That is my understanding. Wifi calling is treated as on-net "home" calling.

Confirmed. Same for text messages. I have used in asia, south america, and
Europe. Just works.

For me this was a killer feature while traveling.... Or being in my
basement. But i think the free* International  data roaming in most
countries now takes the cake

Add T-mobile LTE and to that list.

I need one.

I'm using wifi calling on my T-mobile device now and then 'just 'cuz',
and it works a treat. Usually my cell coverage is excellent, but I'm sure
that someday I'll be in a spot where I need it, so I want to keep
exercising that path occasionally. :)

FWIW,

(Usually I wouldn't bother speaking about a specific vendor, especially
one that's arguably off-topic, but given the historical scuzziness of most
of the mobile vendors, and what T-mobile is doing now to improve the
situation; albeit with occasionally distasteful marketing theatrics, I
thought it worth mentioning ...)

Doug,

Just a question on T-Mobile and wifi.  If you are traveling to a roaming
country will wifi calls to #s back home be treated as non roaming calls?
