Abstract
A service agent can receive a request to establish a communication session between a communicative entity and another communicative entity. The service agent can access profile information for the communicative entity. Using the profile information the service agent can detect a transition from a first billing mode to a second billing mode, and it can prompt the communicative entity for an authorization to transfer from the first billing mode to the second billing mode.
