For those of you who still own a Samsung Galaxy S8, since VM introduced it, have you been able to get Wi-Fi Calling and 4G/VoLTE calling on your device?
Both work on EE but the S8 isn't on VM's supported list so presumably mileage will vary...

The coverage checker for 5G is available on the Virgin Mobile site at https://www.virginmedia.com/mobile/coverage-checker . If you pick 'New SIM or plan' and 'SIM' it's the 5G coverage checker.
Or if you sign into https://mobile.virginmedia.com and then the Coverage check that's on the Overview page for your mobile number will link to the appropriate option for the network your SIM is on.

Telford, but there is no 5G cover with VM (Vodafone), 3 is the only one that is here, My son has 3 and he gets up to 500Mbps download, upload is pants, 3 have more areas than anyone, hopefully Vodafone will pull their finger out, they only seem to upgrade cities.
