[PLUG-TALK] Wifi calling without phone number

Most months I make and receive no phone calls at all. For some time my
Android 12 phone has had no service because I just stopped paying the
bill. Today, with the phone connected to my home wifi, I attempted to
make a call, assuming that it would go out over VOIP, but the unpaid
service (Visible) intercepted the call and told me that I had to call
customer service, presumably to get me to pay the bill. I had a
different idea; I removed the Visible sim card and restarted the phone.
However. I was still unable to place a VOIP call because the phone
complained that I had no phone number. I installed several phone service
apps, and got the same results from all of them.
I also tried making a phone call from a computer, but the web page just
said 'Ringing' indefinitely, without ever connecting, regardless of
whose web page I tried it from.
What is the secret to making phone calls over wifi?
