In this post we will discover how to configure Toll-Free Numbers for Dial-In Conferencing in Office365. Total time 5 minutes.

What is Dial-In Conferencing? (a.k.a. Cloud PSTN Conferencing or CPC)

Please see the following for more information: How To Enable Cloud PSTN Conferencing in Office365 in Skype for Business Online

What are the requirements for Toll-Free Numbers?

  1. You must meet the licensing requirements. See Skype for Business Online Licensing Overview for details.
  2. PSTN Consumption billing is required. See What is PSTN Consumption billing? for details. If PSTN Consumption billing is not purchased, you will receive an error message when attempting to acquire toll-free service numbers.
  3. For more information on Toll-Free numbers, see Getting Skype for Business service phone numbers

IMPORTANT: Existing toll-free service numbers can be ported from your existing telephony carrier. See Port a Phone Number to Cloud PBX in Office365 for more details on number porting. When porting, open a service request with Office365 Support to ensure the toll-free number being ported is configured to support higher concurrent calling capacity.
