You can choose 5 days unlimited data, 7 days unlimited data, 10 days unlimited data, 15 days unlimited data, 20 days unlimited data, 30 days unlimited data, 60 days unlimited data and 90 days unlimited data. You can contact us at any time if you’re not sure which plan is best for you.

The France eSIM uses Orange/Societe Francaise du Radiotelephone/Bouygues Telecom/Free Mobile, one of the best eSIM providers in each country.

This eSIM includes unlimited data for the contracted time. However, please note that the operator may reserve the right to apply a Fair Usage Policy, as it applies to all other network users. In particular, if the operator estimates the usage of more than 90GB of data in a month, it may temporarily reduce the speed to between 256-1024KB to avoid affecting other users. This limitation is intended to prevent network saturation and will be removed within 24 hours. If you think the local operator has limited your speed, please get in touch with us by chat, and we will check if there is any incidence and how to restore your rate to the maximum speed allowed by the network.

The France eSIM allows you to use mobile data and make calls. It includes an Austrian (+43) phone number to make calls for up to 60 mins and receive calls for up to 60 mins. Also, you can still make calls and send messages using apps like WhatsApp with your data.

You will be able to receive calls from anywhere in the world, but only call to countries with coverage. Please make sure to check the technical specs.

As you will be assigned an Austrian number (+43) in the case of making or receiving calls locally within Austria, it is not necessary to dial the prefix. However, if you are calling from another of the countries allowed to make calls, you will need to dial the country code of the European country you are calling. You will be able to make calls only to countries with coverage. Please check our technical specs.

You can receive calls from any country. However, it’s important to note that when communicating with individuals outside the area of your assigned number (+43 Austria), it may be considered an international call, and charges may apply based on that person’s service provider.

With your Holafly France eSIM, you have 60 minutes to make calls and 60 minutes to receive them. Remember that these are independent; in other words, you have a total of 120 minutes to enjoy during your trip.

If you need more minutes, you can purchase them through our website or by contacting our Customer Service team.
