1. A communication management system comprising:
- one or more one or more computing devices; and
one or more instructions when executed on the one or more computing devices cause the one or more computing devices to perform at least;
obtaining a first charge authorization status relating to an affiliation-dependent mobile device and to a first account associated with a first currently-subscribed mobile device;
obtaining a second charge authorization status relating to the affiliation-dependent mobile device and to a second account associated with a second currently-subscribed mobile device;
automatically determining at least one cost-allocation to at least one of the first account associated with the first currently-subscribed mobile device or the second account associated with the second currently-subscribed mobile device at least partly based on the first charge authorization status relating to the affiliation-dependent mobile device and to the first account associated with the first currently-subscribed mobile device and at least partly based on the second charge authorization status relating to the affiliation-dependent mobile device and to the second account associated with the second currently-subscribed mobile device, the affiliation-dependent mobile device being at least one of an unsubscribed mobile device, a formerly-subscribed mobile device, or a formerly-charged mobile device; and
causing the affiliation-dependent mobile device to indicate the automatically determined at least one cost-allocation to at least one of the first account associated with the first currently-subscribed mobile device or the second account associated with the second currently-subscribed mobile device.

1. A communication management system comprising:
-
one or more one or more computing devices; and one or more instructions when executed on the one or more computing devices cause the one or more computing devices to perform at least; obtaining a first charge authorization status relating to an affiliation-dependent mobile device and to a first account associated with a first currently-subscribed mobile device; obtaining a second charge authorization status relating to the affiliation-dependent mobile device and to a second account associated with a second currently-subscribed mobile device; automatically determining at least one cost-allocation to at least one of the first account associated with the first currently-subscribed mobile device or the second account associated with the second currently-subscribed mobile device at least partly based on the first charge authorization status relating to the affiliation-dependent mobile device and to the first account associated with the first currently-subscribed mobile device and at least partly based on the second charge authorization status relating to the affiliation-dependent mobile device and to the second account associated with the second currently-subscribed mobile device, the affiliation-dependent mobile device being at least one of an unsubscribed mobile device, a formerly-subscribed mobile device, or a formerly-charged mobile device; and causing the affiliation-dependent mobile device to indicate the automatically determined at least one cost-allocation to at least one of the first account associated with the first currently-subscribed mobile device or the second account associated with the second currently-subscribed mobile device.

2. A communication management system comprising:
one or more electronic devices including at least; circuitry configured for obtaining a first charge authorization status relating to an affiliation-dependent mobile device and to a first account associated with a first currently-subscribed mobile device; circuitry configured for obtaining a second charge authorization status relating to the affiliation-dependent mobile device and to a second account associated with a second currently-subscribed mobile device; circuitry configured for automatically determining at least one cost-allocation relating to the affiliation-dependent mobile device to at least one of the first account associated with the first currently-subscribed mobile device or the second account associated with the second currently-subscribed mobile device at least partly based on the first charge authorization status relating to the affiliation-dependent mobile device and to the first account associated with the first currently-subscribed mobile device and at least partly based on the second charge authorization status relating to the affiliation-dependent mobile device and to the second account associated with the second currently-subscribed mobile device, the affiliation-dependent mobile device being at least one of an unsubscribed mobile device, a formerly-subscribed mobile device, or a formerly-charged mobile device; and circuitry configured for causing the affiliation-dependent mobile device to indicate the automatically determined at least one cost-allocation to at least one of the first account associated with the first currently-subscribed mobile device or the second account associated with the second currently-subscribed mobile device. - View Dependent Claims (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)

31. A communication management system comprising:
one or more electronic devices including at least; means for obtaining a first charge authorization status relating to an affiliation-dependent mobile device and to a first account associated with a first currently-subscribed mobile device; means for obtaining a second charge authorization status relating to the affiliation-dependent mobile device and to a second account associated with a second currently-subscribed mobile device; means for automatically determining at least one cost-allocation to at least one of the first account associated with the first currently-subscribed mobile device or the second account associated with the second currently-subscribed mobile device at least partly based on the first charge authorization status relating to the affiliation-dependent mobile device and to the first account associated with the first currently-subscribed mobile device and at least partly based on the second charge authorization status relating to the affiliation-dependent mobile device and to the second account associated with the second currently-subscribed mobile device, the affiliation-dependent mobile device being at least one of an unsubscribed mobile device, a formerly-subscribed mobile device, or a formerly-charged mobile device; and means for causing the affiliation-dependent mobile device to indicate the automatically determined at least one cost-allocation to at least one of the first account associated with the first currently-subscribed mobile device or the second account associated with the second currently-subscribed mobile device.

32. A communication management method comprising:
-
obtaining a first charge authorization status relating to an affiliation-dependent mobile device and to a first account associated with a first currently-subscribed mobile device; obtaining a second charge authorization status relating to the affiliation-dependent mobile device and to a second account associated with a second currently-subscribed mobile device; automatically determining at least one cost-allocation to at least one of the first account associated with the first currently-subscribed mobile device or the second account associated with the second currently-subscribed mobile device at least partly based on the first charge authorization status relating to the affiliation-dependent mobile device and to the first account associated with the first currently-subscribed mobile device and at least partly based on the second charge authorization status relating to the affiliation-dependent mobile device and to the second account associated with the second currently-subscribed mobile device, the affiliation-dependent mobile device being at least one of an unsubscribed mobile device, a formerly-subscribed mobile device, or a formerly-charged mobile device; and causing the affiliation-dependent mobile device to indicate the automatically determined at least one cost-allocation to at least one of the first account associated with the first currently-subscribed mobile device or the second account associated with the second currently-subscribed mobile device. - View Dependent Claims (33)
