Issue with importing contacts from SIM

[shortskoolbus]

Hello All -

Please bare with me it is my first Android device here! Just got a mytouch 4g and i've tried to import contacts directly from the SIM, but it is doing something strange with the formatting...

For example I may have had someone named Aunt Shirley previously, and now it looks something like: "Aunt/2"

Or maybe a John Doe and now it looks something like "Doe;John/" for example. Also lots of the longer names are getting truncated now.

Anyway to get it to import from Sim without all the funky formatting issue?

Previous phone was not a smart phone, so can't export contacts or anything like that.

Thanks
