B&YOU: carte prépayée

Effendi · **B&YOU: carte prépayée -** 13-09-2012, 07:59

Bouygues Telecom, using its other brand B&YOU has launched a new revolutionary (for France) prepaid offer!

- € 0,10/min for national calls
- € 0,05 for national SMS
- € 0,05/MB for data
- € 4.99 starting kit (including € 1,50 of credit)
...and, most important: unlimited validity, you just need to use it (paying event) at least once every 12 months.

The only drawback is that it's only sold online so it could be complicated to get it for a foreigner...

Hopefully some good person from France will soon enable foreigners to get hold of this!

...if you have a french address to which you can send the sim...

Can you pay with a foreign CC and just have it shipped to a hotel?

It gets even better. They're already issuing nano-SIMs!

"Je choisis ma carte SIM en fonction de mon téléphone :

Carte SIM standard et micro SIM
Compatible avec la majorité des téléphones
Carte SIM nano
Uniquement pour iPhone 5"

One minor point - the €1.50 included credit is valid for only one month. It is the subsequent top-ups which have unlimited validity, subject to a chargeable event every year.

Hi
I have a french address but because I do not have a french credit card it will not process my request.

Lycamobile charges €0.09/MB (rounded to the next megabyte), whereas B&You charges €0.05/MB (rounded to the next kilobyte). Also, you only need to use B&You once per year, whereas you have to use Lycamobile every 80 days to stop it from expiring.
