possible mistake in the time zone/time location Apr 25, 2009

I think Bulgaria is +1 GMT and switches to +2 GMT.
You must be mistaken giving the only option of +3 GMT. Caan you fix this mistake. In addition Bulgaria is same time as Athens and Kairo.(and must be also same time with Moscow, Tel Aviv and Turkey) can you confirm that please

Time not correct... Sep 7, 2009

I live in Dhaka. My time is shown as GMT+06:00 hrs. But we are using
Daylight Saving now and consequently my time should be GMT+07.00 hrs instead.

Wrong time in Buenos Aires, Argentina Oct 21, 2009

Hello.

The time zone setting is currently set for GMT-2 in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and it's wrong. The government has just decided that no changes will be made this year for daylight saving in the entire country, including Buenos Aires, so it should stay at GMT-3.

Thanks.

Martin

Incorrect GMT designation for Newfoundland Time (NDT) Jun 10, 2010

Hi,
I've noticed that there appears to be an error in the GMT designation of Newfoundland Time. On the Proz site, the time date display indicates that Newfoundland time is GMT -2.5, while it is in fact GMT -3.5.
I wonder if it might be possible to fix this problem...
Thanks,
Sue Crocker

WRONG TIME ZONE FOR BUDAPEST Sep 2, 2010

The time zone for Budapest is
wrong, IT IS NOT GMT+2, the CORRECT TIME ZONE IS GMT+1, CET (CENTRAL
EUROPEAN TIME - Belgrade, Budapest, Prague, Bratislava...)

This is misleading information and it is disturbing.
You can check the correct time zone here:
http://www.budapest-hotel-guide.hu/en/budapest-information/basic-facts.php ,
but even if you look at you PC's time zones, you will find it.

Please correct this as soon as possible.

I BELIEVE WE SHOULD GET BROWNIES FOR THIS HELP.

Kind regards,
Istvan
(Steven)

Europe/Rome Time Zone GMT + 1 Jul 19, 2011

Hi,
actually there's a mistake in the time zone for Italy (Europe/Rome), which should be GMT+1 and not GMT+2.
Thanks!

I see at http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/city.html?n=26 that the standard time zone for Athens is GMT +2 , but that the current time zone offset is GMT +3. So, I would say that the time zone shown in the site is then the correct (current) one.

The same applies to Rome, http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/city.html?n=215 , where the standard time zone is GMT +1 hour, but the current time zone offset is GMT +2 hours.

Hope this explains.

Kind regards,

Lucia

Error in time zone Aug 20, 2011

Hi,
There's an error in the combo box with the time zones: it places Mexico City on GMT -5, but it's on GMT -6.
I chose another city in the correct time zone, but I hope this error can be corrected so I can select the right city.
Regards
