Telekom has somewhat accustomed its customers to disappointing announcements in the last year after increasing the prices for services 3 times and giving up all stations in the Discovery group, including Eurosport. From March 1, the price increases announced by Telekom at the beginning of 2020 will come into force, and some expect that this increase will bring back to the grid of television stations those stations that disappeared on March 1 January.
Telekom he did not make it clear that the price increase is also done to support his licensing contracts for the stations he distributes in television subscriptions, but the connection with Discovery does not really exist. Just last week, an important Telekom manager announced that in order to continue licensing the stations of the Discovery group, he would have had to increase the prices of TV subscriptions by 1 euro per month, but this did not happen.
Telekom: HUGE Announcement for Customers Expected After March 1
Telekom there is no way to bring Discovery's stations back into its TV program grid without such an increase, or without losing money, and since the company is looking to make a profit, the hopes of some are in vain. Telekom customers who were hoping that March 1st would bring price increases for subscriptions and lost TV stations should better think about the fact that profit is the focus of the group's attention and not necessarily what they want.
Telekom it no longer wants to lose money in Romania, and announced that new price increases are still possible if losses are found for some of the services it offers to customers. This means that it is unlikely that an agreement with the Discovery group will be signed very soon by those from Telekom, so people should expect the definitive loss of those stations, including Eurosport, especially since the Americans signed with Vodafone for their diffusion.
Telekom she is not the only one who loses, and that's because Orange also lost those television stations, along with the hundreds of thousands of customers it has in Romania, and everything without any solution soon.
