Davidoff customer service SUCK!!!! - Page 3

CS like that is inexcusable regardless of the product in my opinion. A product should be your name and your company. I am surprised to see that from this company. I know they are high end and deal in large dollar items but if they wont back up a lower end item why would i drop bank on any of their higher priced items. Sorry man looked like a great punch.

I have to say, it amazes me how many companies pass up these golden opportunities. Look, dad broke the darn thing. You say he pulled gently, Davidoff figures he was in a tug of war with your rottweiler. It shouldn't matter. For the small amount it would take to resolve the issue, they would get an enormous amount of positive PR. Sometimes is easy for companies to product good products, etc. But when something like this happens it's an opportunity that all the advertising dollars in the word can't immitate.

Also, there is a youtube video about social advertising. Runs about 4 minutes and the statistics about who is online, etc. is amazing. the largest growing group is 50 YOA and up. Facebook, Myspace, etc. have actually over taken p_orn as the number one hit on the Internet. Our company's product won't really benefit from social and forum-type advertising, but Davidoff...holy cow

I agree, nothing can influence me in a purchasing decsion like a few comments from someone I trust. Either good or bad..... I think most of us would prefer to get our money's value out of a product, but how we are treated matters more. I will spend more (to a point the budget can handle) for better service/support. Cheaper is not always "cheaper".

Davidoff

PM sent Don, hopefully I can help get you some resolution.

The thing that bothers me is that they bought Camacho, a cigar company I actually like. F those f%ck heads!

not smoking anymore Davidoff or Avo, well, that is not hard. Not smoking any Camacho, hmmmm, guess there is a price to pay for principles.

Thanks Ian, I don't think it will be resolved, they don't even bother to reply to my email.

A few weeks ago, Paul (php007) send me a pm and told me he had a few of these punches extra and offered to send me one. Today it arrived. Thank you very much Paul.

The owner of a B&M in The Netherlands saw the same topic on my Dutch board. He got in touch with Pronk Import, the exclusive Davidoff distributer in The Netherlands a few months ago. Earlier this week I got a call from the B&M owner (Yuri Dijkstra from www.thesaloon.eu ) and an email from a Pronk representative, they replaced the punch. They couldn't get the AVO punch, but I am getting a Zino punch.

Davidoff USA could and should learn something from Pronk and The Saloon.

Very sorry to hear this Ferdinand, but it sounds like you have got a resolution, or one coming, now about this quote:

**** Davidoff & Avo. I have some Avo cigars in my collection, they will be bombing material, I refuse to smoke them anymore.

I would be happy to take them off your hands.....only semi kidding

Don Fernando · 08-28-2011, 12:52 AM

They are long gone.

irratebass · 08-28-2011, 07:51 AM

HA HA, I guess so......I didn't even see the dates of these posts...

....I'll just be over here, don't mind me.

I picked the new punch up yesterday, it's awesome. Big ups to the Dutch distributer of Davidoff and the B&M owner of The Saloon Almere

Now THAT is CS, they didn't even sell you the punch and are making the situation right. A few bucks for a punch vs a likely long-time customer.......isn't that a no brainer?
