ABSTRACT:
A debit calling label for allowing telephone charges to be credited against a prepaid account is disclosed. The debit calling label preferably includes a label, an account number printed on the label, and an adhesive secured between the label and a backing such that when the backing is removed, the label is adapted to be secured to an item. The debit calling label also preferably includes an additional label having a numeral representing the amount of time associated with the account code. The calling label and the number label are adapted to be used on items specifically manufactured for use with the labels. These items preferably have designated areas for securing the labels thereto and corresponding instructions concerning use of the debit label to place telephone calls against the prepaid calling credit account. In an alternative embodiment, the label includes the account code, the amount of time associated with the account code, and the instructions. The label according to this alternative embodiment is adapted to be used with items which were not specifically manufactured for use with the label.
