Enabling Wi-Fi Calling Internationally

By sheer coincidence, I have discovered how to enable WiFi calling on my Koodo eSIM overseas. I’ve never had any luck with using WiFi calling on previous trips. The only configuration changes that I applied this time were putting the iPhone in Airplane mode, disabling location services, and enabling WiF. I did all of this before I left Canada. Whenever I connect to a local WiFi hotspot, I have Koodo WiFi!

I’m not sure what will happen if I enable the GPS radio or turn off airplane mode and connect to a local cell tower. Does anyone know?

EDIT: Thanks for all of the feedback! After using WiFi calling for over 24 hours outside of Canada, it seems if I disable location services for WiFi calling (as mentioned by u/ry29- below) then I can use the feature outside of Canada.

At this point I’m convinced that Telus is aggressively tracking the user’s location and attempting to cripple this capability. As a technology standard, WiFi calling will work anywhere in the world, but Telus has implemented some logic to artificially prevent it from working outside of Canada. If any of this is wrong, I encourage an engineer from Telus to respond and explain the rationale behind this process. Otherwise, I hope that the CRTC looks into this.
