I recently bought a packet of L&B Red 20s from my local general store, Abbottsfield Road Store in Claremont Tasmania. Once home from my trip to the shop I opened my newly purchased packet of cigarettes, I lit one up and to my surprise halfway down the cigarette smoke stopped coming through the filter. I looked at the lit end and observed a thick chunk of tobacco struggling to burn through. I put it out and lit another in hopes of a different outcome, but no. I didn't get a different outcome. I got another chunky cigarette. And one after the other I got chunky cigarettes from that whole pack. I disregarded the matter however thinking it would just be a one off incident. But again, I was wrong. The next packet I bought from the same place was the exact same as the previous one. I buy these cigarettes because they are the cheapest option at my general store and I don't have the money to buy more expensive brands. I have been a L&B customer for over a year now, and I refuse to not be compensated for my two terrible packs. They were both Lambert and Butler Red 20s.
Claimed loss: 63 dollars. Two packs of L&B 20s.
Desired outcome: 63 dollars or two packets of Lambert and Butler 20s

Two packs in a row with chunky, un-smokeable cigarettes is a disgrace. You deserve better quality, even if you’re buying the cheaper option.
Imperial Tobacco needs to step up and take responsibility. Make sure they hear you loud and clear. Demand compensation for those faulty packs, and don’t let them get away with providing subpar products. You've been a dedicated customer, and it's time they start treating you with the respect you deserve. Keep pushing until you get the resolution you're owed. Stay strong, and make sure they know you won’t back down.
