Over the border in the Netherlands we also do this and it annoys the crap out of me coming from another country.

In Belgium as well.

It even annoys me as a native, because it makes writing down a number someone else tells you irritating since it isn't in the same order.

That is why I usually just give single digits when telling someone a phone number.
