Abstract

A potential radiotelephone service subscriber logs on to a world wide web server (105) using an internet access device (101). The potential subscriber is presented with a plurality of selectable radiotelephone services and features. The potential subscriber then provides the billing system (130) with credit information that is validated through the credit validation system (140). A radiotelephone service profile is stored in the home location register (110) after the subscription process has been completed. The subscriber is then instructed to power up the radiotelephone that then registers with the system. An over-the-air activation function (135) collects data from the billing system (130) and an authentication center (125) and sends the data to the mobile switching center (115) that then transmits it through the base station (120) to the radiotelephone. The radiotelephone reprograms its own registers with the appropriate data.
