IPC: H04M17/00
Filed: 1999-08-27
Abstract: 1. A method for providing telecommunication services, characterized in that a magnetic ticket is produced, on the magnetic strip of which an individual code of a transport card is recorded; receiving payment for transport services and forming a main block of data permitting to receive transport services after reading magnetic information from the magnetic strip in volume corresponding to the received payment for the transport services; reading data from the magnetic strip to determine a possibility for providing transport services in accordance with the main block of data; after establishing a possibility for providing the transport services forming a signal of possible accessing to the transport services, providing blocking of the blocking system of accessing to the transport services; simultaneously with receiving payment for the transport services, payment for telecommunication services is also received and an additional block of data is formed approving the receiving payment for the telecommunication services; reading data from the magnetic strip for proving the fact of payment for telecommunication services; at establishing the fact of payment for telecommunication services an identification code is formed providing an access to the telecommunication services and print it on the transport card; transmitting to the telecommunication system data bank information that the identification code is printed on the transport card; via a terminal device connected to the telecommunication system the identification code is provided to an operator of the telecommunication system, after which a possibility of providing the paid telecommunication services is established an access is provided to the paid telecommunication services in the volume determined by the received payment for the telecommunication services. 2. The method according to claim 1, characterized in that at establishing the fact of payment an identification code is formed providing an access to the telecommunication services and print it on the transport card once for each transport card. 3. The method according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that an additional block of data comprises information of the received payment for the telecommunication services which is considered at forming the identification code. 4. The method according to claims 1 to 3, characterized in that the identification code comprises one or several symbols indicating the volume of available telecommunication services. 5. The method according to claims 1 to 4, characterized in that the identification code unambiguously corresponds to the amount of the payment for the telecommunication services. 6. The method according to claims 1 to 5, characterized in that the information that the identification code is printed on the transport card is transmitted to the telecommunication system data bank after forming and printing the identification codes on several transport cards. 7. The method according to claims 1 to 6, characterized in that simultaneously data from the magnetic strip of the transport card is read for determining providing transport services in accordance with the read data and main block of data and for determining the fact of the telecommunication services payment, whilst the identification code is printed at a first use of the transport card for providing an access to the transport services. 8. The method according to claims 1 to 7, characterized in that the identification code is printed on the transport card on the station of the transport system where payment for the telecommunication services has been received. 9. A transport card with a magnetic strip for recording an individual code for providing an access to transport services of a transport system, characterized in that a block of symbols is stored on the card providing an access to paid telecommunication services. 10. The transport card according to claim 9, characterized in that an individual code is a transport card number. 11. The transport card according to claim 9 or 10, characterized in that each of symbols of the identification code unambiguously corresponds a definite key or a knob of a service company terminal devices keyboard which provides telecommunication services. 12. The transport card according to claims 9 to 11, characterized in that each of symbols of the identification code unambiguously corresponds to a definite key or a knob of terminal devices keyboard being used for service access by a service company providing telecommunication services. 13. The transport card according to claims 9 to 12, characterized in that each of symbols of the identification code corresponds to one of digits from 0 to 9. 14. The transport card according to claims 9 to 13, characterized in that each of symbols of the identification code and the magnetic strip are arranged on one side of the card. 15. The transport card according to claims 9 to 14, characterized in that each of symbols of the identification code and the magnetic strip are arranged on different sides of the card. 16. The transport card according to claims 9 to 15, characterized in that information is stored on the card characterizing the volume of telecommunication services provided by a telecommunication system. 17. The transport card according to claims 9 to 16, characterized in that information is stored on the card characterizing the access conditions for telecommunication services. 18. The transport card according to claims 9 to 17, characterized in that a definite number of "service units" determining the volume of telecommunication services provided by a telecommunication system corresponds to each individual code.
