Strange Customer Service Today we noticed two suspicious charges… Today we noticed two suspicious charges on my husband bank account, after being on hold for a hour the young woman answered then saying she couldn't hear anyone, saying "are you there"? over and over again meanwhile I am speaking very loud but she keeps reapting the same sentence. On our end we had no problems but my first instinct was she heard us just fine, I can hope that I am wrong. Bill and Donna

Not the company it use to be Not the company it use to be. I ordered a S.T. Dupont lighter and CI sent me a defective lighter. After calling to get it replaced, I was told they don't send return shipping labels for lighters and I would have to pay to have the defective lighter shipped back. I don't plan on buying from CI, their sister company Cigarbid.com, or any other company associated with them.

Total scam. Total scam.. They cancelled my order because they "couldn't verify my address" (same address used to order hundreds of things online for last 10 years and nearly every single day) THEN THEY CHARGED BY CREDIT CARD ANYWAY

Auto signed me up for Puro Perks membership I've been ordering from CI for years and never had a problem, until now. I placed an order on June 12th, and all of a sudden I got 2nd charge on my card for $14.95 for an item labeled "Puro Perks Membership - MEM-CILOYAL-1000". When you click on the item description, there is none. I looked up this Puro Perks separately, and it's some BS monthly discount membership service that apparently CI started racking onto everyone's orders last month, judging from other complaints here. Gonna have to think real hard before I order from CI again. Too bad, they used to be dependable.

DON'T BUY FROM HERE DON'T BUY FROM HERE. They will send you huge paper catalogues every month without asking and share your information with other businesses that will then also start harassing you with mail solicitations. After calling to cancel future catalogues, I'm still receiving them.
