My wife has a Koodo prepaid account. We used it last April in the US since she has purchased add-ons for voice, data and Texts. We are now back in the US for a month. She can originate and receive calls but she can’t hear the other person. Data and texts messages are OK. We had a Koodo rep call us on another line, who then passed me to somebody in the technical service. She told me that my wife would need a 5G phone so it would work in the US. She also said no 3G or 4G phones will work on Koodo prepaid accounts in the US! I know 3G phones no longer work in the US but 4G (LTE) should. My wife’s phone is an iPhone SE first generation, which is compatible with LTE and VoLTE. By the way, I can’t enable VoLTE on her phone, I get the message ‘’to activate LTE calls on this account, contact Koodo’’ The Koodo reps was no help to resolve this.
Finally I find it strange that we can still buy from Koodo add-ons for voice in the USA without any notice that the phone needs to be 5G compatible.
Could someone suggest a way to resolve this? We are in Florida and there is a hurricane coming. It would be nice to be able to call 911 if need be and hear the person answering our call!
