Just running a flag up the pole, and thinking about writing to the US Securities and Exchange Commission about factual information in Airbnb's up-coming prospectus as well as issues hosts would like to see fixed prior to going public.
Information Integrity:
Main concern at present is the presentation of the company to potential investors as a home-sharing platform (which if recent indications are reliable, is how the company plans to market itself to investors).
Identifying on the listing page authentic local hosts vs non-resident/remote property managers.
Wishlist:
Guest review rating system overhaul, so that anything less than 5 stars stops being a fail.
Outlier guest reviews being removed.
Fairness to hosts when guests complain about non-issues and get a full refund.
Damages to property - applying the security deposit.
Host control of all refunds, regardless of reason.
Anyone have other suggestions to make?
