International Calls ID

Hi All,

I face a problem. When I receive incoming international call I cannot see a "+" before country number. It causes that my iPhone does not recognize the caller at all. If I put the same number without "+" into contact (2 the same numbers with and without "+") caller ID works normally. But it is annoying to have doubled all phone numbers in contacts...

Does anyone know how to solve the problem? My carrier (Orange PL) told me that they do not block anything and from their point of view all works fine. I do not see this problem on Android devices (so probably I have something wrong in my iPhone configuration...).

Thank you in advance for help :)

This doesn't seem like a Carrier issue. It is probably the way contacts are stored in your device.

First,

Contacts are neither stored locally on an iPhone nor in SIM. They are synced to an email account that you had Google, iCloud, AOL, Exchange, Outlook, Yahoo or any Other

Next,

Spaces, Hyphen or Parentheses in a Phone number depends on the International prefix

Watch the GIF below. Note here only numbers is being input, but Spaces, Hyphen or Parentheses are added by iPhone automatically

On iPhone 6 iOS 12

Problem is not with my contact list. When I receive incoming phone there is no "+" before country number. This affect that phone does not recognize the number (in contact list there is the same number with "+" at beginning...
