I won't go into detail on how you get your data. So lets just assume you get a csv file.

//class to strongly type our results
public class csvClass
{
   public csvClass(string name; string mu)
   {
     this.Name = name; this.MobileUsage = mu;
   }
   public string Name { get; set; }
   public string MobileUsage { get; set; }
}

//just load your csv from wherever you need
var csvData = from row in File.ReadLines(@"Path/to/file.csv")
              // data is still in one line. Split by delimiter
              let column = row.Split(';')
              //strongly type result
              select new csvClass
              {
                  //Ingore column 2 and 4
                  //Take first column
                  Name = column[0],
                  //Take third column
                  MobileUsage = column[2]
              };

After this you should have an IEnumerable<csvClass>() with just the 2 columns you want, which you can write to anywhere you want - new csv-file, database ...
