@Beth235 Unfortunately, that's how Airbnb Customer Service works these days. You can phone in 5 times in a day, get through to several different offshore call-centres, and be given 5 conflicting answers to your question.
Last time I called CX, first call went through to the Philippines. Spoke (or tried to!) with a very pleasant-sounding young lady, but we couldn't understand a word each other said, so I gave up. Second call went through to Romania, but the phone lines were so bad that communication was impossible. Third call was picked up by lovely CX agent in Portugal. Clear phone line, we understood each other perfectly - but the poor lad was clueless on Airbnb policies (not his fault, Airbnb routinely fails to update their customer service departments on policy/practice changes, and leaves them completely in the dark)
So, I had half my morning wasted, and still no answers. The irony is, Airbnb's non-US HQ is just down the road from me here in Dublin, and we're constantly hearing about the 500 staff they employ. None of them ever seem to answer the phones anymore though!
As for the verified ID issue - absolutely no point in calling Airbnb about this, as the verification is not actually done by Airbnb at all, but is outsourced to a rather controversial third-party outfit called Jumio.
Hope you got sorted in the end anyway!
