Imperial Tobacco Australia JPS RYO pouch

I am extremely disappointed in the number of stalks/sticks that I am finding in my tobacco pouches. The attached photo shows the amount from half a pouch of tobacco purchased recently. It is incredibly frustrating due to the price and the effort required to siphon these out each time I wish to roll a cigarette. Pleas do something about it I don't want to change to another brand

Imperial Tobacco Australia Champion legendary ruby

I found something that looks like tar in my 50gram packet of rolling tobacco it doesn't look like a lot but with the price of tobacco ATM it's annoying more then anything but also I thought it's something that should be brought to your attention. I purchased this at the BP service station in castletown not sure if it's a 1 off or it's in multiple packets of rolling tobacco

Thanks

Imperial Tobacco Australia Champion ruby 25g pouch

Hi there, the last 3 pouches of 25 g tobacco I have brought have had a lot of lumps of tar in them which weigh slot more than the actual tobacco, I have taken a picture of what I've found in the most recent pouch, I don't want to stop purchasing your product but may have to, just wondering what can be done about this? Some kind of compensation would be appreciated as it is expensive and feel that I'm not getting what I pay for with these chunks in each pouch.
Kind regards
Jess Hodgson

Desired outcome: Compensation of some kind

Imperial Tobacco Australia Parker & simpson red + firm touch filter 20

Been smoking Parker & Simpson Red cigarettes for about 3 years now. Had the occasional cigarette with a tear in the paper somewhere along the cigarette which would effect the way the cigarette is consumed, nothing to complain about until today when I bought this park of 20's, about Halfway through the packet of cigarettes I noticed the filter end of the cigarette was getting moist quickly and felt weird in my mouth. Then I noticed the problem when I looked at my remaining cigarettes. See pictures attached. The filter end of the cigarettes have the "rolled paper" around the filter fitted incorrectly, over hanging on several cigarettes by 2-8mm. The quality and consumption of such was effected.
I have provided this feedback for Q/A so you may avoid this happening again. Thankyou

Desired outcome: Just informing you for QA purposes, possible Reimbursement

Imperial Tobacco Australia JPS Abundant Gold tobacco - 25g - too dry

Date of purchase/incident: 17/10/2021

Purchased a sealed JPS gold pouch of tobacco on 17/10/2021.
Upon opening, the tobacco felt extremely dry resulting in difficulty rolling and keeping tobacco in the paper.

Normally, the tobacco from an unopened pack would feel slightly wet and fresh to the touch and remain this way until the pack is finished however this particular pack felt like I had left the tobacco out for a few days to dry out - it was crunchy and broke down to a dust-like consistency at the first touch.

I have never had an issue with JPS in all the years I have used this product but felt I needed to raise this as a complaint given I felt strongly about the quality of the product.

Details on the pack:
LEWL1x59LLQmN
OC180J1 1124

Desired outcome: Replacement pack

Imperial Tobacco Australia Jps superkings blue

Hi,
I generally wouldn't complain but I've noticed in the last couple of packets I have bought there is atleast one cigarette that has a default I guess if that's what you would call it. It's like it's not airtight or there's a whole in it so when you attempt to smoke it it's like smoking just air. I mean like I said I wouldn't normally complain but with the price of cigarettes these days and how much I actually consume which is about a packet a day it does all add up. Anyway just thought I'd give you the heads up in case I'm not the only one.

Thanks again 😊

Imperial Tobacco Australia Champion ruby 25 g pouch

Have been using champion ruby for years now without complaint but in the last six months have been getting balls of what seems to be like hash but from Tabasco. Hard resin putty like balls. Today I bought a pouch and it contained yet another but this was significantly bigger. My issue is these balls seem to be of a wheight that would alter the packet weight therefore probly not getting what I pay for. They are dear enough without losing out .

Imperial Tobacco Australia Dud smokes...

Hi there... I have had yet again another dud cigarette in my packet of 20s... I buy a week's worth at a time but seem to get at least 1 bad smoke in every 3rd pack the last couple months... I let it go as I know not everything can be perfect but I kept this one to show... A lot go out easily or are not wrapped on filter properly... This is my 2nd one in past week that is broken... I lit it and didn't see the issue til I looked to see why I couldn't work it properly... As you know they aren't cheap and all costs so wondering what can do about it or refund as having hole and slit in them isn't fair especially when aren't cheap...

Desired outcome: Replacement woupd be good...
