Abstract  Abstract

A person paging method in which a first user (A) wishes to page and transmit a message to a second user (B) with the aid of a paging service. The first user (A) requests paging of the second user (B) at a paging central ( 1) which offers an alerting service and a message service which supplements the alert with the message. The paging central ( 1) alerts the second user (B) by means of the alerting service. The invention is characterized in that the paging service is not associated with any particular telecommunication network but can be performed in at least one telecommunication network (e.g. in N 1 and N 5) chosen from among at least two possible telecommunication networks (N 1-N 5). The message service is also made independent of the alerting service in that the message service is not activated until a request to do so is received from the second user. The alerting service utilizes the aforesaid first telecommunication network (N 1 and N 5) while the message service utilizes at least one telecommunication network (N 1-N 5) which is selectively different from the first-mentioned network (N 1 and N 5). The message is not transmitted until the aforementioned request is received.
