For those cruising around France and after mobile data, you just have to look at Free Mobile. They do a €20/month monthly rolling contract SIM with, as long as your device has a 4G modem, ... 50, yes, FIFTY gigs of data. Until recently it was 20gb, but over the last couple of days they upped it to 50gb. Got a bit of a shock when I went to check our remaining usage and saw that instead of 5gb we still had 35gb remaining.
The main caveat is your device has to have a 4G modem for the big data allowance, otherwise it's a paltry 3gb. You still get to use the allowance on 3G if there's no 4G coverage, you just have to have the 4G capable modem.
If you stick it in a phone, you also get unlimited calls, texts and MMS in France and unlimited texts to the EU.
You can buy the SIM cards from Free shops, or one of the loads of vending machines dotted around the country. Just give it a name, address (we used marina), email address and a credit card. Job done.
