The moral issue is not the problem. It's the privacy policy. They should have never disclosed the information to his wife when she asked for details since she was not the "customer". The fact that he was cheating (although a total jerk!) has nothing to do with the issue.
Actually, the privacy policy states that they won't share his account information with 3rd parties, which means renting his name out to other companies. Legally your spouse is not considered a 3rd party. 800-Flowers did nothing wrong, this is just another stupid case that will tie up the court system.
Actually any person but you & 1-800-FLOWERS is a third party. The wife is a 3rd party. She could have easily pretended she was her husband if he had a non-gender name. I have to do it all of the time for my boss.
By law a husband and wife are viewed as one party. I worked for a long time in direct marketing and know that if a spouse calls looking for account information you can try to push them off, but at the end of the day if they get lawyers involved they are technically entitled to see the information.
At the end of the day, he's a tool for using a cc that is billed to his home address when he's trying to hide something from his wife.

This is exactly the point I was trying to make.
