Abstract:
A mobile communications device receives an indication of a balance from a server when establishment of a voice call or sending of a message is requested. The mobile communications device determines whether the balance is sufficient to place the voice call or send the message over a mobile network. If the balance is sufficient to place the voice call or send the message over the mobile network, the voice call is established or the message is sent under normal operating conditions. If the balance is insufficient to place the voice call or send the message over the mobile network, a grace period is activated and the voice call is established or the message is sent during the grace period over an available wireless local-area network.

Claim (Index 10):
A method of controlling voice calls and messages for a mobile communications device configured to communicate over a mobile network, the method comprising:\n maintaining an indication of a balance in a balance data record of an account associated with the mobile communications device, the indication of the balance being adjusted to indicate a reduction in the balance in response to at least one of establishment of a voice call over the mobile network or sending of a message over the mobile network; determining whether the balance is depleted; tracking a grace period using a grace-period data record while the balance is depleted, the grace period having a predetermined duration that begins from a time that the balance is determined to be depleted; disallowing access by the mobile communications device to the mobile network during the grace period; and allowing the mobile communications device to establish voice calls or send messages over an available wireless local-area network during the grace period.
