The present publication discloses a method and system for sending messages in a telecommunications network. In the method, a first text-form message is sent to a user of the service, a reply to the first text-form message is received from the user of the service to an address defined in the previous message, if the reply is of the correct form and content, the desired service is sent to the user of the service. According to the invention, the user of the message service is offered a second service by a message, the information (such as the sending number is text-message traffic) defining the reply address of which differs from that of the first message, and the second offer message is sent with a sending delay, which depends of the content or type of the first service.

Techniques for performing data exchanges during voice call sessions is described. In one example, a network server may facilitate a voice call session between user devices and associate a unique session number (USN) to each of the voice call sessions. The USN may be used as a reference when toggling between voice call sessions. In one example, when a particular voice call session is toggled to an active state, the network server may limit recipients of sensitive financial information to be between transacting parties in the active voice call session. By isolating other user devices that are not privy to transactions in the active voice call session, the chances for a transacting party in the active voice call session to accidentally send payments, for example, to an unintended recipient can be substantially minimized.

During a voice conversation, conversationally continuous voice input may be received from at least a first participant of the voice conversation. During the voice conversation, the conversationally continuous voice input may be converted into text, and the text may be analyzed to characterize content thereof. Using a graphical user interface displayed to at least a second participant of the voice conversation, a voice content animation may be rendered that visually represents the characterized content and is repeatedly updated as new content is characterized during the voice conversation.

Embodiments of the present disclosure include computer-implemented systems and methods for routing incoming customer requests or inquiries in a customer service center. The system may include at least one processor configured to execute instructions to perform steps. The steps may include receiving a plurality of incoming customer calls and a plurality of incoming customer chat sessions. The steps may include blending the received plurality of customer calls and the received plurality of customer chat sessions into a total queue for presentation to at least one user device. The steps may additionally include determining a respective priority for each of the blended plurality of customer calls and the blended plurality of customer chat sessions and sending, based on the determined priority, to the at least one user device at least one of the blended plurality of customer calls or the blended plurality of customer chat sessions.

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer-readable media for managing and evaluating leads from incoming calls are provided. A first inbound call from a first caller may be received. A first set of information identifying characteristics of the first inbound call may be processed. A second set of information identifying characteristics of the first inbound call may be determined based on the first set of information. A first category may be matched to the first inbound call. A first receiver may be determined. A second inbound call from a second caller may be received. A third set of information identifying characteristics of the second inbound call may be processed. A fourth set of information identifying characteristics of the second inbound call may be determined based on the third set of information. A second category may be matched to the second inbound call. A second receiver may be determined.

An information management and synchronous communications system and method facilitates database equilibrium and synchronization with wired, wireless and Web-based systems, user-friendly and efficient generation of computerized menus and reservations with handwritten/voice modifications for restaurants and other applications that utilize equipment with nonstandard graphical formats, display sizes and/or applications for use in remote data entry, information management and communication with host computer, digital input device or remote pager via standard hardwired connection, the internet, a wireless link, printer or the like. Various operations employing automated telephone calls and/or messaging may, for instance, be performed. For example, desired reservation and/or appointment information may be automatically converted and conveyed to one or more entities via automated telephone call and/or messaging. As another example, information regarding reservation acceptability may be received and automatically converted via automated telephone call and/or messaging. Telephones may, for instance, be the only equipment required by the entities.

A method, system, and program for billing for service provided to destination device according to the calling plan of the individual receiving the call. An authenticated identity for a callee answering a call placed to a destination device is received at an intermediary device. The intermediary device then accesses a billing plan for the authenticated identity of the callee and loads the billing plan for specifying charges for the call, such that telephone service billed to the callee is accessible at multiple destination devices.

A system described herein may provide for the verification of payment information associated with a particular user request. The payment information may be verified by a third party and provide verification information to the call center processing the order request. Some information may be provided by the call center processing through the request by receiving information regarding the particular user from a repository.

Generally described, the present disclosure relates to communications and more particularly, to a system providing relevant services to transient devices in wireless networks and methods thereof. In one illustrative embodiment, a Unified Communications and Collaboration (UCC) client on a device can be synchronized with a network so that the device can appear as a local entity. The UCC client can facilitate exchange of data to ease the integration of the device into the local environment. After being synchronized, the UCC client can seek out available assistance from the local network and provide it to the user. Typically, the data retrieved from the local network pertains to the current location. The local network can be used to provide wireless service to mobile devices in order to remove them from their carrier network, including providing a local breakout via a Private Branch Exchange (PBX).
