Verifying a guest

Hi all, 

I accepted a booking request, but the guest have just opened an account with airbnb and is not verified. 

I have now changed the settings to only take booking from verified guests, but don't know if it's applicable to a booking that was already made. 

Any other tip to deal with this? 

Thanks and regards, 

 

Juan

Hi = no it will only apply to future guests. \

 

If you wish you can ask the guest to go through verification, but of course can't demand that they do.

 

On a positive note, I assume  you were comfortable enough with the email exchange to allow the booking to proceed. So, I am sure it will be fine.
