Dear Customer,

Good day. This is Jacky from Yealink Technical Support Team, nice to meet you.

I did the same try as you, and I also encountered a similar problem, we suspect that there are some compatibility issues with Excel. If we use another editor, such as Notepad++, it is OK.

We find another way which is more easy, we can produce a XML file through "Yealink phonebook Generation Tool", and import the file to the phone, then achieved the feature. Maybe you can have a try and share the result, the guide I have attached, you can refer it.

Best Regards,

Jacky
