Press Release Summary: Extended daylight savings time causes confusion as phones and computers incorrectly update their clocks - fortunately there\'s 199QUERY
Press Release Body: Australia\'s decision to change daylight savings time for the 3rd time in 3 years has resulted in a myrad of tired Sydney residents getting to work at the wrong time. Not so for the 120 people who sent a text to 199QUERY asking \"what time is it?\"
Major Australian telcos failed to update their servers with the extended daylight savings hour change and promptly caused modern mobiles to automatically update.
Like most people, Alison T from Hornsby used her phone as an alarm clock \"When I got up I saw the oven clock was an hour late, and was a little confused as to what the time was. \" After checking her computer, which had also been automatically updated, she sent a quick text to 199QUERY asking \"what is the current time\"
\"199QUERY responded with the correct time and a footnote describing the daylight savings extension thus explaining why I was confused\" \'\'
199QUERY operates 24 hours a day and its team of researchers provide bespoke answers to any query texted to it.
