    Was just smoking a fag there and mid smoke the thing just went up my like a cigarette lighter.

    Is this common? Never happened me before?

    Or could it be something in the air? Gas? Carbon monoxide? :confused:

    Was the cigarette around lighter fluid at any stage?

    Wow. That's new to me. Keep the packet. You might like to contact the manufacturer about it. Hope you're not too burned up or anything.

    I smoke rollies and sometimes that happens if theres a twiggy piece of tobacco in the roll,so it was probably that. But still,Id be getting on to the manufacturers.

    Similar thing happened to me - I was raging and went to write a stinky email to John Player - but then you have to register as a retailer.

    Why do you have to register as a retailer to make a consumer complaint?

    I just went to their website - only retailers can log on.

    I've seen a friend light up a cigarette and straight away it all caught fire and burnt away.

    Ring them & ask for customer service contact details.

    two things that can make that happen

    1. a friend played a prank and put in a tiny bit of match head sulphur into the ciggie

    2. there was a bit of factory debris in that ciggle that lit up
