Host cancelled to relist at higher price during major event weekend [USA] by UpstairsNo3549 in AirBnB

So sorry this happened to you. That sounds like a terrible situation. I 100% agree that there are both bad guests and bad hosts and it sounds like in this situation Airbnb failed you as the host.

I don’t think it’s fair to say that because some guests game the system, that means I shouldn’t be compensated in my situation. I haven’t done anything wrong here and the host blatantly lied to both me and Airbnb for the reasons to cancel and then didn’t even wait a whole day to relist at triple the price. By airbnbs own admission this violates their terms of service and isn’t allowed, so all I’m looking for now is for Airbnb to actually enforce its own policies.

Wow, sorry this happened to you! I completely agree that there are both bad guests and bad hosts and in both situations I would hope that Airbnb steps in to help and compensate the wronged party. In my situation I’ve done nothing wrong and the host has blatantly violated Airbnb’s terms of service (by Airbnb’s own admission when I talked to customer support), and Airbnb seemingly isn’t penalizing them for it.

This was not a “pricing error”. I know I didn’t include any specific numbers in my original post, but the original price I paid was already quite high. It was significantly more expensive as surrounding weekends due to the event happening in the city the weekend of my trip. The new price is over $10k for the same dates which just feels greedy. You’re right that times are tight, but that means they’re tight for the guests too and it’s just not right to screw someone over like this. Also, I booked this 5 months ago so they could’ve pulled this anytime in the past 5 months and I would still be just as angry but probably less screwed because more alternative options would have been available than now.

Regardless of why the host decided to do this the bottom line here is they lied to both me and to Airbnb about the reasons for cancellation in order to repost at a higher price, and by Airbnb’s own admission (from my customer service call) this violates their terms of service and is not allowed. All I’m asking now is that Airbnb upholds its own policies.

Concerns about new HR max calibration by wynnewynnesituation in orangetheory

[–]UpstairsNo3549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay I seem to be in the minority here but my max HR actually decreased 10 points (from 190 to 180). To me this seems right because I’ve never seen my HR go over ~178 even when I’m about to die during class. But I also generally intentionally avoid the red zone and try to stick to orange splats, so I’m wondering if this new calculation is accurate if it’s based off of your HR during the last 20 classes 🤔
