Airbnb Wrong Date Booking - They Stole My $300

I selected a specific date for my reservation, but their system automatically shifted my booking to the next available date instead! I paid $370, and when I noticed the error just two minutes later and tried to cancel, I only received a measly $70 refund.
This is completely unacceptable and feels like outright theft. I don't understand why my money wasn't fully refunded, especially since I caught the error immediately. This isn't fair treatment, and I'm being penalized for a system glitch.
Airbnb, you need to rectify this immediately! Refund the remaining $300 that you unjustly withheld from my account. Stop making it impossible to get a full refund for an immediate cancellation caused by your system's error. Return my money now!
