Has anyone had a booking that applied a Low Demand Promotion???
Tonight someone rented by Airbnb, for the first time since COVID hit. Not only did it list her check in time as 8 a.m. (since I have listed my place it has always been 4 p.m. check in, but charged $14 per night!!!, instead of the $70. Together with the additional cost of cleaning supplies and the cleaning company fees due to COVID I will end up needing to pay forward money to have this person stay there.
I immediately called airbnb to seek assistance and was told someone would get back to me, but they could not guarantee anyone gets back to me before the person is supposed to check in, which let's be honest is ridiculous. So Airbnb cancelled all of my reservations for March and April, gave me less than 5% of what I was supposed to make and now have some promotion that I am meant to bear the brunt of? I never agreed to this and I do not use smart pricing. I also do not want to cancel and risk losing my superhost status, but at this point I am likely to start using another booking service going forward anyway, Airbnb keeps showing they just do NOT care about hosts, which is actually their entire business since they do not own any property.
Any help before this person checks in is very much appreciated!!
