<p>A telephone rate managing system comprises an autodialer (1) having means for generating PB tones, such as of the telephone number of a connection telephone company or the user ID, a store processing terminal (30) provided in a store to deal with autodialer, a POS terminal (40), and a managing host computer (100) of the telephone company, all being interconnected through communication lines. Merchandise information of the autodialer dealt with is sent to the host computer and stored in it. When a call using the autodialer is made, the host computer performs a subtraction processing of the prepaid call charge, in accordance with the charge, from the merchandise information of the autodialer stored in the host computer. Even though coupon information is not written in the autodialer itself, auto-dialing call is thus possible and payment of telephone charge is possible at a store which deals with autodialers.</p> |
