Review Censorship
Property owners can challenge and suppress unfavorable reviews, leading to a biased representation of properties. This undermines the credibility of the review system and misleads potential renters.
AI Support Limitations
The app's AI support is inadequate, providing repetitive and unhelpful responses without resolving user issues. This frustrates users who expect efficient problem-solving from customer support.
Misleading Fees
The app displays misleading information about fees, initially showing all fees included but later adding unexpected charges. This deceptive practice frustrates users and damages trust.
Delayed Messaging
Messages and trip details take excessively long to load in the app, causing significant delays in communication. This hampers user experience and can disrupt travel plans.
Payment Processing Issues
Users face difficulties with payment processing, including incorrect state entries leading to declined transactions. This technical flaw disrupts bookings and causes user dissatisfaction.
One Key Cash Problems
