I am really upset I have been taken off super host status- the booking that I cancelled was to allow the a guest to rebook as they made an error when booking! This is such a shame! Anyone have any ideas whether this can be revoked?
Try to contact Airbnb through the help page and see if they can manually do that for you. What kind of error did your guest make from the reservation? You should be able to alter the booking so that there aren't any repercussions (this can only be done through PC, not the mobile app).

@Sarah97 When you contact Airbnb as @Marcus0 and @Julia53 suggest, remind them that their help article says that hosts are allowed 1 penalty free cancellation each 6 months. Here's the article where it says that:
