Rangers fan baffled after being rejected by Airbnb due to “lack of experience”

A RANGERS supporter has been left baffled after his Airbnb booking was rejected due to “lack of experience”. 

Ryan Brown was trying to book a room to stay in Glasgow for next weekend when Rangers Football Club are set to lift their first league title in ten years. 

However, Ryan’s plans were scuppered when the property host decided to reject his booking, explaining that he didn’t have enough “experience” to merit a stay. 

Ryan, from Tranent, East Lothian, was shocked by the reason and responded to the host, known as Scott, saying he was looking for a room, not a job interview.

Ryan posted a screenshot of the peculiar interaction on Twitter on Tuesday (4 MAY) writing: “Trying to sort a gaff in Glasgow for the 15th and I’ve been turned down due to lack of experience…

“ Different.”

The screenshot shows the owner of the Airbnb denying Ryan’s request to stay, writing: “Unfortunately I only accept guests with previous reviews.”

Confused, Ryan replied: “I want a room in Glasgow mate, not a job interview.”

Below the messages a pop up notification is seen to inform Ryan that his request has been denied, reading: “Your request was declined because Scott wanted a different reservation.”
