I had a frustrating experience this week and almost lost a friendship due to Google Calendar. We had agreed to meet at Time A. I sent a calendar appointment for a Time A. On friend's computer it showed up as Time A + 7 hours. Each of us turned up at the coffee shop at our assigned times and wondered why we had been stood up. I "took the blame" and apologized, wondering whether I was suffering from early onset dementia. We talked on the phone and agreed to try again at a Time B. I sent another appointment. It showed up on friend's calendar at Time B +7 hours. That was when the penny dropped that this was a Google glitch. Checked device settings, all normal. Searched Google forums, and what do you know: there are discussions about this dating back several years, describing a lack if response from Google.
I will not be sending any further appointments using Google calendar as I would like to keep my friends!
