Embodiment Construction

[0019] Referring to FIG. 1 , an example of a communication network or system 1 is given with a charging system 2 providing means according to the invention for charging and rewarding and / or penalizing users or customers of services provided by the communication system. A communication system is, but not limited to, for example a cellular mobile telephone network or a PLMN (Public Land Mobile Network), which includes a service provisioning network such as an Intelligent Network (IN) that facilitates service delivery for users connected to the network. In this embodiment, the network also provides prepaid options and a method of determining rank data of users in the communication network in prepaid services. The prepaid option is just one example of a method for paying for services in a communication network, but this mechanism is not essential to the invention. Post-pay options or other payment methods are also possible within the scope of the present invention.

A method and system for updating the available amount of a service to be used by a user in a communications system, wherein a requested amount of a requested service (100) is reserved (101,102) if it is available. It is detected if a valid delivery of the requested service has been performed (105); if so, the delivered amount of said requested service (106) is accumulated; and available amount is updated in dependence of the delivered amount (107,108).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to a method and system for rewarding service users in a communication system, and more particularly, to a method and system for changing the available amount of a service to be used by a user in a communication system. Background technique [0002] Available prior art systems and methods for rewarding service usage in communication systems are based on storing charging amounts in each subscriber register. This data can then be used for price and bonus calculations. [0003] The level of service applications in communication systems (such as calls in telecommunication systems) is generally based on a large number of parameters, including A-number, B-number, date, time, and so on. These parameters and additional information related to the user account are used to determine the level of service used. Different discount schemes and incentives that can be applied to postpaid and prepaid systems are then used to rewa...
