You haven't stripped the "9" off the beginning of the number.  Where you've 
got ${EXTEN} in a Dial() statement, you need to change that to ${EXTEN:1} .  

To be honest, I didn't think anybody bothered with "9" for an outside line 
anymore.  Asterisk is smart enough to figure out how many digits you dialled.  
So in my dialplan, 3 digits is an internal number;  6 digits is a local 
number; and anything starting with an 0 is assumed to be an STD code and 
number  (all STD codes in the UK start with a 0.)
