Claims20
A system for multiple wireless network usage tracking, the system comprising:
- a policy management platform implemented by a network operator, the policy management platform having at least one processor configured to receive wireless usage from a plurality of wireless carriers, and
- the policy management platform configured to calculate account usage data associated with an account profile based on the wireless usage from the plurality of wireless carriers,
- wherein the policy management platform is arranged externally from a network of the plurality of wireless carriers.
A device for multiple wireless network usage tracking, the device having one or more processors configured to:
- receive account usage data from a plurality of wireless networks for an account profile associated with at least one wireless device;
- aggregate the account usage data from each of the wireless networks for the account profile;
- determine whether the account usage data from the account profile has reached a predetermined usage threshold;
- and
- transmit a termination request to one or more of the wireless networks, the termination request requesting termination of a wireless service to the at least one wireless device.
A method for multiple wireless network usage tracking, the method comprising:
- connecting a policy management platform having one or more processors to a plurality of wireless carriers;
- receiving with the policy management platform account usage data for an account profile operatively linked to at least one wireless device registered on the account profile and configured to connect to the wireless carriers;
- aggregating the account usage data at the policy management platform;
- and
- determining with the policy management platform, in response to aggregating the account usage data, whether the account usage data has reached a predetermined usage threshold.
