Callers can participate from any location and do not have to wait by the phone for a conference operator to call. An operator-assisted conference can also have up to 20 parties connected together. The conference operator will place the calls to each party. Any long distance charges will be billed to a departmental authorization code provided by the requesting department. This type of conference call allows up to 6 parties to connect together at a designated time by calling a predetermined telephone number.
Callers can participate from any location.
Unlike the Meet-Me conference, when the first person calls into the conference number, the phone will ring continually until the second person joins the conference.
