Meeting Call Me Back Number
After entering a meeting, if you would like Teams to call you back you need to enter a phone number in the Call Me Back box. (See attached file.) It would be great if this box would remember the last number called and there was a user setting to save a default number. This would save you from having to enter in the number every single time.

Please add this. It's frustrating that this is not a feature yet. Thanks!

Our company is transitioning from skype to teams. Skype could do this! Main reason I like skype meetings - effortless setup and join. I had my office phone, cell and various conference rooms pre-loaded.
FIX THIS RIGHT AWAY PLEASE, SO SIMPLE!
Now I am manually punching in the same number for every phone call like a caveman.

I wish too there could be a settings for the call back number or that there was user preferences. Webex remembered all that.

+1000 for our company, this came up in one of our executive meetings.

Skype allowed users to store phone numbers on their profile to select from when joining a meeting and as my company is attempting to migrate this is the pain point I hear complaints about most. It seems like a glaring feature to have missed if Microsoft is trying to sell Teams as a replacement to Skype for Business.

Microsoft, please reassign resources working on emojis: https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public?category_id=194632&filter=top&page=1
and focus them on ease-of-use improvement ideas such as this one.

An even better feature would be to tell it to do that by default. I have no microphone on my PC, so I always use the phone and have to select the "call me" option -- that should immediately happen when I "join" the meeting IMO.
Oh, and one more thing -- if I've joined by phone, please dispense with the PC audio -- I always have to turn that volume all the way down to avoid echos...

I absolutely want Teams to remember phone numbers I have previously entered. I agree that a setting to identify a default number would save a lot of time.

Agree that this should be an option, as it was available in Skype, and we are migrating users to Teams.

I don't have a special headset for using voice through the computer. iPhone earbuds don't cut it. I need to use the office phone/headset. I feel that not offering this option limits employee productivity and effectiveness.

+1 here. Typing my phone number over and over is infuriating. I don't want to use VOIP no matter how easy you make VOIP and/or how hard you make it to use my phone.

Same comments as Rose W. I Agree with the other comments - Skype has it and if Teams is the recommended replacement, it should have that basic functionality! It is essential.
