The first day of our blog

Welcome to the LeLingo.fr Blog. 

Our blog will cover day to day events in the life of our innovative bilingual helpline service. 

Before we start the blog, here is some useful information that we think will help you get the most out of our bilingual helpline service.

To our knowledge, this is a unique service. You have to think of it as having your personal English - French - English interpreter 'right next to you' wherever you are, 7 days a week.

As a subscriber - and in virtually any situation - all you have to is call the helpline. You can liken it to having a fully bilingual friend on hand to help you with language problems whenever you need it.

We can cope with local accents, fast speaking, slow speaking, slurred speaking, in fact with any French speaking person around the world. So our service is not restricted to France. We offer a global French/English service.

What do you need to do benefit from this service?

You need to be a subscriber, to join LeLingo.fr, and you will need to call your helpline from a registered telephone number.

You need a telephone, mobile or fixed line, which is registered with LeLingo.fr and you must display your number when you call. You can register up to two telephone numbers when you join LeLingo.fr.

Why? Because this is the only way we can identify you as a member of the helpline service. Our telephone system is programmed with all current members registered telephone number(s) to protect your account and our service to you.

You will be calling a French mobile number, it is a mobile number so that our duty interpreter can be sure of receiving your call wherever he/she is within the mobile network coverage in France.  This mobile helpline is available 7/7 and 24/24.

And YES, this means that someone is 'welded' to the helpline mobile telephone!

Please note that before 9am and after 7pm Paris time, help is charged at a premium rate. Refer to out pricing page for details. 

Once you have joined LeLingo.fr you will receive your personal account number and the dedicated mobile number for you to call.

If you have any questions and would like more information about our service you can call our general enquiries line on +33 660 556 664 during office hours.

We look forward to helping you.
