I just got a rather strange SMS from vodafone, saying "thank you for asking us to turn off wifi calling".
very odd. i've asked no such thing. I have asked vodafone for clarification on this too, but I was wondering if anyone else has received it?

I've had a few of those over the years when I was with Vodafone, usually you would need to text a number first to get Wi-Fi calling enabled on your account. There is no charge for the service and many people actively want it.

It used to be opt in with Vodafone, but now Vodafone enable the option as standard, perhaps they just found some customers didn't have the option and turned it on, which triggered the SMS.

Nothing to worry about.

I believe it’s CALLING to 97888 to activate.

O2 does randomly notify about switching it off but it’s usually just a change in the local network (according to O2), and restarting your device resolves it.
