The Romanian incumbent telco Romtelecom has launched two new broadband internet packages offering access speeds of up to 30 Mbps.
Available initially in 10 cities, they are 50% faster than those offered until now to both companies and residential customers.
Subscriptions are available for two and three year contracts and start from €9.90 a month.
OTE-backed Romtelecom operates Dolce, Romania’s second most popular DTH platform after RCS/RDS-owned Digi TV, and also plans to shortly launch an IPTV service.
