It's quite rare to see Orange in a selection of mobile plans, especially when it comes to price. Nevertheless, the incumbent operator strikes a blow with this 70 GB package usually already offered in promotion at 14.99 euros monthly and which this time goes to only 9.99 euros per month thanks to the promo code BF2021 .
You still have to plan for a one-year commitment at this price before going back to 29.99 euros per month. With this, you have to count on unlimited communications: calls; SMS and MMS everywhere in France, Europe, DOM, Switzerland and Andorra. On the data side abroad, Orange does not do things by halves since the entire basic envelope (70GB) can be used from the same areas mentioned above.

Bouygues Telecom is also taking advantage of Black Friday to review its range of mobile plans. We focus on the 100 GB package, this time completely without obligation, at 12.99 euros per month. The quality of the Bouygues Telecom network, in particular for communications, is put to good use: there too, the latter are unlimited, whether for calls, SMS and MMS. For data abroad, it's more classic with a dedicated envelope of 15 GB to be used in Europe and DOM.

RED, for its part, does not deck out its current operation with a “Black Friday special” but is relaunching its “Big Red” offer with more competitive packages than usual. In this case, it is the 200 GB package which is the most interesting, since it is only listed at 15 euros monthly, still without commitment and without doubled price after the first year. Here again, calls, SMS and MMS are unlimited everywhere in France, from the European Union and the overseas departments. RED also provides an envelope of 15 GB to be used outside metropolitan territory.

Okay, we admit, we're cheating a bit for this one. But even if Free does not participate directly in Black Friday, it is still necessary to highlight its current offer: 80 GB of 4G for only 9.99 euros per month for one year before going to 150 GB of 4G / 5G for 19.99 euros monthly. The big advantage necessarily concerns Freebox customers who can directly upgrade to the unlimited 5G/5G package for the same price as the 80 GB package. The package also includes unlimited calls, SMS and MMS with 10 GB from the Europe and overseas departments. A small bonus for football fans, access to the Free Ligue 1 application is completely free.

You can of course keep your current mobile number by changing plans. First of all, it is necessary to add 10 euros to the total of your order to obtain the new triple-cut SIM. The change of operator is then done without interruption if you keep your number. It's free and all you have to do is provide the RIO code for your line when registering. To do so, nothing could be simpler: just call 3179, the call is free. During the call, your RIO number will be dictated to you as well as the end date of your commitment with your operator. Don't worry, you have nothing to write down since an SMS will be sent to you immediately summarizing this information!
Black Friday is an American expression, which roughly designates the opening of the Christmas shopping period. It is historically linked to several factors: a bridge that American employees took between Thanksgiving (always a Thursday) and the following Monday, overtime by American law enforcement or traffic jams. In short, everything and anything, but which has been transformed by the magic of media tradition into a commercial event of promotions. It has exported extremely well from the United States for a good ten years.
