Sosh internet plans
Sosh fibre Optics plans
Sosh sells fibre-optic and ADSL internet plans. Fibre optics is the option to consider first, since the French government has decided to close the ADSL copper network. The roll-out of fibre optics is still underway, and although the process is well advanced, there are still areas not covered by fibre optics. You should therefore check your eligibility before you choose which plan to subscribe. Sosh fibre optic broadband deal is contract-free and sold at €25.99.

The scores may seem low, but they need to be put into perspective. Operators always receive negative comments on the Internet because it is mainly dissatisfied subscribers who post comments.
If we look in detail, we can see that customer reviews for Sosh, as is the case for all telecommunications operators in France, are mixed. Here is a quick summary of what customers have been reporting online about Sosh:
- Efficient customer service: customers reported finding the Sosh website straightforward and easy to use
- Good cellphone coverage: Sosh customers have access to Orange's 5G network, which is currently the most advanced in France
- Expensive: some customers consider Sosh's offers to be expensive compared to the competition
✅ Our opinion of Sosh is positive. Sosh's prices are low and allow you to benefit from the quality of the Orange network, France's No. 1 operator. This is an ideal option for students and for expats in France, as subscriptions are contract-free. The main drawbacks with Sosh are its online-only customer service and the absence of an English helpline.
