With so many messaging apps offering free voice and video calls, are dedicated international calling services still relevant? I used to rely on one for talking to family abroad, but now I’m wondering if switching entirely to data-based apps makes more sense. What do you think?

I think international calling apps still have their place. Not everyone has reliable internet, especially in rural areas or developing countries. Sometimes, a direct phone line is just more stable. It’s also nice not to depend on Wi-Fi all the time when you need to reach someone urgently.

I still use one of those calling apps because my relatives live in areas with spotty internet, and regular app calls often freeze or distort voices. Before choosing, I read several user experiences on https://rebtel.pissedconsumer.com/review.html to get a sense of real-world reliability. It helped me decide which platform handled connections better across different regions. I’ve noticed that sometimes using Wi-Fi isn’t even the issue, local networks or weather can affect quality too.
