I use them mostly for calling to phones abroad. I can do that either from my computer or from my cell phone. Maybe they are not the cheapest on the market, but compared to what it would cost to dial directly on the cell phone they are pretty cheap.

For my use case?
- raxxorrax 5y agoPhone costs aren't really something I pay my mind to anymore, has become such a small position. For me these tools are for direct communication with direct contacts. Wouldn't want call centers contacting me through such a service, so I compartmentalize my usage with classical telephone services. > For my use case? Skype is fine for that, but I think Microsoft will discontinue it at some point.

Outgoing they show my cell phone number at least in some cases which is fine for my use cases. Have not studied whether I could control suppression. > but I think Microsoft will discontinue it at some point. I have been astonished that they have not done it already. But that's nothing I would lay sleepless for. That day I need to investigate alternatives.
