A west Wales call centre which opened last November fears for its future following the Assembly leadership row over Objective One cash.

Cybercall Ltd, based in Cardigan, is relying on European grants to secure its future and create jobs for up to 400 people.

Site manager David Lewis said the Assembly Members were wasting time with politics rather than working together to secure the match funding.

He said the company would consider relocating to outside Wales if it did not get the European grant.

"We have retained PricewaterhouseCoopers to walk the corridors of the Assembly but we are getting nowhere," said Mr Lewis.

'Knock-on effect'

"We are waiting to implement phase two of our development and if the vote of no confidence goes through it will have an extreme knock-on effect.

"The dithering in the Assembly reflects on south west Wales."

Cardigan is the customer support centre and European headquarters for CyberCall which provides services for a range of business customers.

The online revolution has long held out the promise of new jobs in more remote locations like rural west Wales.

Cybercall has already invested £500,000 at its Parc Teifi site in Cardigan.
