Abstract: The paper is on common approach to the problem of a subscriber choice for the making connection through the telecommunication network. One opportunity is to make repeated calls; the second one is to choose other provider. The problem of the traffic (and therefore, the income) lost induced by a low quality of service is given in detail. Quality of service dependence of the number of repetitive calls is proposed and verified by real network traffic measurements.
