Abstract
A system and method for notifying the calling party of acknowledgment of the missed calls by the called party is disclosed. The called party and the calling party can subscribe for the notification service to enable charging for the service. When the calling party initiates a call to the called party it may result in a missed call as the called party may be out of coverage area or busy. When the called party views the record of the missed call a notification is generated on the wireless device by the application on the wireless device of the called party. The notification is then sent to the calling party. The acknowledgement notification may be sent directly to the calling party or via an application server.
