How do I get VoLTE?

VoLTE or Voice over LTE is technology that enables voice calls on our 4G network.

It delivers some great improvements to voice calling. You can talk and browse at the same time using 4G. Plus, 4G voice calls are high definition (HD) for sharp, clear call quality.

To activate VoLTE, customers will need to turn 4G voice on in their device network settings.

Once the Service Provider Settings have been updated follow the below steps to request 4G voice.

  • Tap Settings icon on Home screen
  • Tap Mobile menu item
  • Tap Mobile Data Options menu item
  • Tap Enable 4G menu item
  • Select the Voice & Data option to enable VoLTE
