Wifi Calling on unlocked Galaxy S20

I bought an unlocked Galaxy S20 and put it on the Good2Go Mobile n/w (uses AT&T’s n/w). Apparently I’m unable to use wifi calling on G2G’s n/w because of AT&T restrictions.

Question: what if I bought an AT&T locked phone and then unlocked it – would I be able to use the wifi calling feature on the G2G n/w? My thinking: the IMEI would (should??) be registered w/AT&T…wondering if this would work or if AT&T would again block the feature since it would not be directly on their network.

Thanks
 
This will depend on both the phone and the carrier. Speak to your customer service representative with your carrier before you buy anything
Thanks Dannydet. I did talk w/Good2Go Mobile's 1st level of support but if they don't have a script in front of them they can't answer my question. They've deferred my request to their "technical" support twice now and I haven't heard back from them.

I've gone w/G2G for to reasons: 1) CHEAP! $20/ mo for 3G of data and unlimited talk/ text. (I'm retired so I need to watch how I spend my shekels :D) 2) they use ATT's n/w which covers my physical home location - I'm WAY out in the country.
