Re: Just now realized big discrepancy in display of rate quote to guests...

I was just about to start a thread on this issue. On VRBO the big highlighted amount includes Rent + Tax + Fees + Refundable Deposit. This makes it look much more expensive than the Homeaway that...

Re: Just now realized big discrepancy in display of rate quote to guests...

I want my guests to know all the charges when checking into renting my condo. I don't want them to think it is going to be $900 and then hit them with all the extra fees when it comes time to book....

Are you bundled or listed separately on VRBO and HA?

Re: Just now realized big discrepancy in display of rate quote to guests...

My whole point exactly Brad, thanks, and what I was trying to convey in the images I posted as well.  And don't forget, HomeAway doesn't even show the other charges when you first click the blue "Get A...

Re: Just now realized big discrepancy in display of rate quote to guests...

As long as my rates are displayed the same way as my competition, I don't care what VRBO shows. But they're not displayed the same way as your competition (or even your same listing) on HomeAway, which...

Just wondering if it was a 'bundling' issue or if those with separate listings who have not bundled are experiencing the same problem with Quotes for trhe rental property.   Do those with separate...

No lincoln, they are going to be changing VRBO to calculate or display quotes the same way as HomeAway does though, according the VRBO product manager Forrest: Thank you for flagging this discrepency...

Re: Just now realized big discrepancy in display of rate quote to guests...

Thank you for the information.  Cleaning is included in my rates as well as some other fees that nearby rentals charge separately for.  Everytime time I'm ready to try to fill in the rates the way...

Re: Just now realized big discrepancy in display of rate quote to guests...

The fix to this discrepancy has been "broken" again. Forrest, can you help again? Now the HomeAway quote hightlights the total of the Rent+Tax+Cleaning Fee+Deposit. Instead of highlighting the Rent and...

Re: Just now realized big discrepancy in display of rate quote to guests...

No business owner in their right mind makes their product look more expensive than necessary. Additional taxes and fees are routinely added separately. A refundable deposit should NEVER be included in...

It's been three days with no responses.  Is no one else getting different readings like Brad on the two sites?

Re: Just now realized big discrepancy in display of rate quote to guests...

I am getting them as well. I have "Book it Now" and if you put in the dates 08/24-08/27 the instant quote includes: nightly rate, cleaning, taxes and refundable damage deposit. It makes my rates looks...

Re: Just now realized big discrepancy in display of rate quote to guests...

I must have been having brain cramps as I wrote last that response last night. My fees look exactly like yours, shown as one HUGE fee vs showing a breakdown of the fees. You have to actually click on...

Re: Just now realized big discrepancy in display of rate quote to guests...

Oh, I see.  I think, hkquinn, you are saying yours are like my original screen shots at the beginning of this thread.  But you see after I reported it to HomeAway and later relayed on here, they fixed...

Oddly, I went to get you screen shots of both VRBO and HA, and it appears to be working fine now. HmmmmSplinphx, thanks for starting this thread. It appears HA might have actually been listening to...
