<p>A user equipment method, user equipment, a home network node method, a network node and computer program products are disclosed. The user equipment method comprises the steps of: providing a trusted application executable on the user equipment; initiating execution of the trusted application to collect data usage information; and transmitting the data usage information to a home network node. In this way, the user equipment itself may collect information related to its data usage. Because the application collecting the data usage information is trusted, the confidence in the reliability, accuracy or integrity of this collected usage information may be high. Transmitting the data usage information to the home network enables the home network to cross-correlate any data usage information it may have received from other sources with the data usage information received from the user equipment and helps to provide confidence that the data usage information is correct or helps highlight any discrepancies that may arise.</p> |
