TO ALL OWNERS ON THIS SITE-- If you are BIN ENABLED OR HA PAYMENTS OR ANY WAY YOU QUALIFY FOR A FEE, GET OUT OF BOTH ASAP. THEN YOUR CUSTOMERS DONT GET STUCK WITH THIS FEE
ALSO DISABLE AUTORENEW AND TAKE YOUR FINANCIAL INFO OUT
This company for the last couple of years for owners who pay a listing subscription to sign up for direct bookings and payments through their website. This in my opinion has grown a wedge between renter and owner. These past weeks the company has had the audacity to introduce a renter fee to travelers of up to $500 with a % of 4-10%. This is for doing nothing.
For those that did not sign up for direct payments they have punished them by placing their listings below those of a similar subscription level BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, they have put verbiage on my booking page that warns that this owner does not accept direct payments and therefore we can't protect you.
If you were a prospective renter this would scare you away from booking suggesting this owner Iis disreputable.
Already renters are reacting to fees and those with no fees with all classes of owner being financially impacted by this
This has resulted from many owners with many less enquiries and bookings doing financial loss and harm to thousands of owners
Many are discontinuing their listing on this site(s) and listing elsewhere and even that has not stirred any response from this company
