Here is a message someone else posted who had the same problem.

Hello All, Yesterday, on my beloved 8 Plus, Siri did read a couple of phone numbers as words and not as single digits. I could not consistently get Siri to do this but I was really surprised when it responded with a phone number starting in the billions. My first thought upon hearing this was, “What the …?” Just an F Y I.

Anyone else have this or know of a fix? Thanks. Using a SE 2020 -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
