Verification 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 !

Charged for damages to furniture already faulty My son spent an evening sitting in an old faux leather chair and to our surprise, when he got up, the finish had disintegrated like tissue paper, peeled beneath his rear end and fell to the floor. Despite my having explained to the host what had happened days before checking out, she decided to gouge me for payment. Airbnb decided to side with the host, demanding $400CAD for a chair worth about $150 new at Walmart. They’ve threatened to charge my card, which I’m unable to remove, and I’ve threatened to take them to court if they do, insisting that furniture, at the very least, should be able to be used as intended without it falling to pieces. I am unable to leave a poor review on the host site without running the risk of them giving me the same. This makes me question the validity of reviews in general. The whole ordeal has left a bad taste in my mouth, and I will never book through Airbnb again.

Unaware that I had to be over 18 to… Unaware that I had to be over 18 to make am airbnb account, I made a reservation. Airbnb charged me then deleted my account despite being under-age and unable to make a reservation.. how does that work?? Then a refund is issued in 15 days!!! That's half a month. What is this?. Don't charge me in the first place

Biased handling of conflicts between guests and owners The customer service representative called Earl removed my rating of a property whose owner yelled at me and threatened to "throw my ass out" of the property. If a guest is abused, they silence him for speaking up.

Horrible service for hosts !! Horrible service for hosts !!! Within about 2 month pay-out not send! Airbnb not send $3900 of past reservations. I calling 2-3 times per week for nothing .Every time hey apologize for inconveniences and send messages to other department.Today I received message that they apologize again and started investigation on engineering department but cant even tel me when they will send money .Probably Airbnb get to bankruptcy???
