 Herts-based Eckoh said that Trinity Mirror had contracted it to act as its network operator for all premium telephone and SMS services as well as their service provider for a range of interactive services.

The duo of contracts with the publisher of the Daily Mirror, Sunday Mirror and he People will run until 2009, Eckoh said, and are in line with the company's stated new strategy of operating these services on a sustainable margin and with very clear lines of responsibility, reflecting the more stringent demands now placed on telephone service providers.

"We have spent much of last year restructuring and tailoring our proposition to media companies to become a best practice supplier and to reflect the new and challenging demands that the industry now requires," said Nik Philpot, CEO.

Shares in the company have seen an almost four per cent fall, bringing the price down to 6.25p, around half of what it was prior to the 'You Say, We Pay' scandal in February last year.
