Does Vodafone Wifi calling allow text messages to be sent and received?  If not when will it be enabled?

Being able to receive text messages has become very important as many banks send codes to a mobile which have to be entered to login to their web sites.

Definitely SMS. Received a text message from a company today whilst phone was in airplane mode with WiFi calling enabled. Also the iPhone menu shows SMS being supported now.

As of yesterday I now appear to be receiving SMS over WiFi as well. My suresignal died, no SMS over WiFi and no possible replacement and when I rang they said that SMS over WiFi was "happening soon". And then, yesterday, it appears
