If you are bothered, report the hosts profile and give Airbnb a call @Kenneth12
As someone just noted in another thread, the options on profile reporting never seem appropriate to most situations, or likely to get anywhere.
"Something else?" followed by
They collect fees or deposits outside of Airbnb
My host is asking me to cancel
I’m concerned they’re hosting in my neighborhood
Something on this page is broken
do any of those sound promising, in getting anywhere? And call? Egads, that's going to be at least a quarter hour of my billable time lost. (And have you read what people say about how reliable, consistent and proactive Airbnb's phone support is?)

Maybe they have only just lost their status and forgot to change the title.
That is definitely not the case; are you accusing me of a lack of due diligence?
We also have plenty of hosts gaming the search results system, by putting in nightly prices such as $9 for short periods when their rules will not allow booking, and thus showing up first in price-filtered results.
