I was able to get a SIM card before having a French bank account. They did ask me for an address, but they just wrote something randomly in. Only afterwards I realized that their prices were so high that it was cheaper to use an Italian phone in roaming. For people staying in France for longish: take into account that prepaid cards need to be recharged around 10€ each month, otherwise your credit expires.
