Abstract

The present invention provides a network entity in a cellular radio network for monitoring usage of data communication between a mobile subscriber and the cellular radio network. The network entity comprises : a first interface for receiving a first indication of the mobile subscriber's data communication usage from the mobile subscriber; a second interface for receiving a second indication of the mobile subscriber's data communication usage from a charging entity of the cellular radio network, the first and second indications relating to the mobile subscriber's data communication usage in the same time period; and a processor configured to compare the first and second indications in order to determine an accuracy of the first indication.
