I am applying for a Schengen visa and indicated on the forms that my temporary accommodation is covered through AirBnB & Booking.com.

With reference to the above, how would you complete these questions:

Name and address of inviting company/organisation, details of contact person in the company/organisation and tel no. of company/organisation.

I know that generally it is not easy to contact Airbnb or booking.com and you are not given an email address for your host, but instead contact them through the app.

Have you ever experienced these issues and how did you deal with them?

On the Airbnb app; under your trips planned - there is a section to generate a visa letter for the given trip.
 
This for a Schengen? Doesn't it state either or? So details of inviting party, else simply address of place you're staying?
I'd just leave it blank or cross it out.

I applied for my Schengen Visa (Italy) last week and all the places on bookings.com and Airbnb had address which I just filled in no issue. (Mate did the same with France and got his Visa last week)

As per Grootvoet I just printed out confirmation of all my accomodations booked (Just always book with free cancellation so you can still change later if your plans change)
 
You can list the host's name and the accommodation address provided in your reservation details. For the contact, note the platform's customer support email/phone number and clarify in a cover letter that direct communication is done through the app.

But what is related to the vacation, it is easier to contact a company that would organize everything. View now
