B&YOU: carte prépayée

NFH · 02-07-2015, 09:05

I've just received the following e-mail from Simyo:

Bonjour ,

Le 12 novembre prochain, Bouygues Telecom cessera définitivement d'exploiter la marque simyo.
A cette occasion, dès le 26 août, votre offre prépayée sera rebaptisée « Carte Prépayée Bouygues Telecom », et vous aurez accès à l'espace client Bouygues Telecom.

Pas d'autres changements pour vous : vous conserverez votre ligne, vos recharges sans durée de validité et la possibilité de recharger dans votre point de vente habituel, par téléphone ou par internet.

Rendez-vous dans l'espace client simyo.fr pour en savoir plus.

L'équipe simyo.

Maybe using the Bouygues website will be better. I live in the US and It would be great if I could use a non-French credit card to recharge. I'm not familiar with the Bouygues website, so I don't know how it will work out.

Thanks for asking us to the change!

new official name "Carte Prépayée Bouygues Telecom sans durée de validité"

Yes, one advantage is that you can now use Bouygues Telecom's smartphone apps to check your balance, instead of having to dial 630, which is clumsy as well as being chargeable outside France.

Does anyone know what the latest APN is?

Sorry, I don't know which APN to use. Can you tell me which app you're talking about. The only app I can find that lets you manage your account appears to be an unofficial one. What's the name of the one you're using?

The APN that I successfully used today in France was mmsbouygtel.com (for mainstream internet not MMS).

My B&You SIM cards are not getting 4G, so I asked them to swap them in a Bouygues Telecom shop. They couldn't find me on the system, so I gave up.
