Kiddush on Yom Tov Via Telephone

Question

According to some Poskim, such as I believe the Tzitzit Eliezer, It is permissible to be Yotzei havdalah or Megillah over telephone. My question is, on Yom Tov, if one holds by this view may one hear kiddush via the telephone as ochel nefesh (a type of normally prohibited action permitted on Yom tov for holiday needs).

    No, it is forbidden to use the telephone on Yom Tov unless it is for Pikuach Nefesh.
