Going to New Zealand - how to get data sim card for 10 days?

Hi all,

I'm going on a holiday to New Zealand for 10 days and am wondering if I can get any data plan (perhaps with Vodafone) for my iphone while I'm there (I dont need any voice plan)

1) Can you advice me on how to get the plan? Do we need to have a valid local address there to sign up a plan, or can I use my Singapore address?

2) The other option is the to sign up the prepaid plan - but I cant find any data plan that comes with it... help!

3) I'm currently on Starhub MaxMobile Ultimate plan here in Singapore - any idea if the roaming charges are alright? I heard it'll cost a bomb to do data roaming there.

Please help!!

Thank you!

Hi..

Try this web:

http://www.vodafone.co.nz/plans/prepay/ ... credit.jsp

I get my prepay plan when i was in NZ, so i not sure if u can do it here (SG).

My suggestion is that you sign up when you in NZ, the Vodafone shop can be found in any shopping mall. It will be cheaper and sometime they even have promotion plan for you to chose.

Happy holiday.. :)

Anyway which part of NZ u going? maybe can share some travel trip to you
