The "International Add-on" Trap
Major UK networks (EE, O2, Three, Vodafone) try to sell you "International Packs" for £10-£15 a month. These packs often only give you reduced rates, not free calls. You end up paying a monthly fee PLUS a per-minute rate.
With StartACall, you simply top up £5 and it lasts until you use it. No expiration, no monthly drain.
Common Questions
Do I need to change my SIM card?
No! StartACall works through your web browser (Chrome, Safari, etc.). You keep your existing UK SIM for local data/calls and use us for international calls.
Does this use my data allowance?
Yes, StartACall uses a small amount of data (VoIP) to connect the call. If you are on Wi-Fi, it's completely free of data charges.
Is the quality better than WhatsApp?
WhatsApp relies on both parties having good internet. StartACall connects your internet call to the real telephone network, so the person you are calling doesn't need internet or an app. This often results in much more stable calls.
