Invoice from VRBO Billing Department As VRBO owners for the past 20 years. We recently encountered an issue where we were charged for a cancellation due to a guest's failure to provide their information for CHECK-IN within 24 hours of booking. Despite receiving a reference number from customer service to cancel the invoice by their Billing department, we continued to receive invoices. Each time we contacted customer service, we were told to wait for the Billing department's response. Eventually, we received a new invoice with double the original price, claiming we hadn't paid. After another call to customer service, we were once again told to wait for the Billing department. This cycle repeated, with additional charges being applied each time. And this case remains unresolved and still waiting to hear back from the Billing Department. We're feeling physically stressed by the actions of VRBO's Billing Department, as they keep increasing the amount each time, despite us being told to be patient and wait for the cancellation. We haven't received any payment from this guest, so there's no money to charge on their end. It's been over two months, and we haven't heard anything from VRBO except for receiving new invoices stating they're charging us double and triple the original amount. The cancellation issues with VRBO are really taking a toll on us physically. The following day, a guest booked our place through VRBO for a period already booked through Airbnb. Our VRBO calendar clearly showed the booking, as I had manually blocked the dates as a precaution. However, someone/system removed the Airbnb booking from the calendar, allowing for a new instant booking through VRBO. When we contacted customer service about the overlapping bookings, they insisted we pay the cancellation fee again, warning that our ranking would suffer if we didn't comply. Has anyone else experienced similar issues with VRBO recently? We haven't done anything wrong from our end and we're feeling physically stressed by the actions of VRBO's Billing Department.

VRBO bad service and no help in emergencies VRBO has shockingly bad customer service. When we arrived at our destination- with confirmation of the reservation- we contacted the owner as we had not gotten arrival info. The owner told us he had taken down his VRBO account and removed his property from the site months ago. (!) When we called VRBO for help they gave us the run around and left us waiting for 6hrs. Before putting us into a 2nd rate hotel for 2 days. They said they would get us another apartment which they did not (this after at least 30 conversations and 20 emails). Then they left us Literally on the street with suitcases and no where to stay. They told us to find our own place and they would “reimburse us”. Clearly- we did not trust that they would reimburse us as they never offered to do so with the $1,000 we had already given them. So - VRBO does NOT have your back when a rental reservation falls through. I am Writing this standing on the street with my suitcases around me and with no where to go. I am still waiting for a solution that does mean shelling out more $ or staying in a bad hotel. I will never use them again - and I will write this bad review on every site I can find to do so.

Listing on VRBO used to be a very easy…. Not any more. Listing on VRBO used to be a very easy process. Now putting up a new listing is a nighmare. I have spent over an hour trying to put up a new listing and I keep getting this error message for over an hour: "Try refreshing the page. We're having trouble loading this. Wait a moment, then try again." I tried calling the customer service number at 8:40 am on a Tuesday morning and received a recorded message that their offices are closed and to call back later. This is horrific customer service and a terrible website. How can the website have issues at the very beginning of the listing process for over an hour. This is not the first time I've had problems trying to put up a listing.

Horrible company They charge me a fee for canceling a reservation that I didn’t even approve. This is one of the worst companies I think I have ever worked with. Do not recommend using them at all.

Just don’t book with them Just don’t book with them: o booked, they took immediate payment for full amount. It went out of my account. Booking was confirmed. I booked our flights. Then a day later host cancelled booking saying it should never have been confirmed. I cannot find another suitable place for a reasonable cost. This is not ok. I am a host myself on Airbnb. This is terrible
