That will match if there is at least one number in the string. I think you need something like /\A[0-9]*\z/ or /\A\d*\z/ or possibly even better you could use something like validates_numericality_of :phone_code, :only_integer => true, :greater_than => 0 Though I think this would allow a leading + character.
