Galaxy S7 Edge Video Call Problem

Co2-UK

Using a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge and I want to video call my contacts but I can't because the video call icon (green camera) is not available. Why is this and how can I get it to work? I know two other people with the S7 Edge and they can video call people fine.

Hi,

 

Are the other people on Vodafone too. 

 

Some info.

You may need customer service to enable it for you. 

 

Have you considered Google Hangouts or Skype as alternatives.

Thank you for the link. How do I find out if video calls are included in my plan?

As mentioned then you may need to speak with customer service on 191 or Live Chat to provision your account for video calls. 

 

Are the other people using iPhones ?

 

Have you selected 3G as your connection type in the phone ?

 

This is the device guide for the 6 edge but should be similar.

Other people are using the S7 and the S7 Edge. Both can video call me but I can't VC them. Yes I do have 3G selected.
