Comptel Corp. has added roaming cost control to its Dynamic OSS solution to allow service providers worldwide to give their subscribers control over their spending, especially when roaming.
The new function also enables European service providers to comply with the new amendment to EU regulation No 717/2007 brought in last week, which dictates that there should be a cut-off limit for data roaming services.
Comptel Roaming Cost Control monitors the balance of specific subscribers in real-time, and can trigger actions when certain limits are reached, e.g. sending notifications or suspending the service. The solution allows operators to comply with legislative demands, to keep their subscribers satisfied, to encourage roaming usage and to reduce bill disputes and non-payment.
Comptel Roaming Cost Control is the first of a number of Comptel solutions built around Comptel Policy Control – a solution which complies with the 3GPP industry standard. This, and other solutions soon to be announced, are supplemented by Comptel’s charging and provisioning functionality.
