Abstract
A method for updating a caller database in a communication system by detecting repeat callers during the bridging of calls placed to a called party subscriber and upon such detection, enabling the subscriber to enter corresponding alphanumeric identifiers in the frequent caller database. This method is useful in a communication system that completes a telephone call placed by a caller to a personal telephone number of a called party by bridging that call to a return call originated by the called party in response to a paging signal alerting the subscriber of the telephone call.
