What's this "new" address? One recently registered? The company is
right that some things will take a while to trickle through. Some DNS
servers cache things longer than they should, including "no answer"
results. And if your query goes through them in the middle, it's a
while before you get the right answers.
If you want to check sooner, you can do a dig query against the name
server actually hosting the records. That should work straight away,
unless they're slack and not enterred the data.
e.g. dig example.com @a.iana-servers.net
My daughter finished the new web page and transferred service to a new
host. There was some confusion when it would display on this computer
with it's different dns than on the three others we tried and it took me
a while to realize she was talking about a dns problem.
She questioned the hosting company and they pointed out to her that the
numerical address should work, then I understood, should have tried that
myself but wasn't thinking clearly, if at all?
The result of her effort is at http://finepianoservices.com/index.html
should you be interested. It took nearly 48 hours to show up on the
other computers using the Wildblue dns.
