It’s easy with the network’s latest international calling offer

Those overseas folks won’t feel so far away with Vodafone’s super-low international calling prices.

Staying in touch with friends and family throughout Asia couldn’t be easier, because now Prepay customers can call both landlines and mobiles from as little as 10 cents per minute from your mobile, any time of the day or night.

For Prepay customers, it now costs just 10 cents per minute to call six countries (including China and India), with an additional nine countries across Asia costing 20c per minute, and Fiji and South Africa costing 40c per minute.

Vodafone’s General Manager of Consumer Marketing, Dave Gutteridge, says the new international calling prices are the result of Vodafone listening to its customers’ needs, and responding with a simple solution that allows them to talk for longer and for less.

“With this latest offer, there are no extra codes to dial and no calling cards you need to buy. Simply dial any mobile or landline number to any of the selected 17 countries, and you’re away talking.

We know our customers want the freedom to call international mobiles any time of day, and now, in some cases, it’s as cheap as calling from a landline, which sets this latest offer apart from the competition.

On-Account customers will also benefit from this great offer as of next month, so more of our customers – both new and existing – will enjoy these cut-price rates and the cost-certainty this offer provides,” says Gutteridge.

Along with Vodafone’s continuing ‘$2 for 60 minutes’ offer, from NZ mobiles to landlines in 30 destinations, the network has all your international calling needs covered.
