Indeed looks like a rate of 0.5 cents /minute. But this can change anytime.
But normally their rates even for uk mobile are low, you can find it for 5 cents on some of their sites.

I only wonder how the app on your phone is working. Does it make a data connection to trigger the callback, sent sms or make a call.
In case of data connection if might get expensive using some providers when outside your home country. some just charge minimum of 100kb and this will cost you a lot.

I'm trying to figure if this is any good while I'm traveling abroad, but don't understand the Easycallback rate structure -

the site says:
* - a connection fee of €0.039
* - the charges for the call to your mobile
* - the charges for the call to the destination phone number.

what are the "the charges for the call to your mobile"? is this from Luxembourg, where the company is based? or does it mean whatever your own carrier charges (which is unavoidable, and not Easycallback's problem)?
e.g. if I'm roaming in Europe with a UK orange sim card, receiving calls is around 14p/min; roaming in Canada with my US TMob sim is around $1/min.

So I'd pay the roaming inbound charge, plus the Luxembourg to US or UK charge, plus the outgoing charge to final destination?
