Joining meeting audio by phone (call me)

Last Updated:

While in a meeting or webinar, you can call yourself (also known as "call me") to join audio by phone. Alternatively, you can manually dial into the meeting.

Notes:

  • "Call me" does not work if you call more than 15 minutes before the start of a meeting.
  • "Call me" also doesn't work if the meeting is scheduled with "No Fixed Time."

Prerequisites for joining meeting or webinar audio by phone

Notes:

  • Ensure the call-out phone numbers in the account are not blocked by your phone service.
  • The phone number calling you will always be Zoom-owned phone number.
  • When calling to US numbers, Zoom will always use this dedicated number:+1-646-568-7788.
  • When calling to numbers outside of the US, Zoom will use the numbers list in the web portal if available.
  • For calls to complete to some country's phone numbers more reliably, Zoom may choose an alternative calling number on the list.
  • Please be aware that local regulations and carrier limitations may influence the availability of the calling number, altering the number displayed for some destinations.
  • Regardless of the number that is being used to call you, the rate that is charged will be respective to the call destination rate.
