If the iPhone telephone numbers are correct but the spacing is wrong i.e. European spacing, the number will not work. [0123 456 7890 or 01234 567890 to 01 234 56 78 90] . Very tiresome.... but here is the workaround. The problem is FORMATTING.
[1] Get into the region as this is where the workaround all takes place:
SETTINGS - GENERAL - LANGUAGE & REGION - REGION UK
[2] The REGION NEEDS TO BE 'RE-SET'. Done by (1) 'unsetting' it. Tap on 'United States ' bar and a menu appears 'Change to ENGLISH (US) (2) Tap on that (3) wait until it has done that, then (4) go back and do the same thing again the other way around, i.e. Scroll up one bar to 'United Kingdom and tap on it. Tap on 'Change to ENGLISH (UK) and wait for it to change. Now back where you started. A long way for a short-cut?! But this works. And it may need to be done again as another device (or iCloud/) seems to cause it to go into European format again.
