Nope doesn't seem to work now the window has been closed... But before that, yes they could as I activated a couple of phone numbers

darn, missed it : (
How is working for you guys?

tbh i haven't used it in vain

il keep the thread updated for when the next window opens

hopefully wont be too long!

Apparantly the invite window is open again.

And I just realised most people I use WhatsApp to contact with uses an iPhone... which is not compatible with the calling feature

. At least Facebook calling works for them...

I've just tried it and it didn't work (Android)

Are there any conditions? Like country or something

I haven't used it but keep accidentally pressing the call button instead of attach!!

After doing some testing it seems the latest what's app doesn't work with call feature

You need to be on version 2.12.7 or below for it to work

Click link, scroll down to the list of apk and choose 2.12.7

Thank you for this lmfy2k,works fine(after you pointed me in the right direction)

Thomss · 25 Mar 2015 at 23:16

lmfy2k, Thanks for the call! After I un-installed the latest version of WhatsApp that I was on and went down to 2.12.7 my WhatsApp database rebuilt from this morning for some reason so I lost your messages. Just wanted to say thanks for enabling the call feature though!

Cheers, Thomas.

Glad it working now, il try do as many as I can today, I'm at a customer site setting up servers all day so bare with me

Also it seems like if I've called you and you are on a different version to 2.12.7, your account still get activated but you just don't see the chat option, then upon installing 2.12.7 you will get the chat option available

AndyCr15 · 26 Mar 2015 at 06:39

I assume WhatsApp themselves will fix that though, so you could call, we wait for them to fix and it should work fine?

lmfy2k · 26 Mar 2015 at 06:42

Yeh mate, seems that way
