Lion Dates Complaints & Reviews

I purchased Lion dates from a departmental store in vellore on Aug 30, 2014. The dates quality was not the same as usual. The dates were loosely packed and smelt and tasted like medicine. Please take necessary action to maintain the consistency in the product quality.

I bought 500gm lion dates from Nilgiri supermarket, brigade road, Bangalore on may 25th 2014. It is written on the container manufacturing date march 2014. Expiry date within 6 months. Just 2 weeks before I opened the container there are many live insects inside.

Hi bought LION Arabian dates, they have mentioned that these are imported., But actually they are mixing local dates and adding only 25% of arabian dates and selling. This is a huge fraud and they are selling for buy one get one free at such a high price. Please do necessary action

Dear Sir, I purchased at Big Bazaar under the scheme BUY ONE AND GET ONE. I opened one of the packets and found a big stone, Is this the way of offering BUY ONE AND GET ONE? I feel really shocked to note such an activity of your company and wondering as to why I can not publish in News Paper and bring it in face book, twitter etc. It clearly indicates that this is not a genuine way of doing business.Iam going to report this matter to ISO also K.R.Natarajan. A mail was flashed to [protected]@futuregroup.com and to [protected]@liondates.com. Today one of your sales officer [protected] casually asking for the problem faced. It is quite shocking to note the speed of attending to customer complaint. He was perhaps told by M/S. Menaka to contact my mobile without appraising him the event. Can I have your quality policy? I am at [protected]@gmail.com

I purchased a packet of Lion dates and when i opened the packet to eat it, i found a worm crawling inside. The packet was completely sealed before that. The manufacturing date is feb 2014 and it says best before 12 months from manufacturing and now its just may 2014. What kind of food quality standards are these?

Sir,
I bought a Dates Packet of Lion Dates which is packed on 28 aug 2013 batch No:0505.
But when I opened the same it seems very un hygienically packed with many insects inside the packet,
After that I have made a compliant mail to Lion Dates, the Reply was too casual, that they are ready to offer me a New packet for free of cost, I am not that much low migrant to buy a free/ sample packet from LION Dates,
I must get a loyal action

Dear Sir,

On 26.02.2012, I have purchased Lion Dates Pack of 500 g from More Out let of Sirsi taluk, Uttara Kannada District, Karnataka state. When I opened the pack for consumption, I got chicken feather in that pack.

Before one year also i have experienced same kind of violation of quality standards when I purchased Lion dates syrup from Food Camp, C.P Bazar, Sirsi, Uttara Kannada district, Karnataka State. That time i found uncountable ants in that syrup bottle.

The company is ISO 9001:2008 certified company and it is clear that the company is not following quality standards. Thus it is voilating the quality standards and cheating the consumers.

Hence please take appropriate action against the company.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi
I am consumer of lion dates from Bangalore. I purchased the liondates pack from Food World, BTM layout 2nd stage, Bangalore. I got the deseeded dates 2weeks back. I am surprised to see it full of seeds. 1 or 2 seeds is acceptable. But its not a deseeded one. Full of seeds. This is cheating from Lion dates. How did lion dates got ISO certification? For more information contact me on [protected]. I want to complain on the lion dates on this issue. Please help.

Sir,

I purchased a Lion dates packet batch no : AUG 2011/SD 78 OF 500 GRAMS.The shop owner gave me one more packet of the same batchno as free. He told me that the scheme was from the co. But how horrible it is after opening a back. The Dates are far from edible conditions. It is so worst even a street vendor keeps the dates in a good quality. It is surprising that how the ISO certification has been awarded to such co.,. Both packets are of no use. Pl write to the co., for explanation.

I have bought 200 grams Lion brand deseeded dates with batch no. D413 Pkd Dt: Mar'2011 on 12th Apr'2011 from a retailer L.R.Stores @ Adambakkam, Chennai. When I have opened it & started eating along with my 5 year & 2 year old children, i found live bugs & worms running on those dates and got shocked & upset. Immly. took my children to the wash room & asked them to spit it & clean their mouth.

How was the ISO 9001:2008 was certified to this company "LION DATES IMPEX PVT LTD.,27/3, Cauvery Road, Trichy-620 002. India. without checking the complete process of food processing & packaging.

Do we need to assume that this ISO body is also corruped?

Please do take necessary action on top priority & save mankind for god's sake.

I purchased a packet of lion dates from Triveni Super Market, Statue Trivandrum. When I opened the packet and took it for eating I got the body of a big dead fly from it. I doubt the cleanliness and the standards followed by the company.

This brand of dates ia very popular and a lot of people trust their produts in Kerala. So I think they need to keep maintain the cleanliness of their product
