I have put telephone numbers in my contact list but they are displaying them in a format that is not recognised when I dial the number. How do I remedy this please?

First try Settings, Phone, and turn on Dial Assist


If that does not hep, put the numbers in International Format

i.e.

+44 7890 123456 instead of

07890 123456
