Welcome to allo France Helpline your French communications' partner.

We are providing a comprehensive service for English speakers seeking advice and translations in their direct liaisons with France.

From day one of finding your dream property in France to settling down and resolving all building renovation issues, you will find in us a very efficient and trustworthy personal assistant.

French property owners rescue centre

We provide property renovation services and can help you find the best priced Home Insurance and of course we can easily sort out your paperwork with the French Organisations.
We have contacts with English builders and Building Surveyors and we are also working with many excellent and reliable French registered artisans.
We are very knowledgeable in building and will assist you by preparing all documents needed by the artisans to conduct an accurate quote. It is remembered that only invoices from artisans registered in France can be claimed when selling a property and that using the services of a "handy man" would be infringing the law.

French property paperwork nightmare... sorted out in one call

Moving house usually involves tons of paperwork that most people will consider a headache.

But when it comes to buying a property in France one has to face all paperwork translation in English, from a "compromis de vente" and "acte de vente" at an early stage to setting up a home insurance and all services accounts by dealing with edf electricity and water board.

You can try to take things in your own hands by calling France Telecom's English helpline as seen on Craig McGinty's website ThisFrenchLife.com but it will not always prove as successful and easy as it says on the box...

We relieve you from the worries and hassle by taking charge of these inevitable and stressful technicalities, leaving you to enjoy the best of France et voilà!

We resolve all translation difficulties met by most French property owners when tackling paperwork and we are confident in providing the most personalised help and advice in the best interest of our client. Upon your request, we communicate directly with the French Organisations by phone and letter and find out the most accurate and suitable solution for you.
We can also supply you with a conference number.

English helpline for business self-starters in France

Starting a new life in France is daunting for most of us, but for an English speaker trying to settle down in France and at the same time starting a French business the whole operation can not only prove the worst and stressful brain teasing experience but may also be paved with perils.

With a population of 61 million in metropolitan France who could dream of making business with English expats only?
We understand that it will take time for you to become fluent French but we are also aware that your business cannot wait, so in the meantime you need a business partner whose role is to give you a helpful and efficient hand.

We will help you start by developing your customer base. We are not asking you to pay for advertising your business, we commit ourselves in bringing new customers to you and will help in consolidating your relationship with them.

We are not a consultancy, we do not overcharge for our time and effort which means that our fees are very affordable and on a result-basis only. Like you we work hard and, our communication skills being our best asset, we will introduce you to a new customer and will be your interpreter for as long as you need us, in doing so we help you building your business and becoming a French citizen at the same time.

Once this is done and dusted, you should not need us any longer but we can still remain friends.

Whatever your requirements will be, either a new school for your children, a family holiday with special accommodation, a dream place for enjoying a French retirement, a snug place tucked away in the country or a quaint fishing retreat, a bit of pampering for some or you while your partner is ascending the nearby peaks, or a biker's route and group accommodation for all your mates ;)
