My wife has no T-mob coverage in her work building. Her Samsung wifi calling works nicely but she does not like Android and loves my 810. I would happily get her a WP or give her mine if only...

I think I'll be switching to the new HTC ONE coming out in late April since Windows Phone doesn't want to gives us WP users the WIFI calling we all need. At least they could give us a heads up that their working on it.
HTC ONE has something like tiles, it's called Blink Feed. Their like live tiles, they call them Widgets I think. Looks really cool and it's an Android phone which I hate to switch to since I've always had WP and WM since 2008. -

If MS really does want to leave the kiddy table and join the grown-ups (Android, iOS...and yes, even Blackberry), basic features like wifi calling NEED to be included.

I hope this is a software feature. If so, Microsoft, would you please update handsets such as the Lumia 810 to enable this wifi calling feature. It's depressing to think that all these Android phones have this capability on T-Mobile, but not WP8.

WiFi calling is fantastic on Blackberry. Not having it on my Windows phone is a really big disappointment!!

I was told that WP8 would support WiFi calling about a month before it came out, apparently the T-Mobile team had just been trained by Microsoft on the new WP8 platform, so I decided to wait... you see I have no cellular connection at my office so WiFi voice would be ideal, additionally I travel, sometimes internationally, again WiFi voice would be ideal. About 2 weeks after I got the phone and was trying to set it up and test it, I found out that WP8 doesn't support it... additionally I found out that TEXT messages are a voice application, so WP8 users can't receive or send TEXT messages over WiFi either.
Although I love everything else about the phone, this might push me to Android or IOS.
I'm reading the other posts... does Microsoft even read these? I see no comments by MS?

As much as I love windows phone as an operating system there are two things holding me back, well one really. I can live with the lack of a 3rd party keyboard, though I would miss swype quite a bit. Wifi calling though, is the sole reason I haven't switched from android. I go out of country on a fairly regular basis, so wifi calling is integral to my life. No wifi calling, no deal.

WiFi calling is essential! T-Mobile provides it for practically all phones. Need it for Nokia 810

PLEASE IMPLEMENT FREE WIFI CALLING... BETWEEN WINDOWS PHONES AT LEAST! This is actually an issue. Myself and others are turning to third party apps to do cheaper internet calling. Why don't you just make it native!?
Microsoft has the capabilities!
It's mighty frustrating to see BBM show off its free BBM voice calling while Windows Phone lags in the past in this respect! The Windows Phone OS is a beautiful piece of work! Really; I love it. There are some places where Windows phone OS needs some help! Stop flailing in old and frustrating technology! Microsoft!, Please!, roll out native WiFi calling capability in the next Windows Phone Software Update! I am very much looking forward to seeing/using it!
Sincerely,

I've have been using Windows OS since 07' and love the "live tiles" format since its inception in 10' but if Microsoft doesn't install an UMA capability by September when my contract is up I am switching to an Android or IPhone. I don't want to but I'm tired of dropped calls in my house. MICROSOFT, WINDOWS PHONE NEEDS WIFI CALLING ASAP! If you don't work on this problem you will lose and not gain new customers.

Wi-Fi Calling or UMA is a must for me, to bad because I really want to try out a Windows phone.

I have wanted a Windows phone for syncing purposes and I am very sad to find that wi-fi calling is not supported so that I will not be spending my $$ on a windows phone. PLEASE get wi-fi calling on windows phones.

I am a TMO customer who gets zero reception at work. Luckily, I have wi-fi calling on my android device. I would love to switch to a Windows phone but the lack of wi-fi calling is the only thing holding me back.
