Dan, I'm not aware of any service other than Skype that lowers the cost of calling into conference call lines for those outside the U.S. However, I can tell you that a colleague of mine from Australia uses a US-based conference-call service and tells her Australian clients to use a low-cost calling card to keep their per-minute cost down. This is cheaper for her Australian clients than using a service based in Australia! I have been using Freeconferencecall.com very happily for the last two years for dozens of teleseminars. Yes, it's free. Marcia Yudkin Teleclass Veteran http://www.yudkin.com/teleteach.htm
