Apologies for clogging up the board - I had a call yesterday morning from a recruitment company looking to help a global law firm, based in London, provide a contractor for a couple of months to help manage their mobile costs. Unfortunately I forgot to ask your name and I think your firm was called "Pyewipe Recruitment" but that doesn't return any Google results. Does anyone recognise that, or know of any similar named recruiters?

Wanted to pass you a mini example you can use to pass on our experience. Back end of last year I helped a company with 1200 connections spending £220k per year on mobiles. The offer from the incumbent supplier and the changes proposed by the inhouse IT department could reduce that to c£125k per year. However after I had finished we projected an annual spend of £40k. We are now 10 months into the new arrangement and the savings are panning out as projected.

You might want to think about editing that last paragraph, you must be right on the ragged edge of the advertising rules.

Happy to delete/remove once the guy who called me yesterday gets in touch. Don't know how else to pass the message on. Stupid mistake not to have taken his name/number. Hopefully he's a regular reader.

Genuinely not meant to be an advert hence why I've kept it very short with very little detail.

Love to know the odds that he might see this.

More chance of winning the lottery?

Said he was a regular and had picked up my details in the first place from PH.

Whilst you may have forgotten to ask for their name or number, it is equally surprising they didn't think to tell you!

'Hello we'd like some stuff please'

'Yes, I can do stuff'

'Thanks, bye'

Ah, ok. Didn't realise that.

I got a pile of stuff waiting round the back, when are you going to collect it?
