DO NOT USE - SCAM COMPANY. I booked through AirBnb for a weekend away 270 days away. The next day, I requested to change the weekend of the booking to the weekend prior to the booking, through the AirBnB platform. The new dates are completely free, I am the only booking for the property in that month. They ignored all my communications and requests. I rung them up and they said "we aren't able to deal with any requests through AirBnb." I emailed them and the email address reply was "unattended." Eventually AirBnB support chased them enough to get a response. They responded saying "their systems were not able to process change of date requests." So despite them being on the AirBnb platform, they aren't actually compatible with the platform. So I asked them, if you cannot alter the booking, cancel it and I will rebook for the correct weekend. They ignored me. AirBnb once again chased and forced them to reply. AirBnb said that they offered to sort out the change of booking in the system, nullifying Syke's reason that they couldn't process the change due to 'technical reasons.' All AirBnb needed was a simple consent for the change to be made, and they would handle the rest. And Sykes simply said 'no'...offered no explanation. They are still ignoring me. If I have to cancel the booking on my terms, I have to hand over half the total amount to them, which is £1100. I then noticed that since I booked, they have cut all the prices at the property by almost half. So they clearly are trying to duck and dodge to prevent me being able to change the dates so that they force me into cancelled the booking so that they can take £1100 for no outlay at all. It's a con. They have literally no good reason to justify this other than a money grab. They are a shaddy, shadowy deceitful company with no standards or customer service. AVOID. And just book through a host directly through another platform.
