Forget data roaming charges - From €6/day
As you know, when using mobile internet abroad or your smartphone, tablet or laptop, your get charged for each email received and every web page you look at. These roaming charges are so high that the term "bill shock" has been used.
At FrenchConnection, we believe that each time you come to France, you should be able to use the Internet as if you were at home. We offer local rates between 7 and 250 times lower than your home mobile provider. Rent a mobile hotspot (some call the Mifi, pocket wifi, internet bubble...) from us, connect to its wifi signal and surf from as low as 6 cents per megabyte and forget the data roaming charges.
Browse internet freely
Upon arrival in France, you hire a mobile wifi hotspot (otherwise known as Mifi or pocket wifi) from us much like if you were renting a car. You get a daily allowance of 100MB. This is a big allowance; on average you use 250MB to 500MB per month at home. If you use more, you are charged at the same low, daily rate - no hidden charges, no small print. Now, you can surf the way you were in your country. You can even use VOIP programs like Skype! Book now and save on roaming charges! You pick up the wifi/mifi hotspot, and connect. Then you drop the device in your pocket and forget it. You can use up to 5 devices at once, including smart phones, tablet, laptops etc. Before you leave France, drop the device back in any yellow French post-box. A prepaid envelope is included to make it super simple. No need to find a prepaid data SimCard, no need to swap and configure. Just press the button; it connects to SFR's 3G network, et voila!
Why us?
There are quite a few good reasons to choose us: - We are in France. This means quick replacement in case of a problem. We are also easy to contact via a free phone number. - Your consumption is averaged. This means that if you rent 10 days, you have 1000MB, not 10 days with 100MB each. Use these MB whenever you want, or spread them regularly. You choose! - We give you Internet, not some bits of Internet. You can use web, mail, Skype or any VOIP software. - We allow you to monitor your consumption! On the back of your device, and in the shipment confirmation email, you have a web address. Access this page anytime and know how much you have consumed, and how many MB you still have! We will also send you regular emails when you pass certain limits (50% of total allowance, 75%, 100%, 150%, 250%). - We are flexible. If we have not shipped your device yet, cancel at no cost. Change your dates both ways. If the device has already been sent, you can still change the booking to the minimum of 1 day. - We provide you with a prepaid return envelope. And it fits in the mailboxes. No need to find an open post office, no need to pay for stamps. Just put the device in its case, the case in the envelope and drop in the closest yellow mailbox before leaving France.
