Telephone Number Validation Services
Before connecting certain calls, pay phone providers, inmate systems, operator services, wireless operators and hospitality services must determine whether they will be able to collect payment for each call. If payment is unlikely, the provider can choose not to connect the call. Telephone service providers and wireless carriers rely on Accudata validation to access and cross-reference information that will indicate the likelihood of payment. In addition to telecom companies, e-retailers like online auto dealers and apartment locators use Accudata's validation services. Before customers commit valuable time on bad sales leads, Accudata makes certain their information is valid, making their sales efforts more productive.
The Accudata validation network is linked to every major LIDB in North America, providing complete coverage. Accudata can deliver this data to you via a direct leased line, frame relay, modem, Internet, DTMF or by FTP batch:
Real Time Validation
With real time validation, Accudata provides you with direct, online access for 24-hour service. As each call is placed, Accudata instantly “dips” the database and can acknowledge if the line is active, blocked, unblocked, billable or not billable.
Batch Processing
Providing information equal to real time validation, but in a “batch” mode. Flexibility and speed distinguish Accudata’s service over its competitors. In fact, Accudata can turn a batch of 1 million queries in 24 hours or less.
Internet Validation
With the growth of converged and packet-based networks, translation from the SS7 protocol is becoming increasingly critical to transmit data from PSTN to IP systems. This is where WebQuery comes in. Using any Windows- or NT-based PC with an Internet connection, WebQuery provides operators and call center agents with real time phone number validation. Instantly, the operator or agent can make certain the number is valid and billable by using a browser.
Dial-up Validation
Using simple dial-up access, service providers can regularly validate billing information for older-type real time queries.
