Hello, my iPhone has wi-fi calling and I do most of my lengthy calls from either home or work where wi-fi is available. According to a reply above April 15, Consumer Cellular considers minutes used during Wi-fi calls as part of the Talk Plan.
Am I missing something? Hi Tim, thanks for your question! Therefore, your calls still use minutes. There is a difference between WiFi calling and calls over WiFi. FaceTime is an example of a call over WiFi. FaceTime calls do not use minutes because they do not use the cellular voice network. WiFi for data usage does not need the cellular data connection since WiFi was designed for that internet usage. Hi Jinx, thanks for your interest.
