What is Conference Calling?
More than 2 people on one phone call. Also called 'Telemeeting', 'Telephone Conference', 'Audio Conference', you can dial in from anywhere to join the meeting. All you need to take part is a normal telephone (or mobile). Callers dial into a phone number, enter a PIN code and then can all talk to each other.
