A method for providing user notification includes generating a mobile-terminated message containing at least a portion of information to be provided to a mobile station. The method also includes communicating the mobile-terminated message to a base station. The base station is operable to communicate the mobile-terminated message to the mobile station. The method further includes determining if the mobile station acknowledges successful receipt of the mobile-terminated message. In addition, the method includes generating a mobile-originated message containing at least a portion of the information for communication to a public network if the mobile station fails to acknowledge successful receipt of the mobile-terminated message. The public network is operable to communicate the mobile-originated message to the mobile station.
