Problem with national/international number recognition.

Hi,
I am having trouble with the phone not recognising numbers stored in contacts. It seems that when ever I receive a text message it won't put a name to it unless the number is stored with the international dialing code, but if I recieve a phone call it has to be in the national format to be recognised.
Is this known about? My old 7650 would work it out no matter what format the number was in, somehow ignoring the code and just going by the actual phone number.
There is no repeated numbers in different contacts, it is the same ones I had in my 7650 bluetoothed one at a time over to the 6600.

Any ideas? :?
Thanks

Hi, I was just searching up this problem online to see if I could find a resolution myself.

I emailed nokia and they said its something to do with the Orange network (if you are in the UK) ... so, its up to them to sort out their network settings.

However, my mate experienced the same problem and orange just told him to change all his numbers in his phone book with the international code added.

Seems the only resolution here.
