3 Premium articles for non Premium subscribers.

I always save at least one article for the end of the month so I don’t miss something i am interested in reading because I have used all my allotment of Premium articles. Last night 30 April 2018 at approx 9:00PM Eastern Daylight time I read what should have been my third article for April instead for whatever reason (server located in Europe?) it was charged against my May allotment. Is there any way to correct this?

    <p>Maybe as a convenience and best practice, the site uses UTC? 9 pm EDT is 1 am UTC. </p>

    <p>2 Free Premium articles is still better than none but I would have thought the site used Eastern Time also.</p>
