                     TRADING UPDATE
                            
The Directors of NetCall plc announce that major advances
have been achieved in extending the range of HyperPhone
LinkT applications that our principal operating
subsidiary, NetCall Telecom Limited is able to deliver.
As a result and since the year-end, a significant
increase in the level of sales activity has been
experienced.  In particular it has been the ability to
utilise NetCall's telephony infrastructure to host and
run offline, as well as traditional on-line services,
that has made the impact.

Examples of the areas where NetCall has enjoyed recent
success utilising these new applications include:-

NetCall Benelux
NetCall has, through its joint venture company with Desc
NV, NetCall Benelux, developed NetCall Asset Minder which
enables customers to track, record and certify the
delivery and maintenance of valuable items of equipment,
such as computers, using automated and interactive voice
response telephony running on NetCall's existing
infrastructure.  Asset Minder is activated either through
the Internet or by an international toll free number.
The first installation of this service will shortly be
going live and is expected to generate revenues in excess
of $300,000 in its first year of operation for NetCall
Benelux.

Agreement with Personal Number Company plc
On 6 July 1999, NetCall announced that it had signed an
agreement with Personal Number Company plc ('PNC')to
provide NetCall's Alerts technology, which will deliver
and support PNC's recently launched service e-callTM.  E-
callTM is the UK's first proactive text-to-speech delivery
service, specifically developed to work in conjunction
with mobile phones, which alert mobile users that 'they
have mail' and allows them the option of listening to a
message or having it forwarded to any nominated fax
machine.

NetCall has designed, developed and is now supplying the
engine and the infrastructure on which this innovative
service runs.  NetCall expects to receive revenues from
subscription fees and telephony from supplying this
service to PNC in the UK and additional income from
further customers marketing similar services in other
territories including North America.

AddCall 800
AddCall 800 enables respondents to advertisements in
newspapers to receive a free telephone call connecting
them directly to the advertiser by merely dialling a free
phone number and on prompt entering the reference number
relating to the item advertised.  Early trials have shown
this innovative system, which also delivers many other
valuable benefits to the advertiser, to be extremely
effective in eliciting responses and have generated over
1000 telephone calls per week in a single product
category advertised only in one local region.  NetCall
expects to see this service widely utilised by
advertisers in many locations covering a whole host of
products and services.

Trading in the year to 30 June 1999 has been in line with
market expectations and it is anticipated that the
preliminary results will be issued in October.

David Rothschild, Chief Executive of NetCall plc,
commented:

'NetCall's success in delivering these and other
innovative, relevant and robust services has enabled it
to move to the next stage of its planned expansion with
increased emphasis now being placed on sales and
marketing in both the UK and the USA.'

'As a result it is expected that the current financial
year will see a marked increase in revenue from these and
other services offered by NetCall.'
