About a month ago, I received a notice that my cellphone carrier, Tello, was dropping 3G service and moving to VoLTE. Fine, says I, my phone passes their check based on IMEI number. Discover that I can't make calls out, period. Tech support is useless, saying that they can't assure that my phone will work on VoLTE--and get this--they can't assure me that VoLTE is available in my coverage area!
Their suggestion? That I use WiFi for calling. Well, hell, I've got VoIP set up here, so why would I want to make cell calls from within my own home?
I did find that 2G connected and worked just fine, but apparently Tello doesn't like that I'm doing it.
Oh, apparently VoLTE != LTE. It's marvel that I still have the hair that I do.
