National Distribution Deal with MTV Telecom

365 Corporation PLC
4 April 2000

            365 Corporation plc secures national distribution deal
                               with MTV Telecom.

The  Business Services division of 365 Corporation plc ('365') announces  that
it  has signed a Heads of Agreement to launch Island6 Ltd ('Island6'),  a  new
joint  venture  company  with  partner MTV Telecom  (Distribution)  plc  ('MTV
Telecom').

Island6  will  provide  class-leading telecoms and web solutions  to  end-user
small  and  medium-sized  enterprises ('SMEs')  via  the  MTV  Telecom  dealer
network.  The  new company will benefit from 365's expertise in  providing  an
extensive  range of convergent applications, including fixed  line  voice  and
data, mobile telephone and internet services, to the SME market.

To  date,  365's  business services expansion strategy has focused  on  direct
selling  and  the formation of a limited number of equity joint ventures  with
established  UK  telephone systems suppliers in specific  geographical  areas.
The  creation  of  Island6  will  provide 365  with  a  national  distribution
capability  for  the  first time, through exclusive access  to  MTV  Telecom's
channel of over 2000 active dealers across the UK.

MTV  Telecom,  an  independent company, is a leading national  distributor  of
telephone  systems and related hardware, based in Egham, Surrey.  The  company
was  formed in 1989 and represents a number of major telecom manufacturers and
integrators, including Bosch and Lucent.

Commenting  on  the  deal,  Mark Jones, Managing Director  of  365's  Business
Services division, said:

'A crucial element of 365's expansion plans in the SME market is the formation
of strategic distribution partnerships with major operators, such as MTV. This
joint  venture  will provide us with the opportunity to increase significantly
our  existing dealer base from the current 20 and generate revenues  from  SME
end-users  under the Island6 brand, including through an increasing  range  of
business Internet products.  We have been looking to develop a national dealer
channel for some time and the Island6 deal delivers an immediate solution.'

Martin Hatcher, Chief Executive Officer of MTV Telecom, said:

'MTV Telecom has been searching for the right partner to help us offer bundled
telecommunication services for some time.  365's experience and innovation  in
servicing  the SME market, together with their proven success of working  with
telecoms  dealers were key factors in the decision to form the  Island6  joint
venture.  We are very excited about the prospects.'

CURRENT SERVICE AND CONTENT OFFERINGS

Business

The Business Division provides a 'one stop shop' of telecommunication services
and Internet applications to small and medium sized enterprises in the UK,
France and Ireland. 365 currently provides fixed line voice and data access,
telephone systems, mobiles, Internet access and related services.

In order to work towards national coverage, 365 has formed equity joint
ventures with 12 telecom systems dealers across the UK.  Under these
arrangements, 365 contributes its expertise and access to its customer service
and billing infrastructure, while the dealer contributes local sales and
marketing expertise.  The existing customer base of the joint venture partners
provides the initial target for 365's marketing efforts.

On 29 February 2000, 365 acquired the entire issued capital of Fenfones
Communications Limited, an established telephone systems supplier located in
Newmarket serving the SME market.  Total consideration paid was £4,520,000.
On the same day, 365 acquired the 50% shareholding in Datacom Networks Limited
(a joint venture) owned by Fenfones for £500,000.

The formation of equity joint ventures with telecom system dealers, and
acquisition of Fenfones, underlines 365's strategy of securing distribution
and long-term customer retention though partnership with, or ownership of, the
telephone system supply channel.  The telephone system represents the key
product around which value-added telecommunication and internet services can
be developed and sold to SME customers.
