... a couple of different cards (last time it was an XL card) and never had any problems phoning home to NZ however sending texts has always been totally unreliable - some we sent to Vodafone were received but none to Telecom. Now we just stick to phoning as its so cheap anyway. I think last time we got the SIM card with credit for around $NZ12 and that lasted our whole trip including about 5 (longish) calls home to NZ and several local calls.
Hope this helps
