested the company's voluntary cooperation in eliminating the identified pattern in consumer complaints by providing a written response outlining the steps the company will implement to avoid future complaints of the same or similar nature.

            BBB confirmed via the Texas Secretary of State website that Francesca’s Element LLC was voluntarily dissolved on August 31, 2023.

            Francesca’s Element LLC was not responsive to the consumer complaints nor any of BBB’s inquiries regarding the pattern of complaints and the investigation was closed as ‘Failed to Respond’ on 10/17/2023.

            Met with Francescas element in 10/10/22 and pause $615.94 to preserve my wedding flowers for my May 2023 wedding. I was married on 5/25/23 and shipped my bouquet on 5/27/23. I did not hear from them until 6/13/23 to confirm they received my bouquet.On 7/31/23 they sent a mass email stating they were closing and would be shipping my flowers back. No refund or further communication. Their email and social media accounts were deactivated so we could not contact them. I received my dried flowers back on 12/18. And then had to hire a different company to send the flowers to complete the preservation which then cost me an additional $500. This has tainted what should have been a happy time. The stress of thinking I lost my once in a lifetime flowers was disheartening.
