hello everybody, I am now in same situation reagarding a cancellation due to guest extenuating circumstance.
the guest has cancelled himself before check in.
i have informed him that as per our policy no refund are possible.
week after i receive message from support explaining that because of extenuating circumstance they have to take back the reservation amount.
i discussed with airbnb support, case manager, explaining that in their terms and service it is not stipulated that the host is responsible to refund.
Airbnb support has willing to stop the discussion, without explaning to me their decision, and mainly showing to me where in the terms and services it is written that the host is responsible to refund the guest in such case???
The support has written that they will disengage from discussion.....
host has contractual agreement with airbnb, not with the guest. the host should not be involved in decision between the host and the guest.
Airbnb do not respect their agreement with the host
I am writting a letter to airbnb, reayd soon to be send by DHL
see you
David
