Nuance issues with availability 

A note on daylight savings time

Your availability should be based on the current time. If daylight savings time (DST) is approaching, any times on a date after DST will be shifted back by an hour until the DST change takes effect.

Events that have already been scheduled

Scheduled Calendly events will always be considered busy status events. Changing the status of these events within your connected calendar will not free up that time within Calendly. You can cancel or reschedule events from your Scheduled Events tab on your Home page at any time to open up your availability.
