Call costs?

Sure you might have X free minutes for a limited amount of calls in your country, but if you make VoIP calls overseas to avoid the usurious fees that some countries impose (or the ~35p per photo by MMS in UK) then you can start to see why folk like the functionality of WhatsApp.

Just not the slimy business practices of them now FB has the tentacles in.
