- jahewson 11y agoAirBnB probably don't have standing to file a suit to have him removed. I suppose they could fund him to file a suit against the blacklist agencies - assuming that there's a valid case. Alternatively he could sue ABnB for further damages due to ending up on the blacklist, though he might not be able to do that due to previous settlements, arbitration, etc.
- thaumaturgy 11y agoHe was renting an apartment and he listed it on AirBNB, which was almost certainly a violation of his lease agreement (and poor judgement on his part). The blacklisting, if it exists as he says it does, is entirely his own fault.
- akshatpradhan 11y agoAirBnB doesn't seem to take reasonable steps to protect either side. I remember I rented out a place and I had no hot water for a week and the place was filthy. AirBnB's response was along the lines of, sorry, good luck finding a better host next time! Maybe AirBnB needs to create educational video instructions on how to act as both a Host and a Guest. Hosts and Guests seem to be uninformed on how to behave and these common sense practices don't really seem to be common, for whatever reason.
