Numbers coming in incorreclty - showing as foreign countries

Apple confirmed to me that they in no way change/provide/etc any of the incoming phone data. They said that is all from the carrier.

my issue is the local area code starts with 94.. the first call came in +94 (Sri lanka) and the second call a minute later came through correctly showing the city, state. I only noticed this issue because the Sri lanka and the local number were the same exact number, just formatted incorrectly.

Yes, iPhone X with iOS 13.1.2

Do  you have an Apple phone?

I’m experiencing similar issues. Numbers coming in as international but they are from USA.   For example, 763 area code shows coming from +44 (England).  when they leave a voicemail message, it shows the correct 763 number.  This is happening a lot!!! 

This all started after signing up and activated t-mobile’s 15GB International Pass.

I reset my Caller ID / My Number to eliminate the “+”. I was able to remove the “+” but it did not fix the issue.

Frustrating!  Any other suggestions?

I think I figured out what's happening (in my case, at least).

I'm international (Spain) and have the $50 15GB add-on, so I'm calling back to the US a decent amount. My friends told me that when I call them it comes from a Russian number, so I asked for a screenshot which revealed a lot. My US number is in the 720 area code. Russia's intl country code is 7, evidently.

When I call then from Spain, T-mobile knows that I'm international, so they format it accordingly by adding a +. But they appear to not know that I'm dialing using a US phone, so they don't add the +1 (just the +). Therefore, the recipient's phone sees +7 and formats it as a Russian number.

I just purchased an Apple iPhone one week ago and it is now having this issue after using it for five days. I am not sure what is going on. It is really frustrating when loved ones are calling in and it is recognizing the phone number from a foreign country. Please let me know what can be done and how I can get this fixed.

I was having the same problem for months and just fixed it using what @jorfanakos wrote and it worked:

If you check under 'phone' in setting (iPhone users), the 'My Number' probably has a + in front of your phone number. I tried removing the + by re-entering my phone number and it would not accept the change.

So I looked further down where it say 'Show my caller ID" and clicked on it. What I did was turn it OFF, wait 2 seconds and then turn it ON again.

Then you return to the phone page and you should see the + is gone from you phone number when looking at the 'My Number'.

Et Voila! 😊

Hope this helps!

has this helped? i'm seeing the same issue. latest IOS version on iphone XS. US phone numbers showing up as international.

I have been working with T-Mobile tech support.  The reset the caller the ID on all the phones (disable / re-enable / re-entered the names) and reset the Home Locator Registry.  it has been 3 days and it *seems* to have fixed the problem on the phones.  We are monitoring and will wait for a full week from today before closing the ticket.

Feb 21, 2019 - same issue here on all our T-Mobile iPhones.  The other family iPhones / colleague iPhones with different carriers using the same current 12.1.4 iOS don't have this issue.  It does not seem to make a difference if the incoming caller in my address book or not, nor does it make a difference if they are in my address book and their number has  +1 at the front .... most of my incoming calls from local US numbers are all appearing as international inbound calls.  For example I live in 610 area code and calls are coming in as +61 Australia.
