<p>A telecommunication call service is provided that directs incoming and/or outgoing cellular call charges to be billed to another payment party when placed to a telephone number specified by the payment party. The payment party has pre-established a list of telephone numbers with call direction authorized to be placed with the wireless number and identifies payment means in a payment account to be directly debited by the financed payment manager application (600) for the authorized wireless calls. In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, an originating telephone switch detecting a special prepaid wireless subscriber/other party telephone number pair directs the call to an Integrated Service Control Point (ISCP) (650) for call handling under the financed payment service feature. The ISCP checks the validity of the feature for the prepaid wireless subscriber/other number pair, authorized direction of the call with respect to the wireless number and verifies a valid payment method in the payment party account to determine whether or not to complete the call. The intelligent network service checks are performed without an interactive communication set-up procedure and all billing, in the event the call is completed, is accomplished without other network communication or outside billing solutions.</p> |
