Israel’s Council for Cable TV and Satellite Broadcasting has declined to approve a price increase for pay-TV services put forward by satellite service Yes.
Special offers planned by the DTH broadcaster have also been put on hold.
The decision came alongside a hearing on the setting of rates for Yes and its cable counterpart Hot.
The council said it believes the proposals risk damaging competition and raised concerns over discrimination. It’s also announced plans to establish a policy on the implementation of tariffs. This would oblige operators to publish full details of their rates.
No new offers would be permitted until the policy has been established.
Yes said it was studying the full implications of the hearing and would submit comments by the February 1, 2016 deadline.
