Unlimited free calls on 15GB/30 Days International Data Pass and Wi-Fi Calling
I was told by a retail sales rep at a T-Mobile retail store today that unlimited free calls to/from/within Simple Global countries on International Data Pass only works on Wi-Fi Calling and that with...
WiFi calling is thru data line, not voice line. So it should be totally free (this depends on your plan too, if you have unlimited calling within the U.S.)
I was traveling and working remotely around the globe for last 10 years (Taiwan, Japan, Singapore, Thailand, Maldives...etc) Never receive any charge on Wifi Calling. There is one time I was on the phone for over 4 hours!
But be aware that iPhone sometimes dropped out from Wifi Calling connection. There were couple times before I try to make the call, I noticed my U.S. number's signal didn't say 'T-mobile Wifi Calling' at the end. I had to turn off/on Wifi connection on the phone and wait till it registered the Wifi Calling.
I'm currently traveling in Thailand. I have the Int'l plan. I've traveled here many times in the last 20 years. Just in the last year, I've had problems where my phone will not connect to local networks. I can't connect automatically or manually. I am only able to use my phone when I have a wifi signal. I noticed that occasionally, I can use Google maps, but can never use any messaging apps without wifi.
What is happening?? I can’t get a straight answer out of Tmobile, and I don’ thave the patience to sit on hold for an hour to talk to somebody who will tell me it’s the local service and not Tmobile.
F***ing fed up!!!!
