Help Facebook Contacts error

Hi,

Ive created a few contacts and linked them with facebook - no problems getting that done.

the issue im having is that the phone number that facebook is sending to my phone when linking the contact doesnt have a + in front of the number, so instead of +44712345678 its just 44712345678, which the phone cannot dial as its not a correct number.

ive tried to create a contact before syncing, and can dial out using that fine as ive put the number in properly. however, the second i try to sync the contact with facebook i cant dial out using the number that i put in, it replaces it with the facebook number, which is no good.

please note that this doesnt happen in the contact card - the number is fine there. it only happens if i try to make e.g. a shortcut to direct dial for that person, in which case it wont show the +447... or simply 07... and it only shows the 447.. number.

does anyone have a solution to this? its really annoying me.

thanks,
sandeep
