I asked Cortana to dial my wife's mobile number and she said sure. The next thing I heard was Verizon telling me I don't have an international plan. For some reason she decided to take the number from the contact and prefix it with the international prefix and country code, causing the call to fail. When I dialed the number manually from the contact it worked fine.

Is there some setting that will fix this, or is it the bug that will send me back to 8.1?

In your phone settings, do you have the "International Assist" option on or off? Might want to try changing that setting and see if it helps.

Was this a mobile or landline phone? It shouldn't ever be a problem to dial any number in the format +12125551212 from a mobile phone - Verizon should be smart enough to detect the national number. Dialing a full number like that from a landline is generally more problematic.

Thanks, it was mobile to mobile and yes I tried international assist. Whatever is going on didn't happen with 8.1, same contacts...

Do you have a +1 in front of the area code?

In my contacts? No.
