London, New Airbnb systems - resulted in renaming smaller areas such as Southfields as The Borough of Wandsworth or Wandsworth: not getting bookings as a result ? ๐Ÿค”

i have neen told by Airbnb that theu hace xhanged their systems recently andx2 thongs have happened to my listing as a result :.

1. They have moved my house to a different location

2. Moved a different property to my location

3. Renamed my area / listing as  Wandsworth (which is a huge Borough of 320 000 people versus 24 000 that represents Southfields where I am based

(Yet haven't renamed any other district under a Borough name.)

Confusing as no-one apart from those staying specifically in Wandsworth Town know or look up Wandsworrh as a placexto stay. For others , it looks like a " different " geographic area versus an eare that includes "villages ' / areas such as,Southfields, Putney, parts of Wimbledon etc.

 

Result - I am suddenly not  getting bookings and I am usually fully booked. 

 

Any one else experiencing difficulties in the Wimbledon,  Southfields areas

Hi @Margaret1285, Did you happen to get in touch with Airbnb Customer Support to enquire further?

 

I am also reaching out to our Hosts @Mike-And-Jane0 @Helen3 if they have a slight idea or their valued advice for you!
