Do you have a toll free number so I can call in?

No, in order to ensure the quality of sessions we do not use the audio conference with a toll free number. we use Integrated VoIP conference for Webinar sessions. This option allows participants to speak to each other using voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP)-an Internet-based telephony service-through the computer.
