People I'm calling complain I keep cutting out. Am I getting Wifi calling?
- 13-05-2025
Have finally worked it out! Even though Wifi calling is enabled, my phone is always using the signal from the mobile mast to make the call, even if that signal is very weak, hence the poor sound quality. After trying everything else, I switched my phone to airplane mode, making sure the Wifi was switched on. This disconnected my cellular signal to the mast, and thus forced my phone to use Wifi calling. All I have to do then is remember to switch airplane mode off when I leave the house, so that I can use the mobile signal as usual to make and receive calls.
Im sorry to see this, i can understand your frustrations with WiFi calling especially within your home.
First, can you please check if your device is compatible for WiFi calling. If your device isn't on this list, then it may be that your device (rather than SMARTY) doesn't support Wi-Fi calling. You can check this here: Which devices are compatible with WiFi Calling? | SMARTY Help Centre
As your phone is showing that you’re connected to WiFi, you can try restarting the router to understand if the issue is with your WiFi connection.

Hi Rachel, I have contacted on line help and they suggested removing my sim card for 10 minutes, switching phone off, putting sim back in, and restarting phone. Still no joy.
