Primary Examiner—Mark H. Rinehart [57] ABSTRACT
An apparatus and method provide an interrupt-based add-on service for use in a service subscription system having a central service provider and at least one subscriber unit. The interrupt-based system includes a database for storing subscriber information specific to at least one subscriber, where the subscriber information includes at least one subscriber selectable condition. The system further includes a computer for interrupting a service request when the service request satisfies at least one subscriber selectable condition and for making a service connection when the service request does not match the subscriber selectable condition.
