            I returned a bag to clynk, that had exactly 100 bottles in it. I was given a credit of $3.85. This is the third bag in a row, which I have counted the bottle in it to 100, that has not been credited correctly. All bottles are NYS return. The most recent transaction happened on May 4, 2024.

            The customer has to purchase the cheap quality bags from that almost always rip even when not filled to capacity! We started using our own tear proof bags and Clink stopped giving us credit for the contents! Clink say they only make money when they redeem your bottles from their vendors but I think they're in the bag business. Too bad Hannaford stores are affiliated with Clink....kind of makes you feel you can't trust the store!

            07/15/2024

            ******, Thank you for your feedback. All bags are purchased and sold by Hannaford Supermarkets. CLYNK does not gain anything financially with regards to bags sales. We understand the concerns with the durability of the bag and are trying to make corrections. A new size of bag will be introduced to help minimize the weight of containers returned. We hope this will make a difference. We certainly appreciate your feedback. ****************.
