Abstract

A system and method for making a call from a dual mode mobile station (260) functioning in either a PCS mode or a cellular mode permit PCS communications if the station receives a beacon of a sufficient strength in a PCS frequency band, and alternatively permit cellular communications if the station does not receive a beacon of sufficient strength in the PCS frequency band. In order for the dual mode station (260) to perform both a cellular mode (235) and a PCS mode (225), a single service provider will attempt to provide both types of services. The reseller must ensure that a call can be properly billed to a mobile station (260) user for both a call received at the dual mode mobile station (260) and a call transmitted from the dual mode mobile station (260). Accordingly, methods and systems are provided for controlling cellular service access to and from the mobile station (260).
