I currently have bt broadband and a bt mobile phone sim, looking at some sky mobile deals. Does anyone know if you can use sky mobile phone contracts and use wifi calling through bt broadband?
I need to use it as there’s no mobile signal for 7 miles.

It doesn't matter what provider is being used for the wifi as long as your mobile provider and phone support it you can use it on any wifi connection.

I live in a village with very little mobile signal. I use wifi calling at home, at friends houses, down the pub.

Network wifi calling has nothing to do with your wifi/broadband provider.
If your handset supports it and your mobile network offers it - and Sky does - and you have a strong enough wifi signal it will work. I use my american phone in the UK via wi-fi calling (in airplane mode except for wifi) connected to Sky wifi/broadband and it works perfectly.
