    Hi

     

    For more details check out my blog on the subject here: https://three65.blog/2017/06/28/skype-for-business-online-cloudpbx-calling-plans-and-consumption-billing-explained/

     

    In essence dial in 1800 numbers will come out of consumption billing without being assigned to anyone. If you want to dial out of a conference, then consumption billing needs to be assigned to the person(s) who make the dial out call.

     

    thanks

Exactly what Mark said. This caught me out a few days ago. But as i have consumption billing disabled i assigned a toll number rather than a toll free one. All toll free 'charges' for service numbers come out of consumption billing. So if you want to use toll free numbers consumption billing must be enabled for your conferencing users.
