if the listing advertised "high-speed internet" or anything with the wording "high-speed", then i'd call AirBNB and complain until i either got a partial refund or a rebooking elsewhere. Rate 1-star and post as many complaints as possible on as many social media outlets as possible with the full name of the AirBnB host. Name and Shame.
Basically, be as big a nightmare as possible (without getting kicked out) until either it gets fixed or until you get enough money back to make you feel better.
edit:
i wouldn't let them sleep a wink until that's 50Mb/s+ both up and down. should be at least 100Mb/s, but 50Mb/s is manageable.
They're fucking you while on vacation, and i would make their live a LIVING HELL. being cheap has consequences...
Or, hear me out, they could just be a polite human and ask about the issue before jumping to conclusions? It could be a simple case of them restarting the network to fix it. Throwing a tantrum over this without any other information or communication is just pathetic, why would that be your gut reaction?
It's actually crazy how many adults are entitled children who don't know how to deal with issues
Acting like that can very easily backfire
Yeah... even if the people are dickheads, why go through the effort to stoop to their level, just move on with your life.
a person is entitled to what they paid for. they are also entitled to complain when they get ripped off.
but, sure, you can just roll over and get taken advantage of. sounds very "adult".
enjoy that.
Making their life a living hell is a far cry from complaining. What you suggested is childish, petty, and probably would get OP banned from AirBNB.
there is nothing childish nor petty about demanding to get what one paid for. and complaining to AirBnB about it while also posting one's dissatisfaction publicly isn't going to get anyone banned.
I didn't advise doing anything illegal nor did i advise harassing anyone.
My dude you said you'd make their life living hell, the fact that you don't consider that harassment says a lot about the kind of person you are. No wonder you're so unhappy.
You imagine me as unhappy because it services your position to do so.
I get what I pay for. I’m quite happy. If you can’t find it possible to believe me, that’s your own problem.
