VoiceOver interpretation of numbers

for

Hello everyone,

Working with Voiceover on an iPad mini. Long numbers without commas
(these are actually ID numbers) are read correctly, that is

234543123 is read "two three four five four three one two three"

But if there happens to be a letter in the final position (as happens to
be the case in the domain I am using voiceover in) :

234543123G .... sunddenly becomes "two hundred thirty four million, five
hundred forty three thousand one hundred twenty three grams"

I can not find a way to turn of this "feature"!

does anyone have an idea? I have scoured the parameters and spent time
searching in the forums and userguides....
