Pending notification bubble but no new notification

[Amanda12]

So on both my desktop site and the app, I have a little notification (the number 1 in a red circle), which in the past meant I needed to look at a message or reservation. However, it's been on for a few weeks now but there is no new message or reservation or review request to be found. Absolutely nothing new, just the notification. 

I restarted my phone, even re-downloaded the app, cleared and reset my notification settings (they're set only to "Notify me when someone makes or changes a reservation" or "Notify me when someone messages"); the little red circle is still there.

Any ideas what else I should check?

My husband and I are having the same issue on both of our phones. We called AirBnB and they said they were having issues with their app.

Same I rang they said trouble with app 

but I have number 9 on desktop near App for over a month with no messages 

same story after phone call trouble with the app

How did you call anyone at Airbnb?  

[Megan33]

Same problem here. And now I do not receive the notification sound either. Makes it hard to host.

I've been wondering the same thing.  I have "5" in my little bubble and it's driving me crazy!  Hopefully somebody out there knows the answer.

Did any of you read my response?

[Stacey26]

Do you have the answer

OK... Me too... Just thought I was not opening something and that is why it remained.
I have done everything twice and still cannot get rid of pesky bubble. You are not alone! Connie

[Alexander79]

Same. Am I not responding to something?

[Fiona74]

Same here! And it's driving me crazy too. I'm on the verge of deleting the app just to get rid of the bubble though I need to use it soon.

Omg! I thought it was my phone! It's driving me crazy! (OCD here).
What's worse, I constantly have to open to app to see if there's something new coz the notification update has some problems too. Grrrrr. Hope they fix it soon. I updated the app today (sept 14th) and it didn't get fixed apparently.

I think it's counting active inquiries. Where you have special offers out or have not declined.
