Overseas deployment, especially in wartime, causes tremendous stress on servicemembers, their families and friends. Being cut off from communications with their loved ones is a big part of that stress for servicemembers. My Conference Line provides an effective, low cost Teleconference service that boosts morale and helps ease that stress.
Tacoma, WA (PRWEB) April 2, 2005 -- I just want our soldiers to be able to communicate and boost their morale," Maj. Paul R Illiff, U.S. Army, told a USO interviewer in 2003. Aware of the psychological value to servicemembers of being able to reach out and touch loved ones by phone, field commanders are doing their best to increase servicemember's access to telephones overseas.
But finding more telephones for them is "slow going", according to Brig. Gen. Martin E. Dempsey, commander of the 35,000 Iraq-deployed troops of the Wiesbaden-based 1st Armored Division, in an interview with Stars and Stripes, the military's daily newspaper. The infrastructure in many countries is not up to the task of handling thousands of more additional phone calls.
Servicemember's access to telephones is limited at best, and those wonderfully reasuring conversations with distant loved ones; sharing news, information and fun, are cut short due to the waiting lines and the high cost of calls to the US.
Now, the Metropolitan Business Council, a Tacoma, Wa. and New York based company is offering a unique, low cost way of helping to solve this daunting communications problem; My Conference Line.
My Conference Line allows the servicemember and his/her whole family, regardless of where they are, to come together on the same phone call. This way, the servicemember can communicate with more people at less cost.
Now, parents, grandparents, brothers and sisters as well as the immediate family can know the happiness and joy of speaking directly to the servicemember.
My Conference Line is a teleconference service. Everyone simply dials the conference number, punches in their access code and talks.
No computers or special phones are needed. Callers can use whatever phone they have and can call from wherever they happen to be. Calls can be made at the convenience of the servicemember, and his/her guests, 24/7; since each subscriber gets their own, permanent access codes. There is no need to schedule calls whenever the company can squeeze you in or wait until conference operators are available.
As many as 96 callers can participate at one time and there is no limit on the duration of the call. Of course, everyone pays the cost of their own call to the conference number, but with todays long distance plans, the cost is minimal.
The conference calls can even be recorded for later playback on your website, sent as emails or burned into CDs for sharing with other friends and family, with the optional recording service.
The regular cost for My Conference Line is only $20 per month for unlimited numbers of calls. During the limited, introductory period, subscribers can lock in a 50% savings, bringing the cost down to only $10 per month! There are no other costs, no per minute line charges, or participant fees for the conference service.
My Conference Line is one of the simplest, most cost effective ways of boosting the morale of our brave servicemembers and their loving families!
