Hi Leeny1. Welcome to Europe.

Your phone will work fine here: 3G is mostly on 2100 MHz and some 900 MHz, which is covered. 4G you need for Free on 2600 MHz. Additionally 800 MHz is used here for 4G, that you don't have. So you will have a more limited coverage for 4G especially in the countryside, but in most populated areas you'll be allright with fast data.

What the Free Mobile option is concerned, I really don't understand that users are not reading the article. Because most questions that we get refer to something which is not written here. Again, Free mobile is a contract that needs to be suspended in written mail to Free in Paris. Additionally, the sell once-off prepaid SIMs that can't be topped up, nor extended in time. They are for 30 days only. If you extend them, they will turn to a contract: Free is going to charge your credit card month by month anywhere in the world, even if you don't use their service as long as you don't terminate your contract.

Because of the special French situation we keep on listing the Free contracts here (against our rules being a prepaid site), but you should be aware of it. We have received many reports of users being charged for not suspending their contract when leaving France.
