Audio Conferencing Service
Audio Conferencing is one of the easiest and most cost-effective ways to get people together for a meeting. You can bring together almost anyone, from anywhere, at a time that suits you all, and with less wasted time, energy and money.
For the conference to start, participants dial an access number and enter a pin number when prompted. The conference convenor dials an access number and uses a Host pin to activate the conference. Once everyone has joined the call, your meeting can begin.
Please contact Helpdesk for Audio Conference Account booking and charging options.
