Internet Agreement with Vodafone UK Ltd ('Vodafone')
LONDON, Aug. 25 /PRNewswire/ -- Scoot.com plc (''Scoot'' or the ''Company'') -- The Company is pleased to announce that it has agreed an exclusive partnership agreement with Vodafone for its innovative free directory enquiry service ''Scoot People Finder''. The partnership further endorses the success of the Vodafone Scoot ''333'' business information service.

Scoot People Finder allows users to receive all business and residential enquiries free of charge by simply registering for usage, and takes advantage of more than 700 million directory enquiries that are made annually in the United Kingdom. In addition, Vodafone customers can request the results of their enquiry to be sent direct to their mobile phone handset as an SMS text message.

It is intended that, over time, the Scoot service and directory enquiries product will be integrated to create a unique user experience. The service, which is anticipated to create substantial incremental usage and a large registered user base, will benefit Scoot subscribers from increased traffic flow.

Scoot People finder is currently accessible through the www.scoot.co.uk site and will also be made available through Vodafone's own website (www.vodafone.co.uk).

Scoot.com (Nasdaq: SCOP - news) is a branded infomediary company, providing buyers with powerful decision making information and connecting them directly with sellers through a range of interactive distribution channels. The Company is quoted on NASDAQ (SCOP) and on the London Stock Exchange (SCO.L).

Scoot services operate in the UK and also in The Netherlands and Belgium through a joint venture with VNU. The UK service is available on freephone 0800 192192, through Vodafone Scoot 333 and via the Internet on www.scoot.co.uk
