After getting in the control of Florin Călinescu, the television station had gone on a decline. Soon after, most of its movies were transferred to other stations, Tele7 remaining only with religious B rated movies and similar shows.
In 2005, the station temporarily closed its gates with the message that the workers were not paid in months, and they had neither any adequate sanitary facilities. Soon after, the station closed down for good.
On November 29, 2021, Tele7ABC relaunched online. The Artsma production house is now responsible, owned by Raluca Găină (producer and director at stations such as A7TV, Canal 33 and former TVR collaborator) and Mihai Simon (music producer).
