[Asterisk-Users] Background asynchronous AGI

[random cluster]

Hi Tony

       I have the same problem you have, i think what would you like
to do (as me), is to update in a realtime basis credit for prepaid
customer, look what I posted today,
 its from ramcluster and the threat is billing realtime, this is what
i discover right now.

  Hope it help you
