I think the issue remains that the format you are passing is not considered a
valid format, and is getting ignored. You can confirm this by providing a valid
number format for comparison. I tend to use a custom formatter for this
purpose, keeping the phone number as a string. It is more robust and allows for
non-U.S. number that may begin with 0.
