@William1337 

 

 The best advice I can give you is to contact AirBNB every day for that issue with your ticket number.

 

and keep a detailed  log of every call or chat and email communication.

 

and ensure you full up with patience before contacting them

 

good luck

Air BNB has replied but is offering only a travel voucher and refuses a cash refund .   We do not wish a travel voucher but want a refund. The ticket number is **  for receipt.

 

can you help?

Received another response that said as a credit voucher was chosen it cannot be changed.    We were not asked what we wanted we were sent this credit voucher. I have no idea what they are doing but will be very reluctant to recommend or use AirBnB again

@William1337,

First, look up Canadian consumer law regarding merchant travel cancellations.  If it states that consumers are entitled to a refund to the original form of payment, you can inform Airbnb of this, or you can just contact your credit card company to process a charge back.

@William1337 I would start preparing a small claims court case as allowed by the terms and conditions. If Airbnb cancelled the reservation I can't see any reason why they think they can keep the money especially as it has not been sent to the host.

I am feeling so helpless and do not know what to do. Air bnb cancelled my reservation NOT ME and I am out $600!!!! I am been working on this for MONTHS. I filed a complaint, filed a resolution request, email, called and nothing. I never cancelled my reservation, air bnb did and now I am the one getting punished. I might have to go to small court claims. Does anyone have any suggestions?
