The present invention relates to charging of communications using
chargeable resources of a first communication system and a second
communication system wherein at least one of said communication systems
provides wireless communication services. In accordance with the method,
after a set-up procedure for communications initiated a first procedure
for obtaining a first charging component is triggered, the first charging
component being associated with the first communication system and
determined based on a first charging model. If required, a second
procedure for obtaining a second charging component is also triggered,
the second charging component being associated with the second
communication system and determined based on a second charging model.
Information associated with the communications in the first and second
communication systems is processed simultaneously to obtain the
respective first and second charging components. The first and second
charging components are combined to obtain a total charge. A prepaid
balance is then decreased during the communications based on the total
charge.
