How the Dial-Out Feature Works
Why use the optional 'dial out' feature ? Three basic reasons you may need or want to use leader 'dial-out #1 Your participant may be located in a country that does not offer a toll free access number but you still want that participant on the call. The moderator of the conference call can easily dial-out to them and bring them in to the call with a few simple keypad commands. #2 As a lower cost alternative to having the international participant use the available 'toll free' number from their country, you can use the 'dial-out' feature to cut costs. #3 There is a toll free access number for the country where your participant is located but the phone he/she is using has local carrier restrictions on dialing toll free numbers. You could use the dial-out feature to quickly bring this participant into the conference call. If you have participants located in other countries, the 'dial out' feature enables you to bring those conferees in to your conference call. The participant will not incur long distance charges since you dial-out to them. Your account would be billed for the applicable dial-out rate.
