The phone number and the address name different countries
The number was allocated to one country and the address stands in another. Both answers are good; they simply do not agree.

What it means
The phone `country` comes from the numbering plan the number was allocated under, and the address `country` from the register the address was checked against. Neither is a guess.
This is ordinary for people who moved country and kept their number, for expatriates, and for anyone billing a company abroad. It matters when you expected the two to match.
What to do
Weigh it beside the rest of the answer. A difference alone is not a reason to refuse anyone.
