ABSTRACT:
A call processing platform provides the intelligence for a caller to choose a preferred dialing plan. In particular, the call processing platform includes the support for multiple dialing plans and holds information regarding which dialing plan is preferred by a caller. When the caller initiates a call, the call processing platform assumes that the caller entered the call in accordance with the preferred dialing plan of the caller. The call processing platform also includes intelligence for translating the call, if needed into a format that complies with a dialing plan for a locale from which the call was initiated. As a result, the call may be completed in the proper format. The translation is transparent to the caller. This enables a caller to use a single dialing plan even when the caller initiates calls outside of the geographical location associated with the calling plan. Hence, it is easier for the caller to place calls from outside of the native country of the caller.
