Owens88 Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 I seem to recall seeing something about French operators having a form of temporary opt-in ADSL. I am now struggling to find any reference to it and would welcome any advice.Thanks in advance.John(p.s. my line in France is with FT and is occasionally suspended under the maison secondaire system) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnOther Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 I don't think this exists unfortunately although I'm quite happy for someone to prove me wrong.The nearest I know of is Teleconnect who have a sans engagement policy where you can cancel and re-subscribe at any time but there are substantial cancellation and reconnection fees not to mention having to return their router or get charged for it so it makes absolutely no economic sense whatsoever. You can see the fees HERESome ISP's have a cheap package for around €14/mth I believe but not sure which. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owens88 Posted August 27, 2008 Author Share Posted August 27, 2008 Hi ErnieThanks.I am hoping that you are wrong.http://abonnez-vous.orange.fr/asnresidentiel/hd/hdtv.aspx?idnode=180 If my potential renter 'bites' then I will ring FT and investigate any hidden downsides. I'll list them here. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 it is not exactly PAYG internet. - in the sense of mobile phone PAYG. If you manage to find the terms and conditions, there will somethng like giving one or two months written notice of resiliation. This will make it a bit difficult to stop and start it I imagine.Depending on where the house is, the cheapest service will be from Neuf or tele2 - 14.90 or 19.90 a month with some conditions normally and (unlike Orange) with no speed limit.Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
