Unbelievable…Last spring, after an uninterrupted designation of Superhost for over 5 years, they pulled my Superhost because of a cancellation I did (my only one ever) 6 months before. It was never reinstated despite all the horrible stuff I went through AFTER the ‘roll out’. Lost bookings due to their incredible stupidity (they 'accidently' cancelled 13 of my bookings because they 'accidently' located me in New York City instead of rural Tennessee), my listing was ‘hidden’ by their ‘new plan’ after always being on the first page of my area’s ‘type’ (cabin, mountains, hiking, seclusion, etc), price changing without me doing so, and on and on. So without bookings, and exhaustion from dealing with them, I moved up my retirement 6 months. Cancelled my listing September 1…after my last booking (which came about before the ‘new deal’…)
Then just a few days ago I got an email congratulating me on achieving ALL ‘the goals’ needed to achieve Superhost status. 6 weeks after my last guest and 6 weeks after I cancelled my once always booked, popular listing…coincidence??? hmmmm…anyway thought I’d provide a chuckle midweek…
