Hello Mike,
Yes it's fine when phone numbers have the zero at the beginning:
01234560987
But not when you get the internationalcode instead of the zero:
+441234560987
Or when someone gives you:
Hogsmeade 560987
The other awkward ones are reference numbers or bank details:
Our ref: ZX3273624F
And I've never understood why you usually get bank sort codes split into pairs,
but account numbers in one long string:
Sort code 65 43 21
Account number 67899876
If your plug-in would cater for all these cases, it would be great to have. I
say all this because I don't thnink the original need was for more readable
phone numbers, but more readable numbers in general, where the numbers don't
represent calculable amounts such as money..and how I wish I had
£1234567.89
Which would sound more elegant if it actually said
1234567.89 pounds.
Best,
Clive

It reads phone numbers OK because they start with zero.
I might have a go at writing an NVDA plugin to do this because it annoys me as
well.

Hi.
It seems to read phone numbers fine, but henry prefers all numbers to be
spoken individually I believe even progress bars so they read as 1 0 0
percent due to his hearing impairment.
Cheers,

Incredible.
