Abstract
In a closed circuit television system having a central facility connected to a plurality of terminals, it is possible to display billing data showing charges for hotel accommodations, pay television reception, equipment use, etc., at the terminals. The computer in the central facility stores data corresponding to the charges owed by a customer at one of the terminals. When a customer wishes to see his bill, he depresses a button at his terminal. The appropriate charges are retrieved from the computer and superposed on a fixed picture which has been transmitted from the central facility so that the superposed picture may be displayed at the terminal.
