No, seriously. There is a TOS against posting reviews outside of Airbnb. A medium blog post was posted here about it[0].

> I still can’t believe that leaving an offsite review was a bannable offense, but even more disturbing to me is the way AirBnB handled the situation with a one-sided, permanent, irreversible, closed book suspension.

You don't have to post the review itself, just a screenshot showing that it exists. Btw, thanks for posting this, this is valuable to everyone who considers using their services.


The point is that if Airbnb is petty enough to ban people over off-site reviews, they're probably petty enough to ban people over off-site evidence of review manipulation.
