when im playing  a game live i only see the time on the game screen so if its faulty and shows wrong time then looking at archives later doesnt help with anything since i already lost the game on time lol

I've never had lag problems for bullet when I'm playing on my PC. If I have 0.8 seconds left, I have 7-8 premoves that will go through. I think lag just differs from person to person

and to add salt to the injury i just played a bullet game where it said i lost on time but both me and my opponent had zero time left on the clock at least on my screen we both had 0 time left not even 0.1 for any of us just clean 0 .

Welcome to bullet! I have lost games with more than 2 seconds left for me and no mate :-) ... For iOS this is a recent bug. Even the score screen after the match is missing. You win or lose and you have to wait for the next one to see it.

I play bullet and all kind of bugs have happened (and will happen). Most notably the issues related to lag. I do not understand why that is not acknowledged by chess.com and the only answer is that "it COULD be issues with YOUR connection". 

Lately, I play 20 mins or so with no lag, and almost automatically, begins the lag until I stop playing. It really looks like there is some routine of "purposive lag". If you are too long here, go away, looks to me

As a web developer, let me explain. Chess.com has a server somewhere in california and all of the moves and stuff goes there through wires from your internet service providers. With the recent boom in chess popularity, let’s just say that things can get a bit hectic and the servers have to tackle things one at a time. And if you’re really mad about this, then just switch to verizon, I have had no issues whatsoever with it.

I play perfectly from Buenos Aires, Argentina with 154 ms latency.

Servers are so crap. All this in defense of chesscom makes me want to puke. Probably poorly implemented servers on AWS. AWS has very high uptime, so I'd guess It's on chesscom. 

https://www.chess.com/about -> 5 server employees

https://weworkremotely.com/remote-jobs/chess-com-cloud-engineer-sysops-for-millions-of-chess-players

its probably because of your crap not chess.com, it works perfectly with 0 lag what so ever
