ABSTRACT:
A method, system and apparatus for service management. In accordance with the present invention, a service management method can include the steps of receiving a telephone call from a service subscriber over a PSTN and identifying the service subscriber through identifying information received externally to the received telephone call. Importantly, a service term for a subscription associated with the service subscriber can be modified only if payment can be resolved on behalf of the service subscriber.
