Speculation:
Airbnb offered money and support if she agreed not to sue them and not to feed the press the negative story about the service. She refuses to commit to this, they refuse to pay her without it. None of the two parties wants to be transparent about this part of communication. Technically, no one lied.
- redthrowaway 15y agoThat's the first plausible explanation I've seen that at least partially bridges the gaps in the two stories. Still, that scenario doesn't match airbnb's claims. They claim they've been helpful and supportive throughout this. If that was limited to being nice for the first few days then trying to buy her silence, that's nowhere close to how they've characterized it.
