There are 3 networks in France: Orange, SFR and Bouygues.
You can choose to go for 2 different tariffs:
- Pay monthly (forfait):
The majority of people in the France pay their mobile
phone monthly easily by direct debit as they would
with electricity and gas. An average price is 30 € for 2-3 hours of calling depending on the
tariff (you can choose from 1 hour to 10 hours of
calling) and the company. You can ask for different
additional options like “international calls”, “bill
with details”... All additional calls exceeding the
package are charged at about 30 cents per minute.
Voicemail is free.
- Pay
as you go (sans abonnement): They are called
Mobicarte at Orange’s, Nomad at Bouygue’s, Entrée Libre
at SFR’s. The price is about 20 € for 90 minutes.
