    This would have been handy 2 months ago.

      I have decided to stop using AirBnb because it is starting to contribute to high rises in rent. Airbnb takes houses of the market and leads to fewer rentals.

      I used to love it but I'll rather help the economy in the long run.

        I wouldnt use gift cards on Airbnb period. Just leaves you at the mercy of their system on refunds. And really anything can go wrong with this style of acommodation.

          I got refunds direct to my credit in the app. No problems.

          But i don't like airbnb for the issue it brings to the property markets.

  • arcticmonkey on 27/10/2022 - 20:05

    Got some. Seems to have much better availability than CrapRewards AirBnb offers as well.

    I just stayed in numerous Airbnb stays across Asia and I found almost every place I booked to have had false advertising or to have something missing/broken vs what was advertised

    The worst case was me booking 3 bedrooms and the owner only wanted to give 2 bedrooms. It caused a lot of stress as they pulled this stunt on the day and I had to pay more to find alternative accommodation

    • CheapBrah on 27/10/2022 - 20:08

      Yeah I always find airbnb listing's dodgy while also being more expensive than legitimate places to stay

      • Maglia Nera on 27/10/2022 - 20:35

        bit like Uber - when they started, all cars were pretty new, clean etc

        Now even the "Comfort" level are 5 year old Camry's that haven't been cleaned for 6 months or so

        As for the pricing - taxi's in peak hours are either equal to or better than Uber's pricing

      • Serapis on 27/10/2022 - 22:49

        Yep finding this more and more, and the properties are basically more expensive managed apartments owned by a company anyway so may as well just book a hotel which is often cheaper

    • sidoz on 27/10/2022 - 20:15

      It's definitely gotten harder in recent years. Asia is particularly random in my experience. Even in Aus since prices have increased significantly its and its gotten harder to find the gems which are not priced crazy.

      wow more details about the airbnb games people play?

        In Colombia airbnb was average compared to their advertisement. They try to befriend you so that you will not give a bad rating.

    • wetwork on 27/10/2022 - 20:28

      Did you still give them 5 stars as Airbnb requires?

      • arcticmonkey on 27/10/2022 - 22:27

        I find that Airbnb's review system inflates the ratings of the properties.

        For example, I didn't review the falsely advertised properties due to not wanting to receive a negative rating in retaliation (which can impact future rentals).

        Airbnb knows what they're doing. I think the system has been built this way to preserve host ratings.

        There's no way the properties I stayed at should be ranked as high as they are (4.7+) with missing TVs in rooms, couches different to what was advertised, doors with holes in them, completely run down and smelling of smoke etc.

        • wetwork on 27/10/2022 - 22:29

          That's why I don't use Airbnb.
          I'm too honest.

          It seems you don’t actually understand airbnb ratings system. Host and guest can’t see each other’s reviews until BOTH of them have left the reviews. You can leave honest reviews as your host can see it only after they review you.

          • shegeloaf on 28/10/2022 - 09:28
            +1

            @hahaer: Some Sneaky hosts like to message you outside of Airbnb (whatsapp etc) to remove your bad ratings and give you all these explanations as to why their property was not up to scratch…

            One suckered me into removing the bad review. Seriously it was rated a 5/5 star on aBNB but it was more of a 1/5*

            • hahaer on 28/10/2022 - 09:55

              @shegeloaf: No its impossible. You can't change your review after host can see it. quotes from Airbnb

              "For stays, if you submit your review first, you may edit it anytime within the 14-day review period, UP UNTIL the other party submits their review. Once both reviews are submitted or the 14-day review period has ended—whichever comes first—both reviews are automatically published and no more changes can be made."

              • shegeloaf on 28/10/2022 - 10:59

                @hahaer: Reviews cannot be changed after it's published (14days) but it can be removed by Airbnb if you ask them to review it they can delete it.

                So hosts normally ask you to review it and then Airbnb only have the option to delete it. That's how some bad hosts have high ratings even after bad experiences.

                • hahaer on 28/10/2022 - 11:33

                  @shegeloaf: Then don’t agree to remove it as your host can’t leave negative review to you after then find out what review you have left to him.

                  • arcticmonkey on 29/10/2022 - 06:27

                    @hahaer: Other Airbnb hosts can see your reviews. If you keep giving negative reviews, it can make them less likely to look upon you favorably or accept your booking.

                    • hahaer on 29/10/2022 - 17:07

                      @arcticmonkey: It’s not easy for a host to check reviews you have left to other hosts. He has to click each host’s avatar in your profile, go through hundreds of reviews from their guests and find yours. I have never heard any host wasting time on it.

