Abstract
The invention provides a system for monitoring access to a service available via a telecommunications terminal connected to a telecommunications network, access to the service being subject to paying a subscription. The system includes: a unit configured to detect refusal of access to a service because there is no subscription to that service, a unit configured to prepare an electronic message following said access refusal, the message identifying the service to which access has been refused and the subscription enabling said terminal to use the telecommunications network to which the terminal is connected, and a unit configured to send the prepared message to a unit for monitoring attempts to access services to which there is no subscription.
