RUIt is impossible to correct an unfair… It is impossible to correct an unfair review on Airbnb. I have written to them to challenge a hosts review but they have simply not replied. Fortunately there are now competing services like Vrbo which I can switch to since they don't seem to value me as a customer

GBVerification an absolute nightmare I am a new user to Airbnb but I am unable to become a verified user and can't therefore make a booking. As someone who does not drive and therefore does not have a driving licence and as someone whose passport has expired I am unable to get verification. There is no other way to become verified ir would seem. I am cross that when trying to find a way to become verified Airbnb chat does not listen to the fact that I am in the UK and therefore do not have an identity card or biometric ID. I feel I am being discriminated against for not being a driver or an overseas traveller. They are unwilling to help me become verified by providing other of ID eg bank details, bills, taxation details etc Very inflexible !

GBCompany Reviews are a complete fix Writing on behalf of my other half, as he’s too nice to rate Airbnb. It seems like it’s a complete fix. They like to keep their Hosts looking like they are 5 Star, by either removing the lesser ratings or by hiding them. Please look at the number of reviews against counted/actual shown ones. Invariably the reviews do not add up.

GBallow scammers and not helpful I am in Costa rica for vacation I rented a room after check in I found that no electricity and water most of the time. I asked Airbnb for a refund but they are not helpful at all and ignored my request. Next rent was a scam host, it was not even room was a camps I couldn’t sleep because the noise and very dirty, the issue Airbnb allow the hosts to re-listing again so the host keep removing the listing after bad reviews. Totally scam! We should try something else than airbnb! They stand with hostess!!! Adam

GBHost suddenly requested deposit, Airbnb DONT CARE The host manager suddenly asked for a cash deposit when we just arrived. This was not stated anywhere in the listing. When we refused, the manager became agressive and being very rude claiming they have lawyer bla bla bla. I was not interested in staying with them anymore as it's not as described in listing and the service super poor. So I opened a case with Aribnb who kept closing it and not letting me to cancel the stay for a refund. Worst holiday ever. Airbnb only cares the monies but not their policy Or srvice provided by the hosts! I'd now only book through hotels or resorts who would actually provide a genuine customer service than those host who are hostile to guests, worrying guests going to break or take away their 'assest' in the property. It only makes guests' stay very uncomfortable and ruining our holiday. For hosts who can't afford the risk to let out the property, just don't then. (BTW, At the last day of the stay, the host 'transferred' us our deposit, and sent us a screenshot and claimed the money will be back to our bank in the next few days. Waited for a week and nothing appeared, so I chased him Daily until he actually made the transfer. FULL OF SCAMMERS on airbnb!!)
