Zoom Trolling me re setting date settings to DD/MM/YYYY

I put in a feedback regarding the recent change that means only american date settings work in the app. This is a change that recently happened and lots of people are complaining, all the countries that use DD/MM/YYYY in fact (spoiler alert there are quite a few.)  Anyway this is the reply I got:

Re: How to Change Date Format to dd/mm/yyyy

 

 

Would you believe that, having submitted a ticket to Zoom asking them to fix this problem with the date format, I received a response from them saying they have "...added your request to our feature request list for our product development and engineering teams to consider for future development."  As if this is some fancy new feature that a random bunch of Zoom users are interested in!!  I have written back and said "it's not a feature request, it's a fix-the-problem-you-created request" but I have no doubt the AI at the other end of the conversation will struggle to grasp the problem. 

 

If you are affected by this date format change and you are a paid subscriber, PLEASE submit a ticket to Zoom asking them to fix the issue their latest update created.

    I have the same problem.  Zoom are you a global IT organisation or just restricted to the USA?
    Perhaps you dont undertsand the difficulties having all aspects in American dates when you invite users into a Zoom session.  Please fix this issue!
