Abstract

A method for automatically updating a speed calling data base in a telecommunications network entails tagging an outgoing speed call with a speed calling tag, identifying the telephone number of a speed call as being non-working, retrieving the updated telephone number, and replacing the non-working number in the speed calling data base with the updated number based on update options selected by the calling party. All occurrences of the non-working number could be replaced depending upon options selected by subscribers being served from the speed calling data base.
