ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Charging process for selling information via a telephone network in which a data bank can be connected via said network with calling subscrib- ers, said data bank having a telephone number and means for supplying a spoken message, wherein said process comprises: - the data bank supplies its message to any calling subscriber as from the time at which a call from said subscriber is received, and the duration of the message supplied by the data bank is fixed, - to said data bank is allocated a number which, for the telephone network, is con- sidered to correspond to a time-based charge based on a certain charge band, said number also implying a routing of the call via time-based charging means, - the fixed duration of the message and the charge band are chosen in such a way that the total of the charge charged to the calling subscriber for receiving the complete message contains an extra charge of at least one unit compared with the charge which would have been made to him for a call of the same duration with a subscriber belonging to the same local distribution area as the data bank, - the number of calls to which the data bank has replied are counted and the number of extra charges charged is deducted therefrom, so that the proportion of the charges attri- butable to the data bank is calculated.
