Both my phones S7E/Note 8 (Note 9 on order)are Sim Free and are none Vodafone firmware and Wifi calling works
Just search over past phones releases and your see you have to ring surpport and get to send the config files
Call surpport and and say "wifi calling" then ask the rep to "update provisoning" they can use the S9+ templete as its the same phone basically
Reboot and Wifi calling "should" work

Yes but only if and when Vodafone add the Samsung Note 9 model it'll work even though it's not been bought from Vodafone.
And if your on an eligible tariff and contract type.

*Update*
Got my sim free Note 9 today direct from Samsung (24/08)
Rang 191 and used instructions and wifi caaling is now working

have done that here as well They told me to text "calling" to 97888 and then it should work will let you all know

does not seem to have worked here they have also refreshed the wifi calling setting my my account last night and still no option on the note 9 for wifi calling

Did they update provisioning ?
Try this .. goto your account online disable wifi calling give it about an 1 hour then text 97888 after getting the wifi is turned on text
reboot phone and check again
If not ring up and get them to update provisoning

not having much luck here I have rang them again they say please give it another few hours , Just checking it's not me missing something the setting should be under the phone settings ?
** Just got text to say I can now use "Data while abroad" No one asked for that to be turned on all i asked for was WIFI Calling to be turned on or should i say "update provisioning" **
