Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent a telephone user from paying an unreasonable telephone charge carelessly, and storing a monthly integrated telephone charge and to control the charge effectively by providing the limit valve of the integrated telephone charge for one call, and further providing a limit time excess warning device. CONSTITUTION:A limit value setting switch 6 for setting and resetting the limit value of the telephone charge for one call and limit value setting swtiches 7 (7a, 7b, and 7c) for setting and resetting the limit value of the itegrated telephone charge are provided. Then, a charging information display circuit C displays charging information on the current remaining limited telephone time, telephone charge, integrated telephone charge, etc. When the limited telephone time excess warning circuit 14 detects an excess over the limited telephone time for one call, a warning speaker 8 sounds with its detection signal. Further, an alarm is generated in case of an excess over the integrated telephone charge of this month. Then, the integrated telephone charge is stored in a storage device 11 and the integrated telephone charge of a desired month is read out of the device 11.
