Subject: Re: [etmf] Selection of telecon provider for calls
Great reminder Eldin.

What this actually means is that provision of international access numbers is free to the conference call host; conference call participants will be charged depending on their location. Many of the non-US dial-in numbers provided are categorized as premium rate numbers in the originating country. For example, the UK number would cost callers £0.54 per minute (approximately $53.00 per 1-hour meeting). > > I suggest that an alternative provider is selected that provides low-cost calls globally. This may mean that US-based members will pay a small charge rather than having a free number but will be fairer on a global basis. I propose using powwownow.com, costing 5c/minute for US/Canada callers (or $3.00 per 1-hour call). Other providers are available with similar charges. > > For consideration/discussion during our first meeting please. > > Regards, > Eldin.
