Hi Everyone

I am based in New Zealand and I have a meeting attendee who is currently in Fiji and he wants to join a meeting by phone. I understand that the wifi where he is based is not sufficient to join over the web hence the need to join by phone. Can anyone help me find the number he needs to call into and hoe I manage that at my end.

Thank you in advance.

Welcome to the Zoom Community, @alisonh.

 

Is the Fiji-based Attendee unable to connect to the Internet?  It’s my understanding that anything with Internet can join a meeting, with minimal exclusions. See this Zoom Support article for information:

Unfortunately, it looks like local dialing from Fiji requires the meeting owner to subscribe to an international calling subscription. See this Zoom Support article for information on international disk access:
