Wifi Calling for OnePlus 3T

[Curr946 Level 26: Upbeat]

Hey folks, 

Been a while since I've posted, manly due to personal reasons that I'm not wanting to go into. 

Anyway, I'm just wondering if there is any update on Wifi calling for the OnePlus 3t yet? Seems odds that i keeps showing up on my account as an available add-on, but then not list my handset as supported. 

Thanks

No updates that we've heard of mate.

That is a good question, @Curr946 - let's see what unfolds.

Good to see you back @Curr946

No update as yet. O2 say more devices will be added but the cogs of O2 turn very slowly. ......

Hey guys, just checked on this one for you @Curr946, @MI5, @pgn, @jonsie! Unfortunately we have no ETA for Wifi Calling coming to the OnePlus 3 or 3T, but we are hoping to have it available on the OnePlus 5 sometime in Q4. We’ll make sure to keep everyone updated on when the functionality rolls out to new devices!

Will we ever see any older models getting wifi calling? At the moment I'm looking for reasons to stay with O2. Unfortunately I'm finding it quite a struggle at the moment.

Yes and a damn good app it is. Others though would tend to disagree.....😉

It works well for me - I work in an office that supposedly has a boost box but it is old and needs replacing, so the signal is a little patchy.
However, thanks to the wifi in the office I still receive and make calls and the same with texts...

I contacted O2 by live chat in the week to get WiFi calling enabled on my OnePlus 3T.  The clown on the chat claimed to have done this which included removing TuGo from my account.

I've just spent the morning back at home (where I have NO signal) on more live chats to find out when the 3T will be supported. End result was that the only option now is Tu Go.  However as the afor mentioned clown killed my Tu Go account I can't now re-register as it's not allowed!!!

Ended up on a landline call to O2 where I was told that there is no plan to provide WiFi calling on existing handsets that are not on the current list (except the Samsung 8 Plus as they were sorting this already).  Also no option to re-enable Tu Go even from the server end!

I am properly screwed until (and if) O2 can be bothered to upgrade my local mast (fat chance) or decide to upgrade the firmware on the OnePlus 3T - which they say they aren't going to do.  I can't help feeling that I upgraded my handset under false pretences.  Is there an ombudsman I can take these clowns to?
