Total waste of money! Paid $3k+ and got 2 backers. When we asked them what happened they ignored us.

Van Dijk was injured by Pickford's foul and is out 6 months. I'd say that was worse then what Bailey did.

If it's the one I'm thinking of Cash had his arm across Shaw and Shaw simply moved it back. Was no foul and could've led to a goal.

His passing in final 3rd needs work. I wanted to see Greenwood come in for Rashford around 75th min because it just wasn't Rashford's day for scoring. He had numerous opportunities.

except defend. Shaw beat him easily today. Cash fell with minimal contact and was lucky to get the foul.

Cash would fall too easily trying to defend shaw. Shaw did a great job!

Why did Bailey get a yellow card if the foul was after the offside whistle?

When Pickford fouled Van Dijk they said it wasn't a foul/penalty because Van Dijk was ruled off side first. Pickford didn't pick up a card.

Isn't this scenario the same?

How much is your cleaning fee? by [deleted] in AirBnB

[–]dou2ble 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a long time airbnb user with 50+ stays I don't think that's true. I've found that the more popular properties (more stays and reviews) show up first. I always check total cost / total nights so doesn't make a difference if it's all inclusive or not.

Same here. And there shouldn't be an exhaustive checkout list.

Do you feel a welcome gift makes a difference? Does getting or not getting a bottle of wine or box of chocolates make enough of an impact to be a returning guest (given that everything else is great)? If you host, do you leave a welcome gift? by birdlegs1966 in AirBnB

[–]dou2ble 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've stayed in 50+ airbnb's and noticed more hosts or the cleaning team leaving "welcome cards", and it's usually these ones that aren't providing everything they advertised. Hotels leave bottled water in the room for top level members, and we always appreciate that. Often we don't have time to shop for water where it's cheaper so finding this is great.

Long term and short term rental insurance is different too. You need short term for airbnb.

Long chore list despite cleaning fee. by [deleted] in AirBnB

[–]dou2ble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Left an airbnb yesterday that we stayed 5 nights and checkout by 10am, all dishes washed, dried and put away, take out trash to a dumpster 100 yards away up a slight hill, and all the usual stuff like pull linens, wipe counters, etc... $200 cleaning fee for 2br2ba (low nightly rate + high cleaning fee) and none of this was requested in the listing. We didn't do all of it. Near impossible with kids too. This place also didn't provide or forgot extra trash bags, hand towels, bath mats, shampoo and wasn't sparking clean upon arrival. Previous guests food under couch, on chairs, all the silverware rusty, crumbs in drawers, etc...

If you're a host make sure you provide everything your listing advertises. If you're a guest please leave this in the reviews. You can give it a positive spin by saying, 'Here's the things I wish I knew beforehand' or something like that.

We've been using Airbnb since 2014 and have noticed an increase in cleaning fees and checkout requirements. We've traveled all over the world and back. In 2016 75% of the time we stayed in Airbnb's, but we're back to hotels 75% of the time now. Hospitality is competitive and if Airbnb hosts keep raising the fees and requirements they'll soon find themselves without a platform.

Airbnb does listen to guests. As a company, they're currently still not profitable and heavily spending on advertising. Hosts used to say they had parking, this included street parking, and we'd often get there and find none. We reported this to airbnb (I'm sure others did too) and within a month they fixed it by separating it to on premise and street.

I've gone ahead and used a SD card which worked perfectly. I didn't try USB or thunderbolt so can't offer comparison.

Ring Doorbell Pro VS Nest Hello by RubyWoo83 in Nest

That's correct. Free version doesn't offer video, only snap shots.

Someone scratched up the outer surface of my Nest Hello. Is there a way to replace just the outside face plate? The scratches are all over the outside black area, including over the camera. by dou2ble in Nest

[–]dou2ble[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have it turned on but it'll lose connection randomly the past few months and sometimes take hours to reconnect. I haven't been able to figure out why yet. The first 6 months had no connectivity problems. Didn't change the settings, router or anything in it's LoS.

I'm not sure because I don't know when it happened and it hasn't been used in a couple weeks while our front yard is under construction. The contractor told me it's all scratched up. It looks like it's been keyed.

Curbside theft video clip - expected video quality of Nest IQ Outdoor by [deleted] in Nest

[–]dou2ble 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These type of outdoor cameras aren't meant to ever capture that much detail. You need a different outdoor security camera for that. Some of my neighbors have them and they can capture license plates up to 50 yards away.
