Hi @Glen23
It's sooo frustrating isn't it? What I find particularly concerning is that what the customer receives adn what the host recevies are different - so as a host, you have absolutley no idea there is a problem and think it's the guests just not reading things properly. (Personally I got internally pretty hostile with a guest who blithely announced he was arriving at 10 am - influenced the whole tenor of his stay - it wasn't until weeks later another guest told me what their info from airbnb said and I began to join the dots.....)
In terms of fixing it, based on my experience, you need to ring CS and explain very clearly.
The fact that you have a screenshot as proof will help enormously I should think ( CS just kept looking at my settings telling me everything looked fine)
CS will refer to IT help and you will never hear from them again.
CS will not close the case, so you will not get an email asking how satisfied you were with your "help" ( this is me beging cynical, but I have repeatedly noticed these emails dont' appear when CS haven't been able to resolve - to ensure their satisfactions ratings stay very high I have no doubt)
It will eventually get fixed- with me I think it was within a couple of days but you won't know when or how - no one will contact you- and you can't check yourself because it's only happening at your guests end - you'll probably just notice via your guests when their messages etc go back to "normal"
With me, as well as the wrong check in time, all of my pre booking message/questions also vanished. I am no IT expert, but I strongly suspect all the tinkering that is going on with the prebooking questions - (which are being eliminated) and pre booking message is what has caused this - it's all in the same area and some weird IT programming flow on effect has occurred I'm pretty sure.
Good luck and let me know how you go!
Cheers
In hindsight I should have asked CS to ring my guests and explain to them that the checkin info they were recieving was not my error as the host, but a technical difficulty. My concern is the event made me look very unprofessional and half baked to my guests, and made my guests appear disorganised /incompetent /arrogant to me. I have found CS to be marvellous re contacting guests and pointing them in the right direction - they are very helpful when the problem is within their scope.
Let me know how you go and good luck.
