Camel camel (light) blue

Hi there! I have been smoking camel cigarettes for many years and the last pack I got last night had a few "empty" cigarettes. The point of the cigarettes did not have tabacco in. I checked the bottom of the box and there was no spillage. This is quite disappointing as we pay a lot of money for our favorite cigis and we expect the quality that we have always had.

Thank you for your time.

Camel camel crush

I got a pack of Camel Crush. At first I thought maybe you were changing the cigs bc they look different. However, I tasted it an was like... "Oh no, I hope they aren't changing. These have a stronger menthol taste an not the mint burst. I got another pack but at a different store an they look like the ones I'm use too. I'll upload a photo of what I'm talking about. What's going on? You can see the color is different. One is a dark green line an it's norm light green. Along with the lines around the camel for the crush. The other ones don't have that.

About a month ago I bought my first pack of Carmel Crush cigarettes that were different than normal. Darker green ring on the cigarette, huge change in taste and flavor, and the clear packaging concealing the box had a new blue line around it. It didn't take long to figure out different places in town still had the old style ones. Throughout the couple of weeks I avoided buying any of the newer packs if I could, now that's all we have around town in the stores. Not sure why or what happened but I wish I could continue to purchase the older style ones.

Camel camel blues

Hey guys! Love your brand! Been smoking it for 15 years! My problem is that my box keep getting crushed in my pocket and breaking my smokes to the point I will have 5 or 6 smokes left that are completely ruined. I never cared these past years, but it's costing me more money than i have! Any way, just thought you should know! Please don't think I'm mean. Just make a stronger box!

+Also I know that the solution is to keep my pack out of my pocket. But that's just something most of us smokers do. + Hope you'll understand.

Thanks,
mason

Camel camel snus frost

I am a loyal camel snus frost consumer since 2008. Recently the last few tins i have purchased have been way below "par"...upon putting a pouch in my mouth, within 5-10 minutes one end of the pouch opens up and all the enclosed tobacco goes all over my mouth. This is not just one or two pouches in a tin, but every one of them (!) I typically enjoy the pouch for around 2 hours before disposing of it. I intentionally buy camel snus pouches because i do not like loose dip.the fact that the pouches break immediately completely defeats the purpose of buying your pouches! Thia has occurred for at least the last 5 tins that i have bought. I thought it might be a fluke, however 5 out of 5 is no accident...i even purchase them at different stores, to no avail. Is this a conscience change that your company has made or am i just THAT unlucky...the tins are not cheap and am very hesistant to purchase anymore of your product...the code on the latest tin is: DO102MD8. Please respond to me @ [protected]@gmail.com or [protected]@yahoo.com and let me know what is going on, i will wait on your response before i waste my money on anothe tin of camel snus frost (small ones)...until then i am going to try other brands...hope to hear from you soon and hope that this problem is just a fluke...thank you, nat spencer

Camel camel snus pouches

Hello,
I been buying camel snus for almost a year and every now and again one or more of the pouches is slightly tore open or not sealed fully, which isn't usually a big deal, but yesterday on 28 May 2018 I bought a tin of camel snus frost (small pouches) and all but 3 or 4 of the pouches were not sealed. Some of the pouches had the tobacco spilled out of it. I was vary disappointed. I had to throw a couple of them out because there was barely anything in them. Can I get a refund or replacement, please. Thank you.

Camel - the new camel 99s

I'm switching brands until you bring back the original camel filter 99s before they turned into a pile of [censored]. Instead of enjoying my camel, I sit there and wonder why I continue to buy them. why ruin a good thing? I don't have to think much on which brand I'd rather smoke because any brand is better than what you guys are putting on the shelves at...

Camel camel crush menthol silver

I am very disappointed that I have to write a complaint to you guys. I have only bought camel products for the past 4 years, this is the first time I've been extremely let down by the product. I bought a pack of camel crush menthol silver today, on 5/27. I have now smoked 4 cigarettes out of this pack, when I went to crush them the ball was already crushed, and they do not taste as menthol as normal. I am not sure if this is something that happens but I have never experienced this, and I buy 2 packs everyday. I am very upset as I do not have money to go and get a new pack to replace these right now, and I feel as if I wasted my money. Is there anything that can be done?

