Should I be the one to pay?

A guy who is renting my place while I am overseas just rang me and said he locked himself out and I must pay for the locksmith because I didn't leave spare keys. Is that true? My parents are old and asleep and I am not going to bother them as they never wanted me to rent it out..

is that my responsibility? I am overseas and he wants me to pay by credit card

i would imagine that no, sounds like he just doesn't want to face the fact that its his fault. call airbnb, whether you are using their site or not makes no difference, say you are interested in renting your house. ask if you are required to leave a double of the keys somewhere in case the renters lock themselves out. they are a big company so they will already have done their homework and know the law about this.
