I have a friend here who has the exact same 7 digit number as one of my UK business contacts.
Ire guy on 087
UK guy on 0780

But every time the Ire guy rings or texts, it comes up with the UK guys name as default.

Has caused me much confusion over the last few months !!

How can I differentiate them ? They are both in as different names and numbers, but no matter how i change the Ireland number (35387, +35387, 087 etc) it still tells me it's the UK man calling when he rings ?
