Yes. There seems to be different rates on the App and Website. I'd rather pay 3.99 then 7.99.

To get a virtual UK mobile number, sign up and download our app (compatible with iPhone and Android), and choose a plan that suits your needs. You can either port your mobile number or get a new one.

However it is £8.99 a month so a tad pricey if only needed to make the odd call compared even to the Skype fees mentioned above.
