Why foreign phones fail on toll-free numbers
The telecom block
French Numéros Verts (green numbers starting with 0800 or 0805) are geographically restricted to French domestic carriers and French overseas territories.
What works instead
Most banks, airlines and public offices also publish a regular number with an area code for callers abroad. Look on the back of your card, or on the contact page under “calling from abroad”. Call that number from your browser with QuikRing. You'll see the per-minute rate before you dial, and the rates for France are listed below.
A call that doesn't connect isn't charged.
The dialer also warns you before you dial a toll-free number in France.
Common organizations using these prefixes
French banks, national airlines, health insurance, family benefits, and employment services.

Frequently asked questions
Can I call 0800 numbers in France from abroad with QuikRing?
Usually not. France toll-free numbers are built for callers inside France, and international carriers generally can't reach them, QuikRing included. If the company publishes a regular number for callers abroad, call that one instead.
What should I call instead of toll-free numbers in France?
Look for the company's regular number with an area code: on the back of your card, or on its contact page under “calling from abroad”. You can call that number from your browser with QuikRing, and the per-minute rate is shown before you dial. A call that doesn't connect isn't charged.
