1. A method for pushing data to a mobile network operator (MNO), the method being suitable to be implemented by a server used in a telecommunications network and comprising the following steps of:
receiving, from the MNO, a message comprising at least one communication pattern associated with at least one device identifier identifying a type or a provider of a device of a user, the communication pattern being a data plan or a set of rules determining how the device of the user will use a subscription associated with the device of the user to communicate with a network of the MNO;
receiving, from the device of the user, called a first device, a request for a subscription profile of the MNO to be downloaded by another device of the user, called a second device, the request comprising device data of the second device and information enabling the server to identify the requested subscription profile and contact the second device;
sending, in response to the request, the subscription profile to the second device of the user according to said information;
identifying, from the at least one communication pattern, a communication pattern applicable to the subscription profile, said applicable communication pattern being a communication pattern having an associated device identifier which matches the device data obtained from the request; and
pushing data comprising an identifier of the subscription profile and the applicable communication pattern to the MNO.
