Amir,
Thanks for your reply. You almost certainly know that debugging
progresses by cutting the problem into pieces.
So that possibility is now excluded: in certain countries, possibly not
all, the phone numbers of mobile phone ISP's contain strings with a
number of 9's, possibly similar in purpose to the leading and closing
bar codes start and end delimiters. Just a guess.
Sorry that I cannot help more.

Hi Jacques,
99999 is just a random choice, any number gives ERROR. It seems it
ignores the number and ATD gives an error, doesnt matter what comes
after that.
If I connect it though the serial port it works perfectly.

suggest in any way that you are not using a straight plain usual phone
company hardwaried line, but rather a mobile phone?
If my guess is right, the mobile phone company is the place to ask which
number string you should use.
But my guess is wrong and 9999999 is a random choice.
