Oct 16 (Reuters) - Zegona Communications is
weighing ending a long-term contract with telecom network
provider Vantage Towers over prices charged by the Germany-based
company, Bloomberg News reported on Wednesday.
The British telecom investment company has been negotiating
lower prices for Vodafone Spain, which it bought last year, and
may shift to a different tower provider if Vantage does not
reduce the annual fees by 50 million euros ($54.34 million), the
report said, citing people familiar with the matter.
Vodafone Spain has approached other tower companies in
Spain, including Cellnex Telecom SA, American Tower
Corp ( AMT ) and Orange SA's Totem, to assess costs
and feasibility, the report added.
Vantage Towers, Cellnex, American Tower ( AMT ), and Orange did
not immediately respond to Reuters requests for comment, while
Zegona declined to comment.
