Providing information in a communication system

A computer program embodied on a computer readable medium comprising code configured to control a processor to perform a process, the process comprising:

• facilitating collecting, in a network element, of use information relating to use, by user equipment during a period, of a service provided via a communication system;
• and
• facilitating loading, by the network element, of the use information onto the user equipment according to a predetermined plan, wherein
• the predetermined plan comprises either loading the use information onto the user equipment responsive to the network element recognizing an end of use of the service by observing a resource identifier or the network element loading the use information onto the user equipment according to a predetermined interval,
• the loading comprises loading the use information automatically in a memory of the user equipment, and
• the loading comprises loading the use information in response to a predetermined occurrence.

An apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to:

• facilitate collection of use information for a predefined period relating to use, by user equipment, of a service provided via a communication system, and
• facilitate loading of the use information onto the user equipment according to a predetermined plan, wherein
• the predetermined plan comprises either loading the use information onto the user equipment responsive to the apparatus recognizing an end of use of the service by observing a resource identifier or loading the use information onto the user equipment according to a predetermined interval, and
• the apparatus being further caused to facilitate the loading of the use information automatically in a memory of the user equipment and in response to a predetermined occurrence.

An apparatus, comprising:

• means for facilitating collecting of use information for a predefined period relating to use, by user equipment, of a service provided via a communication system;
• and
• means for facilitating loading of the use information onto the user equipment according to a predetermined plan, wherein
• the predetermined plan comprises either loading the use information onto the user equipment responsive to the apparatus recognizing an end of use of the service by observing a resource identifier or loading the use information onto the user equipment according to a predetermined interval, and
• the means for facilitating the loading is further configured to facilitate the loading of the use information automatically in a memory of the user equipment and in response to a predetermined occurrence.

A system, comprising:

• an information provision entity, wherein
• the information provision entity is configured to provide a service to user equipment via the system, collect use information relating to use of the service by the user equipment during a period, and load the use information onto the user equipment according to a predetermined plan, and
• the predetermined plan comprises either loading the use information onto the user equipment responsive to the information provision entity recognizing an end of use of the service by observing a resource identifier or the information provision entity loading the use information onto the user equipment according to a predetermined interval, and
• the information provision entity is further configured to load the use information automatically in a memory of the user equipment and to load the use information in response to a predetermined occurrence.

A system, comprising:

• providing means for providing a service to user equipment via the system;
• collecting means for collecting use information relating to use of the service by the user equipment during a period;
• and
• loading means for loading the use information onto the user equipment according to a predetermined plan, wherein
• the predetermined plan comprises either loading the use information onto the user equipment responsive to the system recognizing an end of use of the service by observing a resource identifier or the system loading the use information onto the user equipment according to a predetermined interval, and
• the loading means is further configured to load the use information automatically in a memory of the user equipment and to load the use information in response to a predetermined occurrence.
