One Talk - Place a Call
Here's how to place a call from your One Talk phone.
- If placing a call over Wi-Fi, keep in mind that for billing purposes, Wi-Fi calls always originate in the US, even when you're outside of the US.
- Wi-Fi calls to US numbers are not billed (except for 411 or other premium calls).
- Wi-Fi calls to international numbers are billed according to your international long distance plan.
- N11 calls including 211, 311, 411, 511 and 811 are not supported in call-through mode. In these cases, the phone's native dialer should be used.
Select a dialer option for instructions on placing a call:
- Call from Desk Phone
- Call from Mobile App / Enhanced Dialer
- Call from Mobile App - Call-Through Mode
- Call from iOS Basic Dialer
- Call from Android Basic Dialer
