This is super frustrating. I left a great review for my host (it took me 20 min to write) and when I pasted it on AirBnB the formatting was completely screwed up. I tried to edit it immediately but unable to do so. I don't have time for this.
Additionally, I sent a message to my host and when the message went, there was an auto-fomat that said " (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN)" I did NOT write anything sensitive there.. all I said was "twitter message" and that was automatically replaced by " (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) ". AirBnB -- your software really sucks.
There's a lot of issues with AirBnB. I was supposed to get a refund from them within 5-15 days and I completely forgot about it. Not sure what made me remember and I checked my credit card for the refund, and it wasn't there. I had to phone AirBnB and after a very long hold was told "yes, I see your refund was posted, not sure why it hasn't yet arrived, it should arrive.. as a compensation, we can give you a $25 AirBnB credit". No thank you. I don't want a "credit" that forces me to use your site.
Anyway, yes, this editing of reviews seems to be a software bug (among the many, many bugs on their customer-facing site and also their internal software!!)
