Disclosed are systems and methods in which call intelligence, such as may
be disposed in communication with signaling systems utilized in
controlling calls, is used to provide information for making
determinations with respect to the treatment of calls. Call intelligence
may be coupled to or disposed within such networks to receive signaling
therefrom and/or transmit signaling thereto for determining the
appropriate treatment of a call and, preferably, controlling the
treatment of a call in accordance with such determination. Signaling
messages received by call intelligence may be utilized to determine that
a particular calling activity (e.g., enhanced calling service such as
call forwarding or three-way calling) is being employed, to collect data
with respect to a call, and the like. Signaling messages transmitted by
call intelligence of the present invention may be utilized to prevent a
call from being setup, to prevent a particular aspect of a call, to
provide information to a billing entity for payment, and the like.
