Like IoW, said, its not reliable, and the workaround and 99% reliability is by using a 3rd party service called a Channel Manager.

 

Some free plans, some paid features or low cost monthly.

 

e.g. syncbnb, cloudbeds, beds24, nobeds, etc 

 

A quick google search for channel manager will bring up many of them.

 

The reason a CM service has a high success rate is because it act the Sync Manager and golden copy / master calendar and it manages then each OTA calendar connected.

 

As Jon Taffer  (Tv: Bar Rescue) would say :

' I dont embrace excuses I only embrace solutions',

like him and Gordon Ramsey (Kitchen Nightmares) , I believe in just getting on with it and do what is nessecary to make it work.

 

So while I agree always with IoW above, I am not interested in waiting around for BdC to fix it, and instead bypass the issue and use the Channel Manager solution.

 

Note : there can be in some rare cases regardless of a CM, a 1% chance of the BdC system glitches and causes a overbooking. I have seen less than 5 cases of this in recent months on here.

 

 

Kind Regards
