Depending on your phone type, you just call one person and there should be an option to "add a line" or "add a caller".

Question

Can I monitor who is attending my conference call?

Community Answer

No, you must get each person's consent. If someone disagrees, then they cannot be included in the conference call.

Question

Where do I find "Merge Call?"

Andreaslag

Community Answer

It's a button that says "Merge" or "Merge Call". Its commonly a symbol of two arrows merging into one. (Don't confuse it with the "Swap" button.)

Question

After clicking the merge button, I see a message that says 'unable to conference call'. Do you have any idea what the problem might be?

Community Answer

Your service provider may not support conference calls at all. Call them and ask if they support this service. If not, you could try getting a different one and see if that helps.

Question

Can a landline be on a conference call?

Marco Lawson

Community Answer

Yes, a landline can participate in a conference call. Most modern landline phones have a "conference" or "merge" feature that allows you to add multiple participants to a call. If your landline doesn't have that option, you can still join a conference call by dialing into a conference bridge number provided by the host of the call.
