Timezone difference causing error - cant display NOW()

All going well till I have to give a presentation.  Cat Tongue

I live in New Zealand and discovered today that the PowerBI website seems to be running on GMT time.

Everything on PowerBI Desktop program is showing today as Friday (which it is where I am) but when uploaded online the PowerBI website still thinks its yesterday.

I created two measures to check.

NOW() and TODAY() and reuploaded the PBIX file - works fine on the desktop but online it shows an error
time now and today missing.jpg
Fix This - just removes the tile
See details gives the error
time now and today error message.jpg

 

is there any way I can change the timezone on the PowerBI site? Sure its somewhere I just need to change the setting.
Thanks

ED
