Making phone calls in Algeria

Hi,

When settling in Algeria, one of the priorities is to be able to make phone calls.

How to proceed to get a landline installed in Algeria?

What are the mobile operators?

What is your average monthly budget?

Thank you in advance for sharing your experience,

Maximilien

Hi there,

Getting a landline is pretty difficult since there is only one operator on the market: Algerie Telecom. This is a state owned company, that is struggling to satisfy the demand. If you need one installed, please contact Algerie Telecom, details are on their website.
On the other hand, mobile operators are doing great. The first one is Ooredoo (considered as the best one in terms of offer and price), followed by djezzy (also interesting) and mobilis (I don't really know them). All of them have branches in all cities and are easy to find.

As far as I am concerned, I have a 3G monthly subscription for 2000 da (around 20 euros) but you can have different types of top up (daily, weekly or monthly).
