en.Wedoany.com Reported - The management of Italian telecom operators Tiscali and Linkem has been officially transferred to Smeraldo, a company under the Canarbino Group. Some Tiscali Mobile customers have recently received SMS notifications confirming that their services have been taken over by Smeraldo, with assurances that services will not be interrupted or subject to price changes.

According to a dedicated information page published on Tiscali's official website, as of June 1, 2026, the Tiscali and Linkem brands, previously managed by Tiscali Italia, a subsidiary of the Tessellis Group (Gruppo Tessellis), are now operated by Smeraldo S.p.A., a company under the Canarbino Group. On June 3, 2026, Tiscali Italia, Tessellis, and Smeraldo S.p.A. signed a lease agreement for the "Consumer Telecom" and "Webmail" business units of Tiscali Italia, accompanied by an irrevocable purchase commitment, while also authorizing Smeraldo to use the "Tiscali" and "Linkem" trademarks. The economic and operational effects of the transaction are retroactively effective from June 1, 2026.

This means that customer relationships generated up to May 31, 2026, remain with Tiscali Italia S.p.A., while those after that date belong to Smeraldo S.p.A., under the Canarbino Group. The Tessellis Group stated that the activation of this lease agreement will not cause any interruption to Tiscali and Linkem customer services, nor will it require any action from customers, and operations will continue to comply with applicable laws, contracts, and regulatory obligations.

For customers, services will not be interrupted or subject to price changes, but invoices and bank account or credit card charges will be updated to reflect the company name of Smeraldo S.p.A. Additionally, new contract terms have taken effect as of June 1, 2026, updating company information to indicate that Smeraldo has become the new service manager and trademark licensee. According to the dedicated information page, the integration with the Canarbino Group will in the future facilitate the development of multi-service bundled packages, combining connectivity, energy, and digital services, and offering exclusive benefits to customers of both brands.

In the mobile telephony sector, Tiscali operates as an ESP-type virtual mobile network operator (MVNO) on the TIM network, supporting 2G, 4G, 4G+, and, since May 13, 2024, 5G as well. With the lease agreement including Smeraldo's irrevocable purchase commitment, Tiscali and Linkem will be acquired by Smeraldo, ultimately coming under the ownership of the Canarbino Group.
