PART II -- RULES 12b-25(b) AND (c)

If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or
expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the
following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate)

       (a)  The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this
            form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or
            expense;
       (b)  The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report
            on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, 11-K or Form N-SAR, or portion thereof,
/X/         will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar day following
            the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly report of
            transition report on Form 10-Q, or portion thereof will be filed
            on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due
            date; and
       (c)  The accountant's statement or other exhibit required by Rule
            12b-25(c) has been attached if applicable.

PART III -- NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q,
N-SAR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within
the prescribed time period.

As described in Incomnet's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1998 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three month
period ended March 31, 1999, Incomnet's management has been seeking to raise
additional equity capital and has been engaged in discussions with its
primary lender, Ironwood Telecom LLC, concerning the possible conversion into
equity of Incomnet's $16.8 million debt with Ironwood. In addition, during
the second quarter of 1999, Incomnet's management has been involved in
analyzing potential acquisition targets in the telecommunications industry
and other strategic options. As a result, Incomnet has a pending material
event which will impact its disclosures in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
for the Quarter ended June 30, 1999. Therefore, to provide to our
shareholders the most current and meaningful information regarding Incomnet,
the preparation of Incomnet's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter
ended June 30, 1999 has been delayed. Incomnet currently expects to file its
Form 10-Q on or before August 23, 1999.

                                ATTACHMENT NO.1

Incomnet anticipates that the Consolidated Statement of Operations to be
filed with the Form 10-Q will contain significant changes in its results of
operations between the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1999 and
1998. Total net sales decreased approximately $7.7 million and $16.3 million
to $7.9 million and $16.7 million during the three and six month periods
ended June 30, 1999, respectively from $15.6 million and $33.0 million during
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively. This
decline is attributable to significantly lower sales at Incomnet
Communications Corp. ("ICC") as a result of the i) disruptions during the
first half of 1998 in the independent representative organization which was
subsequently reorganized by late 1998; and ii) the difficulty in recruiting
additional representatives given the financial condition of the Company. As a
result, planned levels of operations for 1999 have not been achieved.
Incomnet is continuing to take steps to revitalize ICC's network marketing
organization, including developing new telecommunications products and an
internet access product that is more competitive, working closer with its
Representatives to help them better understand the products and services
provided by ICC, developing new commission and bonus programs that will make
ICC more competitive in attracting new Representatives, and expanding its
focus on Representative recruiting from primarily a Southern California focus
to a nationwide program. The revitalization of ICC's network marketing
organization has occurred slower than management's expectations. However,
management is hopeful its new marketing plans have and will continue to
revitalize ICC's efforts to attract additional Representatives. In addition
to revitalizing its network marketing organization, ICC also is continuing a
cost control program that is anticipated to result in a more efficient
operation and a reduced cost structure overall. Despite these efforts, total
general and administrative costs for 1999 will continue to be high as a
percentage of net sales due to the base costs of needed infrastructure
support including facilities, customer service, and other back office
operations.

Incomnet's losses for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1999 are
estimated to be approximately $4.1 million and $5.6 million, respectively, as
compared with $2.2 million and $4.6 million for the three and six month
periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively. The losses are primarily
attributable to a decline in sales at ICC for reasons described above offset
by a gain on disposal of its subsidiary, GenSource, during only the six month
period ended June 30, 1999 of approximately $1.7 million.
