I won the case, and received my $42 back. AirBnB sent me some automated email asking why I did a chargeback. I clicked the "other" box. I never heard from them again.
I've since made another booking, and am preparing to file another chargeback for the same reason.
If we all do this, Visa / MC might eventually force them into compliance.
This was my experience too. I never heard from them after I clicked the "other" box. I would gladly have told them it was because of DCC.
