AlwaysOn Wi-Fi calling: cheaper than expected

AlwaysOn announced that its initial Wi-Fi calling price was wrong, and that people can expect to pay far less for the service.

50c per minute - better.

Somehow I can never get onto these wifi networks so I just give up. Surely it must be simple to connect without having to give credentials all the time. Maybe I am missing something or I am just technologically challenged. Either way I know whatapp

Hahaha it's not a free service. You get directed to a landing page. Unless you buy a Samsung phone and download.

Whatdat?

OT: These marketers specialise in being clear as mud about their product!

1. Does the price include the data cost?
2. What does "do nothing mean"?
3. How will you be sure you are using the wifi network and not cellular?
4. With an app "running in the backgroud" how do you know it is functioning?

You do need to have a browser open (for the free service) but your details get stored after you log on the first time so it's easier after that.

Good news: That's a lot better pricing and the access mechanism sounds a lot easier.
