When you block you calendar and make a note of another booking and you get another booking confirmation

Dear Community Hosts

 

Has anyone experienced the following issues. This has happened to e twice and has impacted on my Super host rating and disappointed potential guests

 

I have linked my Airbnb and Vbro  booking sites to auto fill each other's calendar when a booking comes through. As a precaution I go into Airbnb calendar ( this is where the issues seem to arise) and manually check and update my calendar if the system has not synched the outside booking.

Recently I had a cancellation from an Airbnb guests for an upcoming booking. Minutes later I received  a reservation request from another booking site ( I only use two booking sites  and the main bookings are from Airbnb)  so I accepted the new request and manually blocked my Airbnb calendar making a note regarding the booking I had received from another site. To my surprise I received a new reservation for that same period from Airbnb two  hours later. 

 

I find it really hard to get on to Airbnb so I thought I would run this by you.  I have sent Airbnb  guests a request to change the dates with an offer of a complimentary extra night and explained why.

 

How. can I raise this efficiently with Airbnb, like does anyone have their phone contact number or  direct email address and have any other hosts experienced this

 

Thank you very much for your time

 

Kind Regards

 

Michele

Hi @Michele6

 

I'm sorry to hear you've had some problems with your calendar! In case you haven't been able to reach out to customer service yet, we've got a really handy guide here on how to do so. They should be able to look into what's going on with you and hopefully find a solution. 🙂

 

Thanks, 

 

Emilie
