This year, telecom operators seem generally less active than in previous years for the start of the school year. There are always a few exceptions like La Poste Mobile. He who relies on the network of SFR can boast to offer a free mobile subscription in 2022. How is it possible ?
If you go to the official website of La Poste Mobile, you will be surprised: all mobile plans are displayed at 0€. However, this special offer only lasts the first 4 months of subscription: this allows you to have a free plan until the end of 2022. These are non-binding subscriptions, so you can cancel whenever you want. .

Today, changing your mobile plan only takes a few minutes: you have to call 3179 (free number with automatic voice) and ask for your RIO code. Once you have this code, you can transfer your number from one operator to another (via a simple subscription form like on the La Poste Mobile website). At the same time, this will allow you to cancel your current mobile plan.
Regulators have worked hard in France to simplify operator switching. They want customers to be free to switch between them to always get the best price. It is for this reason that the mobile plan of La Poste is a good choice: you can jump on the opportunity now to have a free plan. And then, after 4 months, you can always go somewhere else.

The best package in the range
Over the first 4 months, it is in your best interest to choose the mobile plan with 100 GB, unlimited calls, SMS and MMS. This is the one that will allow you to save the most since it is also the most expensive (14.99 euros per month in normal times). That said, in the longer term, the best value for money from the operator is the one with 50 GB.
It must be said that this envelope of 50 GB will already be more than enough for the general public. An average French person uses between 20 and 40 GB per month, so this intermediate offer should largely do the trick. For calls, this free plan in 2022 contains unlimited calls, SMS and MMS and 50 GB for 9.99 euros per month in normal times. If you have an internet box at SFR, you will be entitled to a discount of one euro on your subscription from 2023.
Finally, there is the operator’s mini package: 100 MB, 2 hours of calls and unlimited SMS/MMS which is also free. But unlike the other two, it remains free in the long term if you are a Box SFR customer. Those who are not will see their bill go up to 4.99 euros per month after the first year. Several ISPs offer a free plan over a few months for their box customers: they are however very limited and not sufficient for standard use.

La Poste Mobile is certainly an MVNO, but it has a physical presence that the other players do not have. If you have a question about your mobile plan, you can always go to one of the 10,000 post offices in France for help. No less than 30,000 advisors are ready to answer your questions. There is also the possibility to go via the website or to call customer support by phone.
La Poste Mobile, good value for money
In recent years, La Poste Mobile has earned a good reputation in the market. Regularly offering prices and subscriptions exclusively on the web, it competes with more well-known operators. Its 50 GB mobile plan at 9.99 euros (except for the first months when it is free) is a very good choice. To give you a point of comparison, its rival RED by SFR does not offer a (decent) subscription for less than 15 euros per month at the moment.
Conclusion: should you choose this free mobile plan in 2022? The answer is yes. In the short term, you save a lot of money. In the medium term, you will be switched to a reasonable price for such a subscription. And if that doesn’t suit you, you can always choose to cancel and go to a competitor. In general, the month of January is always conducive to discounts from operators, there may be a card to play.
In any case, this special back-to-school offer on the La Poste Mobile mobile plan is welcome. It’s the only operator to offer a free mobile plan with such a data envelope. Admittedly, it only lasts 4 months but that’s not bad. By default, you have access to the 4G network but if necessary, you can add an option (paid) which will also give you access to 5G. It will be necessary to ensure that your phone is itself already compatible with 5G so that you can take full advantage of it.
