Recently i have found airbnb making arbitrary decisions without following their own processes.
1. A guest left a listing because they claimed it was riddled with mold (3 year old cottage there was no mold) and although i replied within minutes of them letting me know and offering another cottage they left regardless.
Airbnb subsequently gave them a full refund and i had to go to two case managers to get it reversed as 1. I proved there claim was false and 2. guests have to give hosts a hour to rectify any issues which i did offer to rectify within 5 minutes but they still left.
Atm(THIS ISSUE) i have 5 listings suspended with a email saying someone will back to me in 2 days or so to discuss the mater, note the complaint was made against one cottage only so 4 others in different parts of the country should not be suspended.
The only explanation i got was that one guest had claimed i had a camera facing a bedroom which is false they are outside facing driveway. This guest also asked for a free stay based on a minor 5 minute cleaning issue and subsequently punished me with all 1's my first ever and outrages review claiming all sorts of lies and nonsense inc i threatened them they were afraid in the home at night, etc etc which airbnb did not remove despite my appeal.
I rang the airbnb support number but they told me its a different team and that you cannot contact them directly and they will get back to you when they can.
Has anyone heard of this or can offer some advice, ideally a senior person hear could assist or someone connected to airbnb in this area.
I find that unless your a superhost you get substanded support despite the number of bookings i sit just below superhost status which im ok with but surely large volume hosts should also get decent support which im finding i don't. Oh i host in Australia
