Abstract: A system and method of associating and transferring financially valuable information recorded against an unregistered mobile phone number with an external identifier comprising the external identifier; an application program; at least one originating communications device having an unregistered mobile phone number assigned thereto; and at least one replacement communications device having a separate mobile phone number assigned thereto, the application program automatically obtains the external identifier and operates to direct at least one third party who holds financially valuable information recorded against at least one of the unregistered mobile phone numbers allocated to the at least one originating communications device to associate such financially valuable information with the external identifier; and where the application program directs the at least one third party to transfer the financially valuable information associated with the unregistered mobile phone number to the separate mobile phone numb

Abstract: A communication system (10) comprising a first communications device (12) operable by way of a first telecommunications network (16a); a second communications device (14) operable by way of the first telecommunications network (16a) and at least one additional telecommunications network (16b), each telecommunication network (16) issuing a unique MS-ISDN to the second communications device (14) to enable such operation; and a communications facilitator (20) associated with the first telecommunications network (16a) where, when a communication from the first communications device (12) to the second communications device (14) is received by the communications facilitator (20), the communications facilitator assesses at least one characteristic of the second communications device (14) and/or MS-ISDNs allocated to the second communications device (14) to identify a communication link and relays the communication to the second communications device (14) by way of the additional telecommunications network (16) that
