Have a question about how FreeConferenceCall live conferencing facility works while you are dialed in? Below are the instructions to get you started. If you have any questions please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
Instructions
When using your free conference call number you must notify your callers by giving them the date, time, dial-in number and access code. All parties will use the same dial-in number and enter the same access code, followed by the * or # key as specified below. Host: When prompted, enter the assigned access code, followed by the * key. Participant: When prompted, enter the assigned access code, followed by the # key. Once connected to the free conference call, every caller will be able to talk. Every caller will also have access to the touch tone commands listed below. Recording Instructions During the free conference call, the host can start recording at any time by pressing 9. The system disconnects him/her from the free conference call and prompts for the Subscriber PIN. If the Subscriber PIN is valid, the host is returned to the conference and all attendees are notified that the recording option has been started. To stop the recording, the host will press 9 again. Please Note: Our system holds one recording at a time in your account. Everytime the recording feature is activated, the previously recorded conference will be overwritten. To prevent from losing your previous recording, login to your account and download the file to your computer before your next conference call. Play Back Instructions To listen to the recorded conference, the host must provide attendees with the play back number and access code. Please note, this number is different from the conference dial-in number. When users call into the recording playback number, they will be prompted to enter the access code. Once confirmed, the system will play back the recorded conference. During play back, the user can scroll forward or backwards through the recorded conference. You will find the play back features below.
