Wi-Fi calling with Mudita Kompact on O2 network in UK

Hello Mudita fellows!

I am strongly considering a Mudita Kompact. Is anyone able to confirm/deny that Wi-Fi calling will work on the O2 network in the UK? Where I live is bucolic but effectively zero network signal, so Wi-Fi calling is essential.

Everything I’ve found on the topic is encouraging but leaves room for doubt - it seems carrier dependent, if someone can actually verify it works the phone looks perfect.

Thanks!

I don’t use O2 in the UK but EE, and they also do not make it explicit that wifi calling works with the Mudita Kompakt; and it does work. I understand from reading about the issue (because I had the same concerns as you) that the primary UK mobile networks (Vodafone, Three, EE and O2) allow wifi calling from all modern mobile phone hardware and SIMs. It’s not so clear with MVNO services that piggyback on these networks (Lebara, Tesco Mobile, Lyca, etc) which may have service limitations built in as part of their discount deal with whatever primary network they use. There appears to be no means of knowing what hardware works with what MVNO service before you try it.

This is not the direct first hand data you needed, I know, but it may be another bit of evidence useful to someone.
