The concept provides that the voice line with no service defaults to the data line as a pseudo WiFi service and connects as if on a WiFi network. On dual sim iPhones the Status Bar displays "T-Mobile Using Cellular Data" instead of a carrier name. WiFi should be turned off as a precaution in case you might get a temp WiFi connection, which could be a chargeable call.
Why would cellular data not charge but WiFi charge??
