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

RE: Impossible to upload a csv to Phonebook
Other options when exporting to CSV-file directly from an Excel sheet.
To set the text attributes before saving.

UTF-8 Character set ---- Komma separated ---- Text marks "none" ---- Ending lines by CR (= Carriage Return) or CR + LF (LF = Line Feed)
