Uk Timezone bug?

There seems to be a Timezone bug in my UK version.
I have Summertime Adjustment enabled.
The Time in-game is correctly displayed.
1. The daily X2 bonus doesn't re-appear at midnight, its mostly 1 or 2am.
2. The "Guess What?" photo contest should refresh at 4.30pm, but it appears at 6.30pm.
I have not tried to change the summertime value to check if it corrects itself, but Summertime is only 1 hour away, not 2 hours as in the Contest post problem, so I don't think it is that.
Any ideas, Dev's?
thanks

Join the club. I raised same issue earlier, but haven't got any answer from support or such, though some fella (J_Homer I think) was kind enough to explain, that GMT is not UK (or Ireland in my case) time in summer. After some googling, I found out that it is correct. I.e. if you bother yourself to read 2 pages of explanation, you will reluctantly agree to that. I still find it hard to accept. Especialy because WG adjusted CW clock for summer time, so why they can not adjust server clock? Whole (or great majority) of EU is in summer time anyway. Alternatively they could avoid much of confusion by using term UTC, and they actually did so until last November or so.

Yes I know GMT is not GMT during BST (summertime), but I thought the difference should be 1 hour, not 2?
Or are we seeing a double-fault, through the servers and players being in two different Summertime Zones, and changing time twice?
