Abstract

See full text

A system for controlling the acquisition of services allows a subscriber, to add, delete, and/or modify a wide variety of services, e.g., telephone and multimedia services, from a single point of access via any interface technology. The services may be provided to the same point of access, or another point of access as requested by the subscriber. The services may be provided by a plurality of service providers. The system is technology independent, such that subscribers and service providers may access the system via any technology, e.g., wireless, wireline. Also, payments are consolidated, such that the subscriber receives a single bill for the provided services, and not individual bills from each service provider.