    Usually 12% cashback on air bnb. Times must be tough.

  • hahaer on 27/10/2022 - 22:07

    Tips for finding good BnB: always use Superhost with long and detailed reviews. To be a Superhost, the host cannot cancel more than 1 booking each year; average review marks cannot be lower than 4.8 ( full mark is 5). Airbnb reviews superhost every quarter. I have been using Airbnb when travelling for the past 8 years and never had any problems with Superhosts. They might be a bit dearer than others but you get what you pay for.

    • shegeloaf on 28/10/2022 - 09:30

      I had a very bad experience with a super host.

      The review algorithms must of change recently because the quality of superhost property has been reduced.

      • hahaer on 28/10/2022 - 09:57

        No the review algorithms haven't been changed for the past 8 years. I know it because I have been a superhost since 2014.

        • shegeloaf on 28/10/2022 - 11:08
          +1

          4.8 stars for superhost. .
          Well i have been in a few superhost homes overseas that did not deserve a 4.5+ stars.

          People have been to generous in their ratings on airbnb. That's the problem too.

          • hahaer on 28/10/2022 - 11:34

            @shegeloaf: Yes. That’s why I encourage everyone to leave honest reviews as your host can’t leave you negative reviews when they find out.

            • vinnychase on 28/10/2022 - 13:08

              @hahaer:

              encourage everyone to leave honest reviews

              Telling this to people will probably result in them giving you better reviews cause of their improved perception of you. Similarly, telling a girl that you don't like her often makes her like you more which is quite unfortunate in my experience.

            • arcticmonkey on 29/10/2022 - 06:28

              @hahaer: What about making up damage claims in retaliation?

              • hahaer on 29/10/2022 - 16:59

                @arcticmonkey: Hosts can claim damages within 14 days of guests checking out. You can review host on the 14th day to avoid being falsely accused.

    any limits to the number of giftcards we can purchase?

    • [Deactivated] on 27/10/2022 - 23:25

      I've bought 7x$200 so far, still able to add 20 more to cart so I don't think there's a limit

  • jon on 28/10/2022 - 02:20

      There shouldn’t be an issue as I used the Coles MasterCards to buy the ShopBack SS
      There’s a limit of 5 that you can add/remove on ShopBack before a cooldown happens

      • HereToSave on 28/10/2022 - 13:31

        What’s the cool-down? I’ve been “banned”

      • jon on 28/10/2022 - 14:06

        Yea, what happens after the 5? How long do you have to wait before trying again?

        • BargainsGrabber on 28/10/2022 - 14:09

          48hrs from what GYB told me

          It might just put your card linking on hold for 48 hours if there's too much activity

    does this giftcards only to be use within Australia
    or…..it can be use for oversea stays?

      Yes, I've been using these gift cards to book stays outside of Australia. On checking just now, my gift card credits seem to even work when trying to pay in a different currency, with actually quite a good exchange rate it seems!

  • glumanda on 28/10/2022 - 12:42

      the funds in your bank account

  • Ozbargainlyf on 28/10/2022 - 17:20

    Hi all, thanks for the post. Successfully put through $2+k through it so seems to be reasonably unlimited. Word of caution is that when you apply the credit into a booking, it forces you to pay the remaining balance there and then, so make sure either you're prepared to pay the remaining balance, or load up enough credits into your airbnb account so it covers the total.

  • Paokara1 on 28/10/2022 - 17:44

    I just called them and they told me you can apply only 1 gift card to a transaction. So it's pointless buying 10. Can anyone else share their experiences?

    • jvirtue on 28/10/2022 - 18:32
      +1

      I confirm this is incorrect. I purchased 4 $100 gift cards and 1 $200 gift card and used it to purchase accommodation. You add the credit to your account first and it automatically takes it off your booking and asks you to pay the balance

    • Ozbargainlyf on 28/10/2022 - 20:40

      Incorrect, i applied multiples to 3x trips just now

      • minicat on 28/10/2022 - 22:25

  • OhMegah on 28/10/2022 - 23:10

    I'm having trouble using the Coles Mastercard to purchase these. After linking my second $250 Coles Mastercard to make my second purchase of a $200 AirBnB Gift Card, I've received the message.. "Payment unsuccessful. We've detected some unusual activity and couldn’t proceed. Please try again later, or contact our customer service team for help". The first purchase tracked successfully. Is anyone getting this and how do you get around it?

  • Cheeeap on 29/10/2022 - 01:43

      Stack $100 airbnb with shopback $3 challenge. You can add multiple $100 to one account at airbnb.com.au/gift to use the whole balance for one booking. You will only get $3 bonus on first $100, but rest will all still be 10%
