    摘要: Disclosed are methods, systems and computer program products for surveying a user using a scan-able information encoded graphic image, such as a bar code or a quick response (QR) code. In one embodiment, a mobile communication device such as a smartphone, tablet computer or other mobile computer is adapted to include a survey client module for scanning and communicating QR code information. QR code scanning is accomplished by a camera module that is associated with the smartphone or other mobile computing device. The survey client module communicates the scanned QR code information to an associated server application for collecting, processing and reporting survey data. The information encoded in the QR code includes information that is sufficient to identify a client entity (e.g., a local retailer or merchant) and a survey response.

    摘要: Methods and systems for performing sales transactions using a mobile communications device and without requiring text messaging or paging services are disclosed. In one example, a subscriber desiring to purchase goods or services proceeds to a point of sale device where the purchase price for the goods or services is totaled. The subscriber then initiates a voice call with a central transaction server. The subscriber provides a point of sale device identifier and the purchase price to the central transaction server. The central transaction server contacts a local transaction server using the identifier provided by the subscriber. The central transaction server also prompts the subscriber to select the payment account for the transaction and verifies that the subscriber has sufficient credit to purchase the goods or services. The central transaction server locates a pending transaction entry in a database local to the point of sale using the device identifier provided by the subscriber. Upon locating the pending transaction entry and verifying that the subscriber has sufficient credit, the central transaction server notifies the subscriber and the point of sale device that the transaction is complete.

    摘要: Methods and systems for triggerless prepaid short message service (SMS) screening and accounting in a signaling message routing node are disclosed. According to one aspect, the subject matter herein includes a prepaid SMS screening and accounting module. The prepaid SMS screening and accounting module includes a prepaid SMS screening function, where the function is an application program for receiving SMS messages and determining whether the SMS messages are associated with prepaid subscribers. The prepaid SMS screening and accounting module further includes a prepaid SMS accounting function, where the function is an application program co-located with the prepaid SMS screening function for determining, for the prepaid SMS messages associated with prepaid subscribers, whether the subscribers have sufficient credit for delivery of the SMS messages, and, in response, for sending the SMS messages to their intended destinations. At least one processor executes the prepaid SMS screening and accounting functions.

    摘要: Methods and systems for identifying calls connected without answer supervision and for automatically generating billing information for these calls are disclosed. A monitoring device copies signaling messages associated with calls. The signaling messages are correlated into call detail records. The call detail records are analyzed to identify calls connected without answer supervision. In one implementation, calls that exceed a predetermined duration and for which no answer message was returned from the terminating end office are identified as calls without answer supervision. For these calls, billing records may be generated and forwarded to a network billing center.
