I’m looking for a privacy respecting service that will let me call a landline in EU. Please recommend something and thanks in advance.

    Get a local SIM or eSIM when you arrive. If you’re dealing with insurance, you might want to be able to receive calls too. Regarding privacy: good luck.

    I use Mobile VoIP. It’s a wrapper for which you need a separate subscription from one of the many voip sites. Go to MobileVOIP.com you should see a list of such providers. You can set your own caller id or no caller id.

        I’m currently using budgetvoip, but look through the list when my balance runs out, and find one that has good rates for where I want to call. Some of them have desktop app support, if that’s something you want. I have used voipyo and telbo in the past, but I’ll switch if I find a different provider with better rates.

    I’d look for getting a SIP number and use that with some softphone app.

    Your ISP could be selling those and there are some companies that sell them, ususally for businesses, but there’s smaller offerings for individuals. Usually paired with stuff like mail2fax, fax2mail, etc.
