Was wondering who on here has used them and their thoughts.
I ordered 5 x 5kg bags of hemp/corn mix for it to rock up today. All 5 bags are basically just hemp with half a cup of corn literally not even half a tin and they all weigh between 3.4kg - 3.7kg a bag instead of 5kg.
Absolutely shocking. Would love to know if I was just unlucky or if they are just taking advantage of people at will

So just to add to this thread. I complained about the amount of corn and weight of bags and had a reply back saying that it states on the ad 400g of corn and hemp is the more expensive item I should just add more corn. Also my scales arent calibrated.
So looking at their website I noticed all of a sudden additional wording was added to the item in line with 400g of corn only. It was displayed on one item for sale not the second variant of same product with a bucket. When I refreshed the page it was then displayed on the 2nd item too so they literally added the description to their website after I complained to cover their shoddy product.
I also pointed out that I tested 2 x scales and that 3 bags was within tolerance of 5kg and 2 bags was under 4kg so if this is the case they severely gave me too much hemp
My honest opinion avoid as man how dishonest can you be

I understand that they've had quite a few issues in the past with customer dissatisfaction. I don't think particles are a worthy business model all in all, there always seems to be one problem or another with them all.

I had issues with Impact Particle in the past with long delays in delivery and their packaging was woeful. That being said what was delivered was a decent product and as described.
Kent Particles are a con. The fact they would literally change their website description as soon as someone complains to cover the product they shipped out is absolutely shocking. Caught right in the act as well. I wondered how I could miss such a bald statement only for it to appear on the 2nd item after a refresh miraculously
O well life lesson learned. The £80 spent wont affect me hopefully this post would stop others from making the same mistake as I did.

Do your own mate it's a no brainer.
I just cook up what I need when I need it either in the burco or in the huge stock pan and burner I have

rumbled by mike wilmott wasn't it?
someone rang him & asked why the B5 they had bought from them had changed & he realised that they had never bought anything from him or even contacted him - LOL

Nutrabaits as well. But that might of been the bait & feed. Heavily cut basemix to increase profit margin.. Naughty.. don't think they recovered after that. Disappeared of the radar pretty quickly..

Funny as I was going to put an order in with Norfolk particle but no one but Kent Particles does hemp and corn. All do hemp and maze and I prefer corn. Well now I have ended up with just hemp

The only way to get top quality particles is to do your own. Far too many people have problems with these companies

Why not support your local tackleshop. If you can't or don't want to prepare your own. Assuming you have a local tackleshop. I'm sure they will be more than willing to prepare what ever you want. Most shops have been knocking out hemp for the match boys for years. Just a thought..
