6.1 General principles

The A party is liable for the usage of all TCH/F in her PLMN. The B party may have to pay for one or more TCH/F in her PLMN. In case the originating or terminating subscriber is in the PSTN there is no additional charge for them.

6.2 Call forwardings

The A party is liable for the leg A-B. The B party who forwards the call to the forwarded-to subscriber (C party) is liable for the primary (basic) channel on the leg B-C. Forwarded-to (C party) is liable for the usage of one or more TCH/F in her PLMN.

6.3 AoC and toll ticketing

MSC will send the modified e-parameters to the MS, both in MO and in MT calls, every time the charging rate will change. This can happen when:

– the coding on the air interface channel is changed;

– the number of TCH/F allocated is increased or decreased;

during an existing HSCSD data call and when AoC supplementary service is activated.

Appropriate information concerning these changes have to also be included in the charging record (toll ticket).
