I started over a decade ago, and was one of the first on the scene for airbnb. I was the first 12 apartments on there site for Medellin Colombia....I am a NYC boy who got bought out of his last company and wanted to move to sunny Medellin. I thought what a cute web site....any inquries or booking and the app would make a noise.....Over time I got trained to this sound.....Would run to answer the app...I cheered for them....Bunch of college kids that made good on a need to find a room in San Fran.... Over time they started to dominate the market.....They wrote a TOS(Terms of Service) that was so once sided it should be almost deemed illegal.....They started to take away more and more of my rights....Emails to guests, restricted....People were staying in my home and I can't communicate with them? How absurd...In 2017 I had my first major run in with the company....When I had a IB(Instant Booking) turn up to be double the amount of people said to be staying there. When I canceled....The group lied to the Airbnb said I discriminated against them.....And I got thrown off the platform and all my bookings refunded and blocked. I am devistated.......I tried to boost my website my other sites, but nothing compares to site (Until now) for bookings..... 15 months go by and I try to log back into airbnb just as almost a joke to myself.....To my amazement I can log in.....I contact the company and a day later I get a email from TRUST board....Saying if I promise not to discriminate anymore they will let me on again....but this will be my last shot......My god who do these people think they are.....I tell them anything they want to hear.....Sure sure sure.......I survive another 17 months online.....Until someone dies in one of the apartment.....I was just co-host.....Police clear us of any wrong doings...But airbnb decides to pull the plug no sorries from them for putting this person in my home.....Just we can't support your account anymore and we don't need to give you a reason....I list my other agents and they two get booted from the site....just for being connected to myself........What kind of joke is this.....I make them money.....I was cleared by the police you put this person in my home....We give them all documentation....Then I was told have you heard of the new movement Houfy(House For You)......Nope but tell me more.....And now here I am.....One door closes and another one opens......
