So, are we (Czechia) the only ones who use more than one way?

90+9 (ninety-nine literally) is the formal way to do it, while 9+90 (nine-and-ninety literally) is the informal way. You can easily hear both of the ways used in one sentence.

Niti og ni, 9*10+9 was used in Danish on cheques.
I doubt those exist anymore, though.
