you can use the new site https://olehstay.com/ that was created specifically in response to Airbnb’s decision, they  say that they or on a mission to be the alternative Airbnb in Israel and eventually around the world. (not sure how safe but it was created by the same team of https://olehpay.co.il/  which is a  secured and cost-effective way to send money to Israel.)

if you charge a Airbnb on a CC. Does it come up as travel? I would like to charge it to my Barclay card and use my points to pay the charge.

Anyone with experience getting a refund from Airbnb for not being listed properly?
We arrived and there wasn't enough beds, we had to stay cuz it was right before shabbos, so the host stuffed in a few cot like beds which was ridiculously uncomfortable and squeezed in to rooms not normally, when reached out to Airbnb they denied the refund!!!??? How do I proceed this is a genuine claim.

I rented a place for 5 people on the website it said 5 single beds, when I got there was 2 double beds and a mattress on the floor.
I spoke to airbnb to request money back, and they made me crazy and at the end didn't give me a refund. (Don't worry I got my refund at the end from amex but I doubt I'd use them again the customer service is terrible.)
You disputed the charge? I have the same issue and I'm trying to figure out the best way to go about it

I tried disputing with Chase and they said they couldn't because I still used the services

Just curious did you check reviews before booking. I am wondering how reliable the reviews are.
