Phone number length limitation???

Question

I have a few international numbers that I use a calling card to call. On my RAZR and then Blackberry this I stored these numbers as:
877-736-7925,accnt#,pin,phone# or 877-736-7925,1233214567,1234,011861064703115
When I moved my contacts on to my iPhone it does not dial this number. No error message, no nothing, the number just flashes when I tap it. If I remove the final phone# it will dial but that defeats the purpose.
Any suggestions?

Hello -
Please use the following logic (copied from Oracle)
phone as String
     input "Enter your phone number:" phone
     if phone.isMatch('/[1-9]\d{2}-?\d{3}-?\d{4}/') then
         display "OK, a valid phone number"
     else
         display "ERROR, invalid phone number"
     end1. First, a digit between 1 and 9: [1-9]
2. Next, two digits (from 0 to 9): \d{2}
3. Then, an optional dash: -?
4. Three digits: \d{3}
5. Another optional dash: -?
6. Finally, four digits: \d{4}
