How to set up a direct debit to pay your taxes in France.



In order to set up a direct debit to pay your taxes in France, please following this link here


Under the heading ‘prĂ©lèvement automatique’,
Click on ‘adhĂ©rer au prĂ©lèvement mensuel’.
Choose what tax you wish to pay :
ImpĂ´ts sur le revenue (Income tax), Taxe foncière, Taxe d’habitation, Cotisation foncière des entreprises. 

(It seems that you have to do one tax at the time). 

Entre the tax reference number ‘RĂ©fĂ©rence de l'avis’.  You will find this number on your last tax.
Enter your bank details. (It has to be a French bank account).
And enter your email address twice.
If you want to know the amount you will be paying each month, click on ‘Calculer votre Ă©chĂ©ancier’
Click on ‘confirmer’. 

You will get an email from the tax office to confirm this direct debit. 

You can also visit your nearest 'TrĂ©sor Public' and set up the direct debits there.

How to get the 3G working on Smartphones with phone provider Free




 If like me you have just bought a Smartphone and use Free as your phone provider you might wonder how to get the 3G (ClĂ© 3 G) working.

Although everything was turned on on the phone, I could not use the 3G. I asked various friends who knew a bit more than me but they could not help. I looked online for answers.. I was told my phone could be faulty.. I was getting frustrated..  

To sort it out was very easy! I contacted Free on their help line (3244 – premium call!) and they told me to simply download an application called ‘mobileconfig’.  Once downloaded, it worked straight away!

I hope this post will help others who live in France and who have the same problem that I had!

Mobile phones and driving in France




In France, like in most European countries, it is illegal to use a mobile phone held in the hand while driving.
If you get caught, you could face a fine of €135 and three penalty points on your driving licence.

Prior to 2012, it was €35 and 1 point.  

The use of hands-free phones is authorized in France.
