Airbnb customer says Melbourne listing was canceled days before Taylor Swift concert, with owner then doubling the price

Airbnb customers paying big bucks on accommodation for Taylor Swift’s concerts in Australia say their bookings have been cancelled days before her run of shows — only for the same rooms to be listed at much higher prices.

The fans claim they’ve now been hung out to dry, and left to find alternative accommodation at the eleventh hour, with most places in Melbourne almost completely booked out.

“I was lucky enough to book an Airbnb until she days ago he let me know he had to cancel it as he had emergency renovation,” disgruntled Airbnb customer Lily told “The Project” on Thursday night.

“I questioned him. I said, ‘That sounds like something you would have known prior to three days before my stay.’”

“There was a language barrier. He couldn’t really give me an answer. I asked him when I’d get my refund. He couldn’t tell me what was going on.”

“I said could you provide me with some evidence? He couldn’t do that. I said I’m going to take this up with Airbnb. I paid around $590 for my four-night stay in Brunswick.”

But then, Lily claims, she checked the app again and found the same property listed for $1,300 — for the same dates she had originally booked.

Lily said Airbnb gave her a $30 credit in compensation which “might get me a hostel”.

Swift’s flight to Australia landed in Melbourne early on Thursday.

The flight, originating in Honolulu, Hawaii and designated VJT993, touched down at 12:50am, local time.
