They hope you will take out a subscription so you can call landlines/mobiles etc... (I did, cheap too!)

And no, there is no catch.... skype to skype is FREE.... I even have it on the iphone and works great.

Another app is "Viber".... for smartphones... family calls for me is free.

Be aware, you are using data when you use VOIP, so if you have a broadband limit be aware you could exceed it.

Skype's a great programme, still the best in my opinion.

Well with a business based in Ireland but trading with the UK I have moved most of my banking to the UK inc savings and investments. I believe STG is still a much safer bet, and many business like me are doing likewise.... the downside is that Ireland & euro will continue to become haemorrhaged while this persists… but it’s me or them…. No contest
