EuroSIM and DataSIM can be topped up online (including from your phone) or from Tabac shops by buying a voucher.


Topping up Online


Topping up a EuroSIM online is easy; you can top up online on the LFM site, or from mylfm.eu (read about getting a mylfm.eu account).


You can add a new data pack in two ways.


  1. Add credit in Euros and then convert part or all of the balance to a data pack.
  2. Add a data bundle directly to your number. 

How to add credit before you go

  1. When you get your LFM SIM, take your current SIM out.
  2. Turn data and data roaming OFF.
  3. Insert LFM SIM.
  4. Do not make any changes to your network settings.
  5. Send a text with contents "BAL" (no talking marks) to 22213.
  6. You'll receive a response with your current balance.
  7. Go to www.lefrenchmobile.com/recharge/ and enter your phone number (06xxxxxxxx) in the Phone number field.
  8. Choose "Credit" in the second field. If you choose a data pack, the validity period starts immediately. You're better off choosing Euro credit then converting that to a data pack when you need it.
  9. Choose the amount of credit you'd like.
  10. Click top-up and pay (by Paypal and credit card).
  11. Confirm the credit has been added by sending a text with BAL to 22213.
  12. Remove LFM SIM, put your SIM back in.


Topping up before you go


If you register your card (instructions here), you can then top up online on the LFM site before you go by simply using your phone number to add credit and/or data packs


You can then confirm the balance by texting "BAL" to 22213 with the LFM SIM in your phone.


Topping up From a Tabac shop


Buying from a Tabac shop gives you a voucher, which you can then use to top your credit up with.
