Flash Wipes falling apart!

Hi,

Has anyone else bought Flash Wipes of any type which say "stronger and softer" than previous wipes yet they fall apart under normal usage?
I have got nowhere by calling them on 0800 028 3292.
Please let me know/ call them as this clearly is a rip-off, they might be softer but they certainly aren't stronger when you need to use two at a time!

    Are they any better than normal toilet paper?

    I feel sorry for the OP's bum if they are using Flash wipes as toilet paper :o

    I think maninthestreet meant do they dissolve like toilet paper when wet. It does clearly state not to use them for personal hygiene!

    But if you were 'just cleaning the sides' they wouldn't fall apart.

    Well...I do find them flimsy but not to the point where they fall apart
    Happy :)
