Phone numbers should always be stored in a text format and never as in a number field. There are several of reasons for this. You never do calculations with phone numbers; you may have a zero at the start of a phone number, which would disappear if left in a number format and you may, as in this case, have other characters in a phone number that are not digits, which would not be accepted in a number format.
