2. When you open the app, choose the name of a person you want to call from "Recents“ or "Contacts“. Or simply dial his or her phone number in the "Keypad".
Just keep in mind, that the phone numbers should start with the country code.
For example, if you are calling to UK, your contact‘s number should start with +44, not with 07 or 02.

This question is for O2 app users.
Some of you were surprised to come across the name “Call via MoreMins” in Messages of O2 app.

Temporary phone numbers are not associated with your permanent identity, unlike regular numbers. By using temporary numbers, you reduce the risk of being targeted through caller ID or contact lists should the number be disclosed or compromised.
For freelancers, small business owners, or avid online shoppers, using temporary phone numbers can minimize costs by avoiding unnecessary subscriptions and the incoming costs of spam calls or texts. If you need a number for a temporary or one-time use, paying for a temporary service may be cheaper than maintaining a full-time line for such events.
In most cases, temporary numbers are legitimate and legal for online verification. However, it's crucial to know the terms and conditions of the services you are accessing. Some platforms may prohibit using non-personal numbers for verification, so always verify your legal standing before use to avoid complications.
Yes, one of the key functions of a temporary phone number is the ability to make international calls or receive them without incurring hefty charges. It's a cost-effective means for those working or traveling abroad who need a local number temporarily.
