Frequently asked questions about the Call Recorder

 

On this page you can find the answer to the most frequently asked questions about the Call Recorder.

Click on the question in the list below, to jump directly to the answer:


Can I also record conversations from my fixed-line phone?
Yes, but not with the Call Recorder, because that one only records online conversations taking place on the computer.

To be able to record conversations from a traditional fixed-line phone, you need an adapter that connects the phone line to the microphone connection of the computer. In combination with our other product, the PolderbitS Sound Recorder and Editor, you can then also record your fixed-line calls, though not fully-automatic.

The kind of adapter you need is for sale at Recall Calls in The Netherlands. For more information please see the website of Recall Calls at http://www.recallcalls.nl/producten/retell_157_UK.htm.


In the recording I hear an echo of the other party's voice, which I didn't hear during the conversation.
What is causing this?
The voice of the other party coming out of the computer speakers, is picked up by your microphone again. The microphone signal is digitized and then send to the Call Recorder, which takes a fraction of a second to complete, so the voice of the other party is again recorded with a small delay. This causes the echo.

To solve this problem, use a headset or earphones instead of speakers. Chances that the microphone then still picks up the lower-volume sound of the headset speakers are slim.

Will this also work with Magic Jack?
No, Magic Jack is an external device that plugs into the USB port and the audio does not go through the computer sound card.
You can only record from communication software programs that use the sound card or a (USB) headset connected to the PC.

I have paid before but lost my Access key.
Do I have to pay again?
No.
Registered users can enter PolderPlus, the customer service area on this site.
On PolderPlus you can have your last Access key being re-sent to your registered E-mail address.
If the Access key does not activate the software anymore, you can apply for a new Access key inside PolderPlus.

Will my Access key still work if I upgrade my computer?
Maybe not, but this does not mean that you will have to pay again in such event.

The software does require another Access key on every other computer.
This has all to do with the built-in copy protection mechanism.

If you ever get a new computer, or if you change the configuration of your current computer in such a way that the software thinks it is running on another system, then registered users are always entitled to get a new Access key without additional charge.
Registered users can enter PolderPlus, the customer service area on this site, to apply for and receive a new Access key instantly in such cases.
The software also enters a new and fully functional 7 day trial period in these cases, so you will have plenty of time to arrange for a new key before the 7 day trial runs out.

If you want to activate and use the software on more than one computer, you will have to buy additional licenses. Registered users can buy additional licenses with a 5 Euro discount through PolderPlus, the customer service area on this site.

Is my registration good for Life?
Yes.
In the unlikely event that we go out of business, we will make sure that an unlocked version or Access key generator will be available. We will also make updates available from time to time. Most updates are free, but we may charge a fee for major new functionality.

Do you ship the software on CD or DVD?
No.
We only deliver the software by download over the Internet.
This eliminates additional costs for shipment and handling and is also environment friendly.

You can download the setup program for the Call Recorder and execute it to install the software on your computer. A fresh install always starts a 7 day fully functional trial period. To activate the software beyond the 7 day trial period, you apply the Access key that you will receive after your payment is processed.

How much will my card be charged for in my local currency?
If you pay by credit card, the purchase amount will be charged to your card in your local currency according to the current exchange rate.
Your credit card provider applies the exchange rate. For more information, please contact your credit card provider.

Does the price include sales tax?
No, the price does not include tax, because it depends on where you live whether or not you have to pay tax.

If you are a citizen in one of the European EEC countries, an additional Dutch sales tax (VAT, BTW) percentage of 19% is added to the registration fee.
For citizens in any other country in the world, sales tax does not apply.
