Great app

Great app. Today the call kept cutting out but I suppose the technology is not perfect. I love the cheap calls.

Freeze

My app on my iPhone keep freezing and can’t get a promotion codes
And can you update the up because it don’t delete messages I have sent

Was great til the rocketed the prices!

I used to get calls from UK to Canada for 0.9 pence, now it’s 9 pence. With free FaceTime audio of video, I have stopped using. Priced themselves out the running for me.

Top-up took over 10$ but never changed my account

The server does not work at all!!!!

Poor interface and calls often fail

I’ve been using this app for a few years and they have done nothing to improve the experience. When you use speaker phone, the person on the other side can hear their own echo. Wheb you come up against a voice prompt, often the dialed does recognise the input when calling over wifi. You’ll keep pressing a button without avail.

You will lose your money, avoid.

For the last 3 years the issue is “Sorry, we are unable to connect your call at this time” which occurs 99 times out of 100 even when I call my own number. Other times it doesn’t even get as far as that message.
I emailed customer services who replied but gave no explanation, assistance or offer to refund credit. Avoid.

Rip off

Twice now I have topped up and used for a couple of calls. When I open up again after some time I have little or no credit left! They taking all my money!

Highly recommended

It is really great app!!!

Excellent app

I’ve used FooCall for a few years and I’m very satisfied with it. The prices are very low and I’ve got the option to call via WiFi/4G or a local number, however since I’m with Virgin the latter is not available but that’s down to the network provider.
The only downside would be that at times there is quite a noticeable delay in the communication, however it’s still within the acceptable margin.

Phone calls disconnect often

Sound quality good, price fair, but the call keeps dropping regularly.

Doesn’t always work

I’ve been using Foo Call for years and there are now unfortunately some issues with it: 1) they delete your credit if you don’t use it within certain period of time - I’d call it pure theft. 2) At the point when my credit is low, Foo call won’t allow me to make any further phone calls until I top my account up even when I have about an hour of conversations left with my credit. 3) it is becoming more difficult to connect. I’m hanging online for ages sometimes and then I get cut off. This is happening even when my WiFi connection is very good. I actually count myself lucky if I manage to make a call!
I am now considering leaving Foo call.

Changing my rating they give me money back
Than I give them back my 5star rating

Avoid

Never seems to work, topped up 2.99 recently, this has gone to £1 straight away. The local number option gives me an error message and the cellular option only works on Wi-fi

They are set up to take your money

You can top up the account and after 180 days all that wasn’t used disappears! They take it! Yes the money you earned are taken away for no other reason but Terms and Conditions! It’s not even 12 months like in any other normal business or app. 180 days passes quickly and it’s your job to worry about it as they will take it without even notifying you! Vile practice. Vile company. App might work but it’s ethics are questionable one.

Money grabbing

Used to be a great application for international calls, but now they’re implementing predatory money grabbing sales tactics. Once you top up, you have to spend the credit working a month, if you don’t - your credit expires. Uninstalled
