Free conference call is not totally free. Each attendee will incur the cost of making a long distance call to connect with the conference bridge. The charges will not appear on an invoice issued by the free conference call provider, but as a charge for the minutes generated on each attendee’s individual phone bill, with the cost depending on what type of long distance plan he or she has in place.
The term of free conference call is based on the fact that the teleconference provider does not charge setup fees, or issue charges for use of their lines. The process is strictly a connection into a toll conference call, in effect a series of long distance calls that all happen to terminate in a common conference.
