  1. Perhaps BT can dish out some MBA qualifications another time. It's bound to help.

  2. Ah, Capita. This leaped out at me from their Wikipedia page:

    "In 2006 Capita Financial Administrators (CFA) was fined £300,000 by the Financial Services Authority for having poor anti-fraud controls."

    I know, six years ago, but it doesn't bode well...

  3. Wasn't Capita one of Tony Bliar's favourite consultancies?
