Totally frustrated with Air BnB (please note this is not in AIBU......)

[KatyMac]

I am not being fair

DD has to work in London tomorrow

I have booked an air bnb about an hour and a half ago - it has not been confirmed (I know they are probably busy/at work etc)

But they have taken the money from my CC and I am unsure about sending her off on the train with no hotel confirmed at the other end (which is about me not her - she is carefree and will get on the train no matter what)

Do I book another room or hang on, if I am hanging on, how long do I hang on

Your daughter is working.
In London.

So I presume she is old enough to book her own accommodation?

What is it with parents these days that won't let their children grow up?

I was travelling and hitchhiking - o.k. I wouldn't recommend it now - at the age of 16. In UK.
Working in Europe at 18, staying in hostels.

All we had was a "reverse charge call" to our parents on the landline. (When we could find one).

They have refunded my first payment but it might take 7 days...

Restup hasn't got a single room & Easyhotel isn't in the right place for a 6:30 start

Do you know if my brother/mother or husband left one job in East Anglis at 7:30pm and started another in Richmind at 6:30 the next morning I would probably help them sort out accommodation - but if that isn't how your family works, that's fine

found her somewhere on Booking.com which is less than travelodge

Phew

Thanks everyone

I've give up on airbnb.too much hassle for not enough return compared to a proper b&b or budget hotel.
good luck to your daughter!

Thanks redchocolatebuttons

Exactly Trumpton, same as when I need help (usually social media or technology) I ask her to help me.....we live in a co-operative household
