Derek Drew | I have used this service from the UK to setup a telephone and broadband service at my house in Brittany. I have spoken to others and received an email just yesterday from a reader of the site saying their own problem had been sorted out, and their property was outside Paris. NIGHTMARE. I too tried the English "help"???? 24 June 2008 at 22:21. Try your local France Telecom office! Offre valable pendant 12 mois pour les nouveaux clients puis 34,99€/mois. from what you sent me so far, I'd say it looks like an account problem, but do need to complete the "test de mire" to be certain. Posted by: Related article: Number change for France Telecom's English language helpline the number is 09 69 36 39 00. You may have to reboot your computer though. Posted by: All the best In English..? Martin Squires | So calling from the UK you would begin with 0033. This free number worked well after it was first created but now it is always busy..whenever you ring..and after a short message you are cut off so no hanging on for half an hour..equally no service! A few days ago I spoke to the FT English Speaking Helpline about both my FT land line telephone and my Orange broadband services. Katie Bolam | English-speaking helpline: 08 11 36 36 46 Calling hours: Mon-Fri: 8h30 - 17h30.

The only one I had very few problems with was Tele2 (still exists, but has been bought by SFR- I had few problems with them either for my handy, in the past) and I will probably return to Tele 2 later! Click on the link titled 'trouver facilement votre agence' at the foot of the page. Mobile ou Livebox en panne ? This has gone on for days now.... Is there a way of contacting them on line?

All I can say. I wasn't sure if this was possible as I had some flashing lights! Does anyone either have any tips (I have tried rebooting, leaving it off overnight, talking to it nicely, and nothing helps). can anyone offer a solution? yours hopefully 01 April 2008 at 16:28. Just come off the phone from FT. BUT yes! I have just tried the Francetelecom -english-speaking service and no response. There is no charge for transferring to the new offer, which would commence on the first day of the following month of your application. Quel horreur!! to the simplest configuration possible with just the Livebox plugged to the wall socket via a filter. Posted by: The only time I have ever managed to get through was when their computers were down, and no they wouldn't do anything...I was to call again later. I've e-mailed you my contact details if you want me to check your account status for you. I managed to get through to this number in March of this year, made all the arrangements for the installation of a telephone line and for broadband, sat in waiting for the engineer to connect us, he never turned up and I have never been able to get a response to this telephone number ever since, I now notice from our bank statement that they are charging us for the line, I still cannot get through on the english speaking number and cannot find any other number to contact them on.

Hi All, David Lovell | Posted by: Alice Norris | At least (since 1 June 08) the calls you make to them are less expensive - IF you call from a FIXED F-Telecom landline, or if you use their "Livebox"(which you must have to be an Internet customer of F-Telecom). Craig Pratt | Launch internet explorer and type the address he gave to you : http://192.168.1.1 In the pop up window type admin (=login) and admin (=password) then click on THE INTERNET "modifier" link and enter your own login (it begins with fti/) and your own password (there are both on your contract) and click on 'connect'. 1 month later and still they haven;t changed me back....

03 April 2008 at 18:47. Not sure if these are telephone calls or internet dial ups or internet access. They won't answer the phone. I've sent you e-mail on how to determine if it is a line sync problem or an account problem.

F-Telecom is supposed to be the most reliable, hence the cost factor, but I haven't found that to be the case. Why do they advertise these matters if they are unable to staff them ? In Orange, we can help you with any doubts you may have in English, French and German. It's all a lottery - pay your money and take your chance/choice! 01 July 2008 at 15:48.

Craig McGinty | On Sat the 21st June a storm brought down our neighbours cherry tree,and our phone line with it.They are French,and have phoned FT at least four times to my knowledge with no results.On Friday last, armed with ladders gaffa tape and a length of wire 'pinched'from another felled line I reconnected the line .I wonder how long ,if at all,it will be before they repair the line? 10 August 2006 at 08:27. worth a try. 20 May 2008 at 09:52. Tina Hamilton | It looks like the cables are connected properly but it still says to check the adsl connection after I type in my identification number and password to register. Certainly I wouldn't want to have to try and do it all in English - that would be sheer HELL! Investing in Orange. You can always change the address and any other things necessary later on - BUT..you WILL need either your own Bank/Postal Account in France, or a damned good friend!

Posted by: How do companies legally get away with this? Richard B | am now really worried that if i ever get through and get connected will i get a service? I tried logging onto the website and after testing my line it said my internet was "desactive" and when I tried to reconnect it just timed out. David Roberts | This was to get my line set up properly so I could start getting a service. After getting through on the English line eventually, they were actually fairly unhelpful and clearly unphased - what I really need is a fax number, a working email as this one disclosed doesn't work and an address! Please note that technical issues are to be handled by dialing three nine zero zero", Somehow, I feel that my request wasn't being handled and guess I'm going to have to do it the regular way, in French =(, Posted by: 09 August 2006 at 13:31. Help, Posted by: They set up the system by phone; the necessary router arriving as promised and a local difficulty sorted with the eventual attendance of a France Telecom engineer at the promisd time.

Chris Goddard | It worked fine for the past year and has now decided to not connect properly, my PC says it has an excellent connection but I can't log onto the net, and the box is flashing at me, rather than having a solid light.

Neuf (where I was a client) was miserable, and required an Ombudsman complaint to get away from, F-Telecom is going the same way, probably "bye-bye" end of this year!
