Incremental refresh defaulting to American date format (m/d/yyyy) in Power BI service

[barda]

I have set up an incremental refresh on a report which appears to be working as normal. My report pages have date slicers on each page and I have a few visuals that reference dates; I am in the UK the dates are written out in the British format (dd/mm/yyyy). However, when the report is uploaded to the Power BI service, the date slicers as well as any of my visuals that reference dates write the dates out in the American format (m/d/yyyy).

Is there a way to fix this, or is this a bug in the system?

If you are hosted in US, it will always use US date format on Power BI Service. To workaround this issue, you can try to set the default language on Browser to English UK.
