Can you use VOIP from New Zealand to US on the Vonage Mobile global plan?

February 16th, 2010 - Posted by Kent

The following post in our Reader Question series is an actual user submitted question:

Q: We are looking for less expensive way to use Blackberry from New Zealand to US.  Can you use  VOIP from New Zealand to US on the Vonage Mobile global plan?  Does it include BBM use?

A: Unfortunately, Vonage Mobile is only for use inside the United States. Regular VoIP services can be used in any country with broadband (though there must be a U.S.-based shipping and billing address). Mobile VoIP is just beginning to gain traction, and cell phone service providers and VoIP companies are still working things out. After all, VoIP uses the cell phone's data infrastructure, but the VoIP provider gets the money.

One thing that may work for you is a Skype To Go number. You can get these in New Zealand, and they seem to offer pretty good savings. They work from any line, including mobiles. There are some connection fees associated with them, but it may save you some Kiwis.
