---+ Accounts for Telephone conference, etc.
Telephone Conference account
We use a fly-by-night teleconference account with nocostconference.com . There is no 1-800 number.
- dial 712-432-3900 to connect
- enter the Conference Access Code: 6613295#
- if you are managing the call, enter the Moderator Code: 9434371 as well
We've had some trouble with the call quality of the above conference line, so we're trying a new one:
- www.instantconference.com - if you need to sign in to the webpage, the username is matt.dobbs@mcgill.ca and pw is the usual wiki 314 one. Using the webpage during a call, you can mute-all, record to mp3 (activate from phone with #9), or other things.
- dial 218-339-2626 to connect.
- enter the Conference Access Code: 993714#
- you will have to UN-mute yourself by pressing *6
- if you are managing the call, enter *993714# instead. The PIN is: 7701 .
- 2011-07: To get this working, we had to log into the webpage which activates the leader code. Also you can unmute everyone manually. Once we did that, the quality was pretty good.
SKYPE Account
- our group SKYPE account is WinterlandCosmology and the password is the same as the usual group login one for the wiki. This account has unlimited long distance out to north american phones, so you can use it to make phone calls when you're travelling or whatever. There should be a credit on the account for calls elsewhere in the world. It is a "premium" account, so you can use it for video-conference calls (multiple users).
USA Cell Phone
Matt has a pay-as-you go cell phone for use in the USA on the AT&T network ("go-phone"). It costs $1 for each day it is used for calls, + 0.10 per minute anywhere in the USA. If you're traveling to the USA for research you're welcome to borrow it.
- Number (631) 413-0126 (New York area code)
- passcode 0126
- Charged with $100 on April 9, 2009 (expires after a year).
- if you have a USA credit card, you can charge it online or by dialing 611. Otherwise you have to buy charge-ups at stores like walmart. Please buy only the $100 ones, since they expire after a year. Matt will reimburse you.
- please use a calling card (like pincity.com) for out of country calls.
