Changes in user behavior of usage of wireless services from a mobile
device are encouraged in order to effect shaping of traffic and
utilization patterns among a plurality of cells within a rate plan
region, wherein a discount indicator disposed in said mobile device is
provided to notify a user of a discount available for consuming wireless
service from a given cell. A geo-cost policy is established for that user
or mobile device in which rules and conditions according to the available
discounts and class of service are defined. A service completer queues
services and automatically completes queued services upon present
conditions meeting said geo-cost policy rules, such as delaying and later
delivering messages when the mobile device is relocated to a cell where
discounts are being offered.
