ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for a nation-wide cellular telephone network that controls access to cellular systems is provided in which a cellular system (14) includes a mobile unit (16), transmission towers (18), MTSO (20), and a clearinghouse link (22). The cellular system (14) is linked to a telecommunications platform (24). The telecommunications platform (24) is linked to central hosts (26 and 28). Calls to or from mobile unit (16) are directed through telecommunications platform (24), thereby reducing opportunities for cellular fraud and reducing cellular air usage charges.
