Hello, I am in New Zealand, and it works fine here. VO always announces the name of the caller if in my contacts. Also, the last time I was in the states last October, VO announced the names of my callers if in contacts. I am using an iPhone 4 running iOS 5.1.1.
In other words, I am not experiencing the problem you have when using the international + dialling sequence. What carrier are you using? I use Vodafone here in NZ, and was on AT&T in the states.
