Netherlands phone numbers are accessed from UK phones by dialling 00 (to access the international exchange) and then 31 (to route the call to the Netherlands).
When dialling from a mobile phone you can normally replace 00 with + (The idea is that + will work in any country, irrespective of what the international access code is in that country). So I would have expected +31 to work on your phone. Since it doesn't, try sending a text to the number which is displayed on your phone, but replacing + with 00.

The Key+ normally replaces the required internation access code from whatever country you are calling from.
This key when dialing is usually held slightly longer than pressing a normal number, but if it is listed in your 'phone book' or showing as a 'received call number' .This should access automaticaly. Most (if not all) of the mobiles in The Netherlands start with just a '6' after the country code. There should be another eight digits after the '6'. it is worth triying the 00316 incase your phone doesn't recognise the key+
Good luck!
