A telephone call may have more than one identifier, e.g., a billing
telephone number and a caller's telephone number, within its signaling
stream. Each identifier may have an associated call servicing profile.
The invention determines which of several call profiles associated with
identifiers within the call signaling stream should be used to service
the call. The invention involves reading the identifiers, retrieving the
profiles associated with the identifiers, if they exist, and selecting
one of the profiles to use based on data in the profiles and a profile
priority scheme. The invention may be realized in relation to an
information assistance service.
