I created a VCF file (VCARD version 2.1) of contacts and imported it into an Android 5 phone. A Motorola Moto G 2nd generation.

The VCF has phone numbers formatted correctly for the UK (e.g. "01234 567890") but Android has altered them to a format that looks like a US format ("012-345-67890).

How can I stop this happening?
