How To Use Skype for Conference Call with The Oath, Gathering Oasis, etc.

If you want to join any of the teleconference calls by way of using Skype this is how you do that.

For example sake I will be using The Oath Movement Number and Code.  If you are coming in via a different group you just simply follow the same directions using their number and their code.

Open up your Skype and click on the upper "Contact" section to add a contact.  When you do that a box will appear.  There are a number of options and many make the mistake of putting this in the phone number section.  IF YOU HAVE the paid calling program with Skype then that will work. If you are using the free version, say you are overseas, then ignore that section and go down to the "SKYPE NAME" section and in that section you put the phone number without ( ) or -'s.  .... " 5308811400 ".  Then open up your skype as if you were just going to talk to someone normally...  click on that number and it will open another box as it connects to Free Conference Call.  When it connects you will hear a voice ask for the code.  Down at the bottom of that screen...  slide your cursor that way and a box will pop up with icons such as a phone, a plus sign, etc....  and there you will see a square box made up of nine other smaller squares.  That is your dial pad.  In that pad you type in the code 324248#.  Do not forget the # at the end or it will just prompt you to enter the code again.  Once done...  it will connect you into the conference call.

Any questions then ask.  If you try to ask me after 7:30 PM EST on the night of a call...  It is probably too late.  So perhaps test it out first so that you know you have it and then you're ready for the call.

  1. That is a very simple description on how to start a Skype call. I think it’ll be very helpful for the beginners.
