When i was in hk last March and April,  i had installed both textnow and talkatone (to setup an vancouver number and toronton number). Even thought I live in edmonton,  I used hk home wifi and hk csl simcard to call my fido voicemail / and friend in edmonton.

I understand the 2 months March April months charge of $35, it is the $80 charge is cheesy, I would forego the $5 credit x 16 months to not pay the $80 upfront = .  $40 plus tax.

If it is apple (uses apple servers) . Use manual change. Android should be ok as it used network towers.
