My listing have been suspended by the ‘Safety Team’

After I complained about a nightmare guest who had a big party and caused damage the ‘Safety Team’ suspended my 4 listings while they investigate a safety breach.

 

 They give no explanation.

 

They do not clarify what the safety issue is.

 

It’s been 5 days and nothing has happened.

 

I do not understand why a Host is punished for reporting the bad behaviour of a guest.

 

I have had such good experiences with Airbnb over the last 5 years but this is so disappointing.


Do you have any advice on how to solve this issue?

Hi @Gary1164 ,

I have now the same situation. The Safety team have suspended all my 6 listings and untill now nobody is showing any support. They sended me yesterday an email that there was a safety issue with one reservation (reservation and guest name NOT mentioned). And because of that they suspended ALL my 6 listings, without any explanation or proof. I have responded immediately on their email, no response until now. I have called Airbnb general line 12 times, No support at all. Just saying please be patient someone will contact you. Now 36 hours further an nobody is contacting me. I'm a host for 8 years and I never had this situation. Also, none of my recent guest contacted me about an issue or wrote a negative review, Nothing! Now out of nowhere Airbnb suspend all my listings with one click without contacting me. This is insane! Please someone here take a look at my account because this Safety team is not responding and the general line cannot do anything.

I have the same situation now, did your issue get solved at the end?
