Bit of an odd issue I'm having, whenever I receive an email from iCloud (when using find my iphone for example) all the txt is in Japanese. Also when in the reminders app I also get some Japanese at the top of the page, I'm guessing this is also because it is tied to my iCloud account. I've tried logging into iCloud.com on the web and making sure it is set to English (also tried changing to Spanish and back to English again) but still emails from noreply@insideicloud.icloud.com still arrive in Japanese!

Googling around hasn't found anything helpful, any ideas?

Apologies all, think I've found the fix

Go to appleid.apple.com, log in and under "Language and Contact Preferences" there is a preferred language option, sure enough it was set to Japanese. I'm 100% sure I never set that....
