Choosing a French bank account can be a bit daunting but the general rule is that you definitely get what you pay for. The free bank accounts generally do not offer Internet banking in English or have customer service advisers who speak English. It is definitely worth considering a fee based account which should not be more than €50 per year. This will provide you with a French bank account that offers Internet banking you can understand and bilingual staff which will mean that you will be able to resolve any issues that come up quickly and easily.
