Hello Tammy,

Yes it is £1.50 per minute to call America. But it is not a problem now. I have given my email to freecomferencecall.com <http://freecomferencecall.com/> and have an account. It seems they mainly rely upon donations. We’ll see how it works when the next class I signed up for is going to take place.

Thanks,

I understood that they made a living by participants calling in to a conference. So how do they make money from WiFi users? Is it really a free lunch?

>> This is my experience with using free conference call app. I went to  FreeConferenceCall.com and here you can find links to download their apps to a PC, IOS or Android. I chose to download the iOS app. This was free to download. Once I opened it it was mostly accessible with voiceover. You have the choice of joining or creating a new conference call. It gives you a choice to create an account but, I did not choose to do this and it is not necessary to use this app. I chose the join tab which gave me a field to type in the phone number and a second field to insert the passcode. I am totally blind and rely solely on voiceover. At first I was able to type in the phone number with no difficulty but, when it came to clicking in the password field this was not possible. What I did find that did work was to click the password field first enter the passcode then I was able to click in the phone number field and type in the phone number. Then I clicked the button to submit the information. A screen comes up and asks if you want to join using Wi-Fi or cellular I chose Wi-Fi. since I’m in the US, I have no idea if there would be any kind of charges or restrictions for users outside of the US. I think if you did choose cellular you would be using your data?.

I know less about that, but there are those on the list who will know that for sure. In order to use it you do not need to sign up with free conference call.com let’s figure out which classes you want whether their international in number and then we can go from there. Free conference call also gives you the option of signing up on the web. I do have an account myself and I can ask some questions about how To get into calls with web access. I do not have time to do this today in the United States, but will talk to some people and see what I can find out for you.
