VRBO Homeaway Predatory pricing policies forcing customers to pay more for services Nationwide

VRBO/Homeway vacation homeowner services has engaged in a marketing strategy where they force customers into buying "upgraded" services to increase the hit rate to your property website.  They have eliminated owner input for property reviews received from renters and force owners to actively compete for web site priority.  There tactics are predatory and unethical.  I would not advise anyone looking to rent their property on a vacation basis to use them.  There are better options with Flipkey, AiA's lodging4vacations.
