I think the underlying problem may be Betfair, but this is killing my automated betting.
China, Norway Sweden, some they have corrected since I complained to Betfair, different at times on exchange to what the API sends down so Gruss an hour out a lot.
For example, just downloaded (12:11 bst) some games for today.
Argentinian Primera Division, Belgian Jupiler League, Czech Fortuna Liga, Danish Superliga, Dutch Eredivisie, English Premier League and
French Ligue 1 look correct.
Egyptian Premier Wadi Degla v Petrojet 10/08/2018 20:00 (should be 19:00, web wrong too)
German Bundesliga 2 Ingolstadt v Greuther Furth 10/08/2018 18:30 (Web shows 16:30, and real KO is 17:30!)
German Bundesliga 2 Paderborn v Jahn Regensburg 10/08/2018 18:30 (Web shows 16:30, and real KO is 17:30!)
German Bundesliga 2 St Pauli v SV Darmstadt 10/08/2018 20:30 (Web shows 18:30, and real KO is 19:30!)
So, API does not always equal Betfair web, and both can be wrong anyway. Seems very random as to which leagues are incorrect. It's always 1 hour either side of the correct time that I can see, so I wonder if betfair have got their DST algorithm wrong.
Can I ask, as an API Vendor, that you bring this to Betfair's attention. I am continuing to complain to Betfair as loudly as I can.
If I get lost in thought it is because it is unfamiliar territory.
