Does anyone have any idea when Spark will support SMS over Wi-Fi calling, like One and 2degrees do?

Bonus points if anyone knows if Spark will support Wi-Fi calling from overseas in future as well...

You are requesting information that is confidential, no Spark employee will provide that info to you, and anyone doing so would get in trouble.

Has anyone checked to see if they have a job vacancy advertised for someone that knows how to do it ? :-)

It may or may not be confidential. I think there was already some 'we're working on it' advice or words to that effect. My next handset will have the capability and at that point I'll re-evaluate my main mobile provider for the next couple of years although I don't really want to.

SMS over Wi-Fi calling for SparkNZ was meant to be implemented if I remember correctly April 2023
