I am currently in New Zealand and would like to call people in the UK. I have an ASUS laptop running 32 bit Debian 9 and a Huawei phone running Android 4.4.2 with a New Zeland phone chip. I generally have wifi access.
I can ask people I phone regularly to install some software at their end but I also want to make phone calls to regular UK landline numbers and UK mobile phones and of course the cost of calls is a factor. Can you suggest what software to get please? Skype is an obvious possibility but you seem to have to give your life history to Microsoft to sign up and the Linux version seems to be 64 bit only.
Finally if the software could record the conversation that would be an advantage but not essential.
Thanks.
