| 622959 | 2007-12-19 21:45:00 | Depends what it is is (intern / country code) to dial from US to here. Then it'll be your mobile # |

Not sure if that is a Telecom restriction, but I have always used the international numbers on my Vodafone mobile - even for local numbers (ie I always load them to my phonebook as +649 for Auckland or +6421 for NZ Vodafone). This means I never have to worry about knowing international access codes if I'm overseas. And I send lots of texts internationally using these numbers. |

They have to dial their international toll access then country code 64 (NZ) then his phone number. They possibly could have different toll access codes for landline and cellphone or even a choice of calling card numbers for voice calls. |

| 622963 | 2007-12-20 03:54:00 | Just to sum up what Paul had said, it would be: 006421xxxxxxx 00 = International code 64 = New Zealand code 21 = Vodafone (the prefix "0" is omitted) Followed by the number Cheers :) |

Just give them +6421XXXXXXX . They should be smart enought to know what the international access code is.. |
