Orange has updated its Special Series 130 Go mobile plan, now offering access to 5G+ technology, which was previously available only on more expensive plans. The monthly cost remains at 20.99 euros, a 4 euro discount from the original 24.99 euros, but this price is only available to new customers. This plan has a strong position on mobile plan comparison websites within the 5G+ category. It includes 130 gigabytes (Go) of data on Orange’s 5G+ network in France, 50 Go for use in Europe, the overseas departments, Switzerland, and Andorra, along with unlimited calls, SMS, and MMS within France and between these regions.
The 5G+ network relies entirely on 5G infrastructure, without any dependence on 4G, which results in lower latency and improved protection of SIM card information. Voice calls also use 5G, ensuring a fast data connection remains active during calls. In crowded areas like train stations or sports stadiums, 5G+ users can enjoy reserved bandwidth, provided their smartphone is compatible with 5G+ and they are in a covered area—coverage can be checked on Orange’s online map. If not in a covered area, the plan will switch to 5G or 4G on Orange’s network. Orange has ranked first in the annual Arcep survey on mobile service quality for the fifteenth year in a row.
The plan includes 50 Go for travel, with a reduced price when combined with a home broadband box. With 130 Go per month in France, data usage is unlikely to be a concern, as the average monthly consumption in France is 18.3 Go, according to Arcep. The additional 50 Go for use in Europe, the overseas departments, Switzerland, and Andorra is a notable feature, as these areas are often excluded from standard plans. Calls, SMS, and MMS remain unlimited both from these areas to France and between them.
The 4 euro discount is removed if the customer switches plans or cancels their line, as the base price is 24.99 euros per month. An extra 10 euros is required for SIM card activation fees, which must be paid in addition to the first month’s cost. The unlimited calls on the plan have two standard limits: a maximum of 250 different contacts per month and a maximum of 3 hours per call. These limits are generally not an issue for normal usage. Other plans from Orange include Oxygène, offering data limits from 100 to 170 Go in France and Europe. To retain your phone number when switching plans, you can call 3179 free of charge to obtain your RIO number, which you can then provide when ordering the new plan. The new operator will then handle the transfer of your mobile number to the new line at no cost.
