This, I believe, is the most common questions on the Community Center. Below is a "How To" guide on contacting Airbnb.
3 easy ways to contact 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 Specialist who will have the notes of the conversation you had with the Expert and can usually solve your question. Please be kind to these Experts as they are not employees of Airbnb and do give their time to assist you in resolving your issue.
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".
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. Keep trying until you find something that lets you enter your question into a text box. If you see the box that says "I still need help" at the bottom of the screen, choose that and enter your information. If the choice you made has nothing to do with your question, please just describe this first and the Expert will still help you.
Once you choose the "I still need help" button, you will get a text box which allows you to enter your information.
When you submit a question, you can expect an answer back from an Airbnb 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 have some access to your reservation information but 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

Hopefully this help guide helps you to contact Airbnb for any of your issues.
Community Help GuidesHere is how you can Contact Airbnb!
Thank you for this guide. It is almost unbelivable that Airbnb cannot be directly and easily contacted by the people thanks to whom they make money...
I agree...I filed a complaint on June 1st, have called them a dozen times and all I get is a message saying your issue is being handled but I never get to speak to anyone about it. Just terrible!!!
I am having the same issue. A guest damaged my place and I am just getting the runaround from AirBnB for over 2 weeks now.
I am actually quite scared now having read all this complaint about the AirBnB customer service and then trying to contact them myself. This is so unlike Booking.com and Travalgo who offer direct customer service and superb service if I may add. I have sent 3 emails today and made 4 calls to the numbers given and so far no success. I am at a loss as to how such poor service can be had in this day of technology.
Worried owner.
Yeah... same here... Quite scary to see how HARD it is to even get a hope of even reaching anyone, let alone "solving" the issues... Innovators Dilemna.
The only exception is that for example booking.com don't really care about hosts and they don't really resolve your issue with hosts (e.g.: damaging property).
I'm experiencing that right now. I'm livid!
Livid just about describes me right now too lol. And by the looks of it, MANY of us are very upset about the exact same issues and nobody to help us. Our issues are being pushed aside and not handled! I am trying to figure out some news or media company to reach out to so that Airbnb will actually HAVE to address this lol.
In the midst of dealing with any homeowner's worst nightmare right now - someone who was a guest of the property who would not leave and is now renting out the ENTIRE house (a $500k house in CO) on Airbnb. We contacted them over 10 days ago via the phone # listed here AND Twitter DM to Airbnb Help. Only to be told to please be patient and a "Support Ambassador" would be in contact. NO CONTACT for 10 days except for when we have called to ask to speak to a manager. Only to be told that someone who specializes will reach out within 24-48 hrs, but no one ever does. Strangers are now living in the house, got their personal and business mail redirected to the house - all because Airbnb allowed some random person to create an account, snap some pics of the house they were a guest in, and now won't leave. An eviction process has began but in the meantime we expected Airbnb to respond to this and remove the listing as this person is illegally profiting on a home they have no ownership rights over. THIS IS INSANE THAT A PLATFORM WILL ALLOW ANYONE TO RENT AN ENTIRE HOUSE WITH NO PROOF OF HOME OWNERSHIP. Anyone else as frustrated as us should email airbnbisnohelp@gmail.com Perhaps a class action lawsuit will change this negligent business practice.
Agreed that it's ridiculous it's so difficult (and maybe not even possible) to email airbnb! I have navigated the "help" topics many times without being given the option to email customer service. If Airbnb won't offer convenient and responsive customer support to it's hosts & travelers, another company will.
yes, we want a airbnb to remove a bad comment that has caused as to lose business.
the guest was lying - we asked airbnb to please remove the posting as it has cost us lost business.
