Toll access number (not Toll Free) for our lowest cost and 'unlimited' MM Start Visuals Plan.

The access number provided for the Unlimited Flat Rate plan is not toll free. It is a standard U.S. telephone number.

The toll access number assigned to your 'unlimited flat rate plan' plan will be located in Texas, Iowa or Nebraska, the conferencing bridge locations.

Most of our flat rate customers do not care that the access numbers are not local to them because of the extremely good economics of the plan. And also because these days, more and more people are subscribed to 'unlimited long distance' plans. Or they use a call phone that has nationwide long distance calling.

Some of our customers have created their own 'local' access number. This strategy works if your group is located in the same area code as you.

Create your own local access number

Call Forward a Virtual VoIP Line.
If you have an 'unlimited' VoIP long distance plan on your office or
home phone line, you probably have a 'call forwarding' feature. You may be able to 'call forward' your own VoIP phone number to the conference call access number.

We know this is possible with Packet8.
Packet8 permits call forwarding of multiple callers with their 'business plan'. The feature is called 'auto attendant'.

Immediately prior to the conference call start time, simply use the auto attendant feature and 'call forward forward your line to the assigned conferencing bridge access number. This will create an instant local access number for your local conferees to dial-in.

Using Skype

We have some customers that dial-in to our conferencing bridge using Skype. This works well for participants located in the U.S. or other countries.

If your Conferees dial-in using a Cell Phone

If your conferees are using a cell phone to access your conference calls, chances are good that they will have the ability to call long distance without incurring any extra charges from their cell phone provider. So in this case, it would not make any difference whether they used a toll free access number or a standard telephone number. Air-time minutes would be deducted unless the conference occured during the cell phone users free nights and weekend period or if the cell phone user had an unlimited calling plan.

Unlimited Long Distance Plan Users

If your participants subscribe to an 'unlimited long distance' plans, dialing the toll (not toll free) access number will be at no additional cost to that person.

MM Start Visuals Toll Free Bucket Plan.
