How Do I Change the Calling Plan for a User?


You have two options for changing a calling plan for an employee:  1) Do it yourself by deleting and recreating the user or 2) Submit a request to Aptela’s billing team. 

To Delete and Recreate the user, step-by-step instructions are found in the article:  How to Add a Standard User

To submit a request to Aptela’s billing team, fill out a form found here.
Be sure to clearly identify the user name(s) and calling plan(s) you are looking to change.

About Aptela Calling Plans
Specify in your request the telephony option:  VoIP or Overlay

  • VoIP Service:  Aptela is providing basic telephony or “dial tone” service for this user.
  • Overlay Service (also called “Mobile Extension”):  User already has phone service (ie. mobile phone or cable phone service) and is adding Aptela software for advanced call management capabilities.

Then specify the calling plan:

  • Metered: Unlimited inbound and on-net calls. Pay per minute for all outbound calls and inbound calls forwarded to an outbound number. Available for both VoIP and Overlay (Mobile Extension) users.
  • Unlimited: Unlimited inbound, on-net and outbound calls. Available for both VoIP and Overlay (Mobile Extension) users.
  • Limited: Unlimited inbound and on-net calls. Account purchases a “bundle” of outbound minutes. When bundle limit is reached, user pays per minute for overages.  Available for VoIP users only.
  • X-limited: This is “featureless” user typically associated with common area extension such as conference room, breakroom or lobby. These users are also associated to a fax-only or voice-only mailbox.  This option is available for VoIP service only.
