The HotAir team is based in Australia
Easy to use
Create an account online and be meeting in minutes.
To hold a meeting, everyone dials into the automated service and enters a PIN, it’s that simple!
Callers on mobile phones can even automate entering their PIN.
I want to pay for my callers’ telephone charges
When you create an account, we’ll send you a list of our telephone numbers.
Most callers in Australia dial our 1800 number (toll free), this is the most popular way of joining a conference call.
We also have telephone numbers in 42 other countries so that your overseas participants can join your conference call without paying the international call charges.
Free recording
Record your conference call at no cost and download the recording minutes later.
It’s great for taking notes or should anybody miss the live conference call.
Mobile phones
Mobile phone users sometimes have difficulty joining conference calls because the PIN is distorted by poor phone line quality.
HotAir is the only conference call company in Australia that assists callers that can’t successfully enter their PIN. This means there is no longer a reason for your mobile participants to not take part in every conference call.
Sound quality
Using high quality business grade telephone lines is the only way to be sure the sound quality will always be fantastic.
International conference call experts
It’s easy for your international folk to join your meetings with more international numbers than any other Australian conferencing company, and what’s more they are more reliable because we test them constantly!
Telephone numbers in 42 countries
Guaranteed to work every time
HotAir is the only conference call company in Australia with a meeting quality guarantee.
If your meeting does not go ahead or is compromised because of something controlled by us there is no charge for that meeting.
Over 7,500 Happy Clients
How am I charged?
Per line per second. The more lines connected or the longer the meeting, the more it will cost.
Refreshingly for a telecommunications company, there are no sneaky hidden charges, no monthly fees, flag falls nor minimums.
There is also no surcharge if paying by credit card.
How do HotAir’s prices compare?
A failed conference call is very expensive if you include the costs of the people involved and how long it might take to get them all back together again.
HotAir’s service is focussed on providing a service with the best sound quality that will always work at a sensible price.
Our pricing is half of Telstra’s but will never compare with services that focus purely on price. For most organisations, using a cheap conferencing service is actually the most expensive choice. That’s why so many of our clients have come to HotAir because they need a service that works every time.
What does a typical conference call cost?
If you had five lines calling the 1800 number for a 30 minute conference call, the cost would be:
5 lines x 30 minutes x $0.25 = $37.50 excluding GST. With GST = $41.25
Calls to 1800 numbers are free from landlines and most mobile phones.
We offer cheaper rates out of business hours and to “not for profit” and governmental organisations. Contact us for further information.
Itemised invoices
Invoices show every line in every meeting; the time they connected, the duration of the connection and the cost.
If you have more than one user/meeting facility, all costs are summarised separately.
