Swedish press report on X-Stream. France is next? Note the number of X-Stream users. Hmmmm...Jeff << DAGENS INDUSTRI: TELIA FACES INTERNET COMPETITION FROM ONOFF AND X-STREAM (TELIAKONKURRENS PA NATET MED ONOFF OCH X-STREAM) 100% match; Dagens Industri - Sweden ; 14-Sep-1999 04:14:44 pm ; 163 words The British internet provider X-stream Network is setting up a free internet service in Sweden in cooperation with the electronics retail chain Onoff. X-stream Network is the third largest company in Britain to offer customers free internet access and it has 500,000 registered users. In Sweden, the company hopes to attract 200,000 users during the first 12 months. X-Stream Network's rivals not only include other providers of free internet services such as Spray, Bip, and Utfors, but also telecommunications companies such as government-owned Telia. X-stream Network believes that it will capture market share principally from Telia. The Scandinavian market is interesting for X-stream Network as it is well developed and better prepared for e-commerce than the British market. X-stream Network launched a Norwegian site last week, the Swedish site will be launched today, and there are plans for a French site. All these sites will be managed from Stockholm.

More on the Capital One deal. I wonder how much Capital paid X-Stream for the database information? Jeff MARKETING: MKT CAPITAL ONE LINKS TO X-STREAM FOR CREDIT CARD DRIVE 98% match; Marketing ; 26-Aug-1999 10:44:57 am ; 198 words Capital One, the world's largest credit card issuer, has signed a deal with The X-Stream Network, the UK's third largest internet service provider, to promote its cards through on-screen advertisements and web promotions. The one-year deal will see the US-based credit card company advertise on X-Stream internet sites via a series of banners, buttons and text messages. Capital One will also be given access to X-Stream's database of 429,000 users, which it will use in direct marketing campaigns to promote its products. Matt Cooper, senior vice-president at Capital One UK, said: 'The internet provides one of the most natural ways to deliver services on an individual basis. 'This partnership will enable us to target and acquire new customers and learn more about the growing number of consumers who use the internet,' he said. Capital One has used internet advertising previously, most recently running a series of banner ads on the UK's biggest free internet provider, Freeserve. Creative work for the campaign was handled by Capital One's in-house team. Capital One declined to comment on the cost of the partnership. The X-Stream Network site can be found at www.x-stream.co.uk.
