To think the NHS should use the UK date format in texts for clarity?

[ChaosTrulyReigns]

My next Covid vaccination appointment is the 8th of June.

I've had a reminder text.

Telling me that it's the 6th of August

AIBU to think this is pretty unacceptable?

(Photo 2 shows original booking of 7th June, I had to amend but that's the only text I ca fund indicating a June appt, apologies for oddity)

I thought that OP mine's next week but they used the US format so it looked like it was a different month.

@SoupDragon

It's not an americanization since to my knowledge they use month/day/year.

Yes, but that is the problem. The texts are using American format, not U.K.

Then I'm very confused and read the ops text wrong. I'll get back to bed and try again later 😅

Has anyone received a text that is obviously incorrect for U.K. version?

Eg 7/16 and so forth

How far ahead are you getting the reminder, I booked with the national system and my 2nd one is coming up soon, I haven't heard anything. I hope I still have the original message from months ago.

Mines today and i got reminder 2 days . I got the date for the 2nd the same day as booked my first,

I got in UK format
