For a Q&D hack, have a look at /etc/isdn/devece.ipppX where X is the number of
the ISDN network device (probably 0). In there you should find lines like
this:
if [ ! -z "$REMOTEMSN ]
then
for MSN in $REMOTEMSN; do
isdnctrl addphone ${device} out $LEADINGZERO$MSN
done
fi
The important part is the $LEADINGZERO$MSN. In your case it probably reads
like +$COUNTRYCODE$AREACODE/$REMOTEMSN. If you just change that and adjust
the LEADINGZERO variable further up the script, you should be fine.

Read the isdnctrl manpage, search for addphone. An interface can have multiple
outgoing numbers that are tried in reverse order of addition upon automatic
dialup.
