A method ( 200 ) for communicating messages ( 170, 175 ). A priority level can be associated with a message, and a time in which to communicate the message can be automatically selected based on the associated priority level and a communication rate plan ( 165 ). The message can be automatically communicated at the selected time. A subscriber communication rate plan can be queried to determine when there is a discounted communication rate or when free communications are available. The message can be communicated immediately if the priority that is associated with the message is high. The present invention also relates to a method ( 500 ) for processing calls. An inbound call ( 405 ) can be received and a priority level can be associated with the call. The call can be automatically sent to voice mail if the priority level is low or a call session can be established if the priority level is high.
