Canada and using esim

Collie · ‎07-03-2024

Hello, visiting Canada will be installing an esim for data. Data roaming off, Wi-Fi calling on.
Will be calling uk ( home ) numbers either using WhatsApp or over Wi-Fi.
will be calling local ( Canadian numbers ) using Wi-Fi calling.
Will I be charged for making phone calls ? I believe not to uk numbers but what about local ?

Thanks.

WiFi calling is not supposed to work abroad. However, if for some reason it does connect, calls placed over WiFi calling are treated the same as calls made over the mobile network. You would be charged the same local rate as you would be if you made the call with WiFi calling turned off.

Thanks. Canada is eye watering expensive from Three. I’m buying an esim for Canada so what I’m trying to find out is when I’m in Canada will Three charge a call charge when phoning Canadian phone numbers over wifi ?

If you’re using the Canadian number then you will be charged the applicable rate set by the Canadian provider.
