The invention relates to a method for call control using accounting information, wherein said control is on a per call basis. Accounting related restrictions (ACC) are entered for a certain call and these restrictions are supervised during said call. Said call is then automatically released and/or a user (Sub A) is notified, if the accounting related restrictions (ACC) are reached. For example credit limits can be entered as accounting related restrictions (ACC) by the user (Sub A). When the accounting related restrictions (ACC) are reached, a notification of the user (Sub A) can be done by a notification message and/or by an announcement and/or by a special tone. The administration of accounting related restrictions (ACC) can be done either via a so called subscriber control input (SCI) or by a menu selection point. The accounting related restrictions (ACC) can be administered for certain groups of users or called parties (Sub B) and/or for certain categories of calls made (e.g. local calls, international calls, calls to certain areas, etc.). The present invention provides a simple solution for offering the possibility to control the costs of a call or a transaction on a per call/transaction basis by entering accounting related information (e.g. amount, time, credit limit, etc.) as restrictions.
