Philip Morris complaint: Dangerous Poor Product

Open 879 views Tobacco / 420

Filed 9 Apr 2019 by ktsingleton885

I recently bought 2 packets of Bond Street cigarettes from my local supermarket. I usually buy another brand but decided to try them as they were slightly cheaper. Although there was the added bonus of being able to break the menthol ball to change the taste of the cigarette if I so wished I was deeply unsatisfied with this product. I came across several problems.
1) The tobacco was packed loosely
2) The cigarette did not stop burning at any point throughout the smoking of it even if I wasn’t dragging on it. As is by Australian standards, cigarettes are supposed to stop burning at 2 points when it is being unattended or not smoked. This is extremely dangerous not only contributing to unnecessary fires but also puts people at risk of losing their lives.
3) The cherry (burning part at the tip) kept coming off whenever I tapped the cigarette to ash it. Thus causing me to have to relight it time time again. This is inconvenient frustrating. It also increases the cost to the consumer by having to buy lighters because of continual relighting issues wastes lighter fluid.
4) The cigarette itself tasted rather acrid unpleasant I found no enjoyment in smoking this brand.

I will never buy this product again. I also believe that this product needs to be tested against Australian Standards for safety purposes. A rather unpleasant poorly made product.
