How soon will my public response to a review be visible?

I want to leave a public response to a review I received today.  I went to the Reviews link under the Host tab, found the review and clicked on "Leave a Public Response".  I typed my response in the text box and hit submit.  I do not see my response anywhere.  Does anyone know if public responses are immediately posted or do they go through some sort of review period and are posted at a later time?  I do not want to re-type my response, click submit and have it show up twice if it is just a delayed posting type of thing.

That's odd as I believe all my responses have appeared instantly. You might send a help query to investigate...

Thanks for your response.  I tried posting my response again and it worked.  It showed up immediately!

maybe try again on a regular  computer? I found that my tablet behaves differently than my computer when I want to post something. Your listing looks great, at a great price also! Some people are just difficult and she and her business partner sure sound like it, and they expect the comfort of a luxury hotel at rock bottom pricing.

Her review speaks for itself, her consclusion/demand of what you owe her in refunds is out of line, as you have clearly  stated that the sleep station is a futon. I understand you want to say something, but let it sit overnight.... people who read her review will mark HER as difficult, not you! If you say something , make it "short and sweet", don't be defensive, hard as it might be... Good luck!

Thank you for your feedback and advice!  It definitely makes me feel better.  I have waited a day to to see if AirBNB would help me to resolve a related issue before writing a reponse but so far no help on their end which has been surprising.  I did not want an unaccurate review to sit on our listing's page without a rebutal for much longer for potential guests to read.  I was not quite sure how it would be preceived.  I was using a regular computer so I think I will try posting again.  Thanks!

you cannot edit or delete reviews, they are permanent.

YOUR REVIEW WILL NOT BE MADE PUBLIC UNTIL EITHER THE OTHER PERSON LEAVES A REVIEW, OR 14 DAYS HAVE PASSED. WHICHEVER COMES FIRST. THOSE ARE THE RULES.

This question was specifically about posting a public response to a review, not the actual review itself.  I understand the time lapse in the intial review process.  Thank you tough for your response.
