Hi @Kristijan2, this is a community forum, no staff here sorry. Not really sure what happened, I take it you are the host? Or are you the guest, you say you ''helped host?'' Yes, as per terms and conditions the host will pay a penalty which gets larger the closer to the date. This is to protect the guests from having their bookings cancelled which makes for very unhappy guests. And guests is what we all want.

Did the guest ask you to cancel, was something wrong? You will have to take the message history with the guest and show it to Airbnb, they might well waive the penalties if that is the case and you are new and have not read any of the contract with Air. I do recommend that you familiarise yourself with the processes as cancelling as a host is the worst thing you can do, well almost.

Here are 3 easy ways to contact Airbnb:

Airbnb Community Experts
Via Twitter Direct Message @Airbnbhelp
Calling Airbnb
1. Contacting Airbnb's Community Experts

The easiest and quickest way to get answers to any issues is through contacting Airbnb's Community Experts. If they cannot answer your question, they have the ability to re-route you to Airbnb

Step 1: Visit https://www.airbnb.ca/help/contact_us

Step 2: From the bottom of the screen, choose either "My question is about something else" or "I have a different issue"

Step 3: Follow the prompts to figure out what best describes your issues. Some things you choose will take you to specific information whereas others you can fill in the text box and submit your question.

When you submit a question, you can expect an answer back from a Community Expert within five minutes but usually less. If the Community Expert cannot help you, they can re-route your issue to Airbnb who will then contact you. Airbnb Community Experts do not have access to your account information so if it is a question that can only be answered with account information, they will re-route you automatically. Airbnb Community Experts are available 24/7 and again, usually you will have an answer from them within minutes.

2. Contacting Airbnb Via Twitter

I find the second best and easiest way to contact Airbnb regarding any issues I may be having is by using Twitter. Airbnb seems to have dedicated staff who monitor their Twitter feeds and I usually hear back from them within 5-10 minutes of posting my isssue.

Step 1: Log into Twitter

Step 2: Search for @Airbnbhelp and choose "Follow" them

Step 3: Send a Direct Message (DM) explaining your issue and wait for their response. They may ask for information such as your listing but always provide it over DM so it is not public.

3. Calling Airbnb's Customer Experience Line

Sandra thank you very much for your help

Chirstian I understand that the guest asked you to cancel on their behalf. You should never do that because it looks like you are the one who no longer wants to host. You get into so much worry and trouble for nothing. Instead you should always ask your guest to cancel themselves, same way that they booked. It is not that hard.

Hope you are lucky resolving this!
