TL;DR: not many carriers; not many devices.

Supported networks by country:

   Germany: Telekom

How can EE and BT be the only ones to support, surely it’s dependent on the underlying network, not the MVNO? If it’s a feature controlled network side, presumably it could be turned off at whim network side.
