Are you sure "separator" parameter refers to the char between the fields.

If true your problem will remain because, as you mentioned earlier, your problem is fields with comma. 

I think separator should be ...

separator= ";"

Good luck anyway

Ideally in a proper csv file

we will have double quotes for every value

"23242,676","87878","78766"

something of this sort.

thanks,
