HomeToGo (horrible expereince)

Hello all,

I wonder how your experience is with HomeToGo. For us, it was a horrible experience. Extremely low quality guests, bookings with stolen cards, mixed up bookings (although the guest cancelled his booking with us, we were not informed about this). 

We want to be in a variety of platforms competing with Airbnb, Booking.com and VRBO but this is not the way how it should be. 

I have gotten zero bookings from HomeToGo in the two-plus years I've been with them. Very recently I went to my listings on their website and discovered major issues, including advertising my units' prices at two times higher than they are. I emailed a detailed message to them about this, and I got no response. So a week later I resent them the message, and I still got no response. But a few days later I got a notice from a bill collector falsely claiming that I owed HomeToGo money for a booking that never happened. So I forwarded that message to HomeToGo and asked them what was up with that, and they didn't respond to that, either. Pretty mean-spirited and crooked.

Nevertheless, over the years I have signed up with all the platforms that are available through OwnerRez, about ten of them, in addition to Airbnb, Booking.com, and Vrbo, and I have gotten zero bookings from any of them. I honestly don't know how any of them stay in business. I do get bookings from Vrbo, Airbnb, and Booking.com, however. I get the most business from people finding my website in a Google search, then Vrbo, Airbnb and Booking.com, in that order.
