In reply to Tom. This happened to me too recently. Anyone with any idea of how my money can be gotten back?

I agreed with Mary and Marissa comments, since you’ve several tools to give advice and it seemed you did not realize that like, for example, if it was a verified host ( which is actually done in several ways ).
You’ve been very silly and no other is responsible of that but yourself. I’ve been in Airbnb properties in Paris, Montreal, Vancouver and Buenos Aires with a great stay in each city.
Be more accurate in your reviews, since others will be counting on that

I’m sorry… but doing transfer to an account because somebody told you? It’s your fault, not Airbnb.

Honestly, you should of never paid outside of a secure payment. That’s not AirBNB fault. If it was outside if their procedure than you are at fault and have to takr responsibility for that action. Yes people are bad and will scam you but I don’t think this is AirBnB’s fault at all. I can’t believe you would agree to pay through a different payment method.

I really feel terrible reading your story. I am from near if Alcudia and I cannot believe people can make profit stripping from others. I hope you did enjoy a bit your time in Pollensa and the second host did a good service.
Kind regards,

This is terrible. I’m a neighbour of a full time Airbnb property and its ruined my home life. To say I dislike this company is putting it mildly. They don’t care. Its as simple as that. They do not care. I’m so sorry to hear this happened to you and hope you were able to have some fun, albeit at double the cost 🙁