Camel camel active yellow

I absolutely love this specific brand and taste but the last month or two I am very disapointed in my smokes. (and family reckons I am a chain smoker)
I buy my sigarettes in cartons and go through nearly two a week but out of the two I sit with four packets full of "duts" meaning all of them has no bubble in it to pop and I stay loyal to camel but every single packet I seem to open has the same problem... It especially annoy's me while i'm driving and I would like to smoke and there is no little ball to pop.
Please advice on the matter. (i've kept all the "duts")

Good day

This is by far the best cigarettes I've ever smoked, however, I purchased a 20 pack from Mall of Africa Checkers 11.07.2018 and half of the box did not have balls to activate which lands up like tasting like homemade cigarettes.

I'm extremely disappointed as you all know that VAT went up and everything is expensive. I couldn't take it back because I live further away (15km).

Hi, been smoking Camel since I started smoking, smoked Camel yellow since they were launched, the last few months I noticed that more than 25%of each carton bought was defaulted, either no ball in sigarette, which means no favour, or the top just comes loose, not impressed and disappointed in the standards lately.

Camel camel

I had bought 2 packs of camel crush. I'm not usually one to complain but they are too expensive not to.. both packs had an old nasty taste to them. I had someone else try them to make sure it wasn't me. But they said the same thing. I don't smoke anything other than camels and I have to buy a pack a day. There has been numerous times this has happened. And I don't want to buy another brand.

Camel camel platinum

I've been smoking these cigarettes for some time now with no problems. Whatever you changed is more of a danger than any chemicals found in these cigarettes! 5 times in the last week my cherry fell of in the car while traveling 70 mph! While scrambling to keep my car from catching fire, I found myself veering into the opposite lane! I pack my cigarettes vigorously before opening and this should not be an issue! I don't know what you changed, but get rid of it, before it causes a horrific car accident to myself or anyone consuming your product! Thank you

Camel camel filter 99

You have changes you cigarette not just the packaging but the whole cigarette itself. I have smoked camels for 29yrs and love them. Then you change them What the he'll. They sux they burn differently they taste differently there a lot softer and not to mention they cause me to hack up phlegm in the mornings when I never have done that before. My husband and I drove all around our city looking for the old ones.. We have decided to go to Marlboro ciggerates now! So thank you for changing the best ciggerates on the market... NOT REALLY

Camel camel blues

I've smoked camel lights/blues since 1990. Never have switched always loved my camels. But this new camel blues are a very harsh taste and very different. This is the first time I've considered switching brands because they are that different. They say it's just the packaging that is different and that is very wrong. They are horrible. Is there any explanation for this change? Many of my friends have said the same. Please respond I'm not the only one that is saying this.

Camel camel lights packaging

I am a loyal Camel light cig smoker, but lately the past 2-3 weeks I have been having a hard time locating my usual brand. tried many diff places I usually get them at, but they say the camel Turkish blend is the same as the lights, that your company must have changed pkging. I have tried smoking them but they just are not the same . I might change brands.

Camel menthol cigarettes

Over the past two months I've bought packs, maybe 7 total where the cigarettes have been tough to smoke. Something is wrong with the cigarettes. When I take my first puff, if doesn't pull through like the binding or something isn't working. It gives off an awful taste and after two puffs, the filter immediately turns dark dark brown. I'm not pleased at all considering I spend a lot of money on these packs and have to throw some away without being smoked is extremely annoying and aggravating.

Camel camel crush menthol

I have bought 4 packs of camels in the past two days and have been throwing them out every time. They are not brining right and taste horrible. And I am not the only camel crush person to have this problem. Is there a bad batch out ? Bc I have been un happy with my purchases. I smoke camel crush menthol on a regular basis and never had this problem.

Camel coupons are terrible so is the flavor of the smokes now!

Mobile coupons either don't work or arent being taken. It's been over four months since I have gotten one mailed even though I still log in three tones a month to make sure the option to mail some is checked and that i've selected the option for the month and I have and do and yet months on end none. The camel crush black pack do not taste right anymore at all no matter where you buy them. so what's up 7-11 counterfeiting those now or new formula no consumer notice ? they stink

Camel - new camel 99 packs

I have smoked Camel 99's for at least 15 years and these new packs are absolutely horrible! They don't pack they just crumble up, they don't really smoke the same and also to top it off almost every time I reach in to grab 1cigg I break 1! They just snap with little to no effort! Please get these off the shelves and give us the oldies but goodies preferred packs back! You shouldn't mess with a good thing! Thank u!
