One problem I've had occasional reports of is that the expiry is prematurely detected, and it seems to be on systems with system language set other than English. I need to store and check the dates in a way that is not sensitive to this. I thought I was, yet the reports persist.

When a premature expiry occurs, how premature is it? A day? A few days? An hour? A few hours?

If it's up to a few hours, it might be the time-zone difference. If it's at most one day, at about the same local time of day, then that might also be the time-zone difference. If it's a few days, then time-zone is unlikely. Otherwise I concur with Andy Lee: try storing the timeIntervalSince1970.

You might also try correlating it to the specific language, locale, and/or calendar type. It could be a bug in a particular calendrical case, such as the Buddhist calendar.
