Monstermoving.com Announces Agreement with MakeTheMove.com; Monstermoving.com Visitors Can Easily Set-up, Transfer or Cancel Utilities Online

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 6, 2000--Monstermoving.com, the newest division of TMP Worldwide Inc. (NASDAQ: TMPW; ASX: TMP), and marketing extension of Monster(R).com, today announced a strategic alliance with utility connection service MakeTheMove.com. Through the agreement, Monstermoving.com site visitors will be able to quickly and efficiently make changes online to their home utilities and other household services.

Monstermoving.com is one of the world's largest online marketplaces for relocation information, providing consumers with the most expansive network of move-related information, goods and services needed to successfully manage all stages of the moving process. Through this agreement, Monstermoving.com visitors will have access to a free, convenient way to set-up, transfer, or cancel utilities such as gas, electric, and local phone. In addition, visitors can make changes to services such as long distance and wireless telephone, cable television, Internet service providers, and more. This "one-stop-shopping" is ideal for customers looking to use the Internet to manage an otherwise time-consuming process.

Moving customers will be able to take advantage of this free service by logging onto www.monstermoving.com and filling out a simple online form detailing essential moving information such as current address, destination address and move date. Visitors will then have access to a list of available local utility and service providers as well as a menu of options for transferring, setting-up, or canceling each service according to specific needs. As opposed to traditional methods, which require consumers to place multiple, repetitive phone calls to each individual utility and service provider, this new offering by Monstermoving.com is a fast, efficient and convenient alternative.

"MakeTheMove.com's comprehensive utility connection content is a perfect fit for Monstermoving.com, supporting our commitment to save our customers time, money, and reduce the stress associated with relocation," said Tom Zorn, President, Monstermoving.com.
