Using a 3 contract mobile in France

Options
:confused: Can you advise? Does anyone know of a simple (and cheap!) way to use our contract mobiles (with inclusive minutes on "3") during an extended 5 week holiday in France to keep in touch with eachother and with a France landline? Is there an override number in France that can be used as there is over here? Any help and advice will be gratefully received. THANKS :T

    I used nrj from Carrefour and found them simple to top up and use (and check balance). Texting between nrj sims in France is 6c per message. Not bad at all.
    I think using "3" mobiles abroad will work out very expensive.
    ...and then the window licker said to me...
