Messaging sleep mode

How do I turn Airbnb messages off after a certain time? 
For the last month I haven’t slept because discourteous guests AND AIRBNB think it’s necessary and appropriate to wake me up at all hours of the night.


I can’t take it anymore!

 

I want to run this like a bank! No discussions after 6pm or before 8am! 

I understand that I might lose money! But this has gotten out of control! 

rude guests and Airbnb based in different time zones are ruining my life! 

please help!

Just set your phone so you don't receive messages during these hours apart from key family or friends. Or get a separate work phone as your Airbnb contact number and turn it off outside your office hours @Leah50 

Can someone tell me how to set my calendar for 30 days or more.  My nightly fee won't go away

@Leah50  It's called "do not disturb" and you set it up on your own phone. Why blame AirBnB? 

Why defend airbnb? They don’t care about you or your property. The support center is oversees and hedge fund managers are buy up houses everywhere they can to get rid of homeowners, like you and me. We either stick together or help sink the ship. 

No need for attitude.

Honestly, the designated Airbnb phone is the best idea yet! It’s healthy/professional to separate personal from business. 
thanks @Helen3 !

@Leah5 Make it clear that checkin times finish at a certain time and then snooze your phone and check any over night bookings in the morning. Many people book late at night . fact . H

@Leah50 Not defending AirBnB, simply stating the facts: You have control over this at your fingertips, but you're blaming AirBnB. AND ranting about hedge fund managers and conspiracies. 

 

Now that's attitude.
