Can a guest whom I did not pre-approve of automatically book a reservation?
This is what the suggested article says about pre-approval:
"A pre-approval is a way for host to let guests know that their listing is available when asked about a potential reservation. Once pre-approved, the guest can automatically confirm a booking for the specific dates provided."
So, what should we assume about a guest that I did NOT pre-approve? That they can't automatically confirm a booking!
Yet, I did not pre-approve this reservation, and somehow they were automatically booked!
Please, help me resolve this issue and tell me why did I receive a cancellation penalty, when I never approved of this reservation in the first place.
Thanks,
Idan
