    All I can suggest is in the last paragraph of this article:

     

    Make a call with Wi-Fi Calling - Apple Support

     

    • Go to Settings > Phone > Wi-Fi Calling and make sure that Wi-Fi Calling is on.
    • Restart your iPhone.
    • Connect to a different Wi-Fi network. Not all Wi-Fi networks work with Wi-Fi Calling.
    • Turn Wi-Fi Calling off and then on again.
    • Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset Network Settings.

    Lesson to learn also: wifi calling is a carrier feature, suggest you call them to fix the issue.

    Problem fixed.

    My phone is locked to Fido and in spite of multiple Reset Network did not activate wife calling.

    So here is what worked for me...

     

    1) took out sim card

    2) reset network and shut down phone

    3) inserted a local SIM card and restarted

    4) obviously activation of local Sim card failed but it did something because...

    5) reinserted FIDO SIM card and wifi calling activation was successful.

     

    One important difference, WiFi calling no longer works if airplane mode is on. PITY!

    i Guess I just have to be careful wifi calling is ON before I answer a call.
