wifi calling not working?

Suddenly today wifi calling stopped working. I've done all the typical troubleshooting options. 

is there an outage occurring? When can I expect it to be back up? telus service is almost non-existent where i live, so i rely on the wifi calling capability.

Mine isn’t working in Ontario either. Seems to be maybe an outage?

Hey there,

 

Mine got back on by itself at 6h17AM Eastern today. Restarting the phone, router, turning wifi calling ON/OFF didn't work.

Can you send us a private message? We don't have any indications of an outage but we can investigate the issue

Just did!  Thank you, that's actually pretty good customer service.

 

It actually came back at 6h11 AM Eastern Time based on the SMS code that came it at that time (we have no tower here, so it only works with Wi-Fi calling, so the time is accurately)

I think you did though, or some sort of provisioning glitch happened, because it appeared to impact at least a few other people.

it is working now, hopefully stays up.

I am down again, but not it cannot even be activated again. It tells me that if it's the first time setting it up, that I need to be in a cell area, with wifi.

A Phone reboot resolved the issue this time around, but this is very concerning.
We had issues last year, around the same time of the year for over a month while with Fido.

Fido had to escalate the problem to Telus, and it ended up being a Telus Network issue.
The current issues are very similar to what happened last year before going awire.

No, it is literally a nightmare every time we try to contact them, whether it is online or on the phone so we do everything we can to avoid calling.
