To control which Users are able to make different types of calls, it is now possible for Administrators of Universe to limit these for each User. This provides an opportunity for companies to keep costs under control and manage staff use of phones.
The options for Call Type Barring include;
- Internal calls within the company (compulsory)
- Domestic fixed and mobile calls and includes Freephone (e.g. 0800)
- Special Numbers (Premium Rate 0900 and Shared Cost 0870, 0845)
- Calls to Europe
- Calls to World (includes Europe but not Geo Blocked countries – see Update 3 ) It is possible to mix and match the above five options for each User.
