I spent a humongous amount of time in the (huge) book section of FNAC during our last two visits to…read moreParis (in 12/04 & 5/10) and I'm sure I'll do the same thing the next time we visit Paris; their selection of photo/etc. books (my passion) is really terrific. I also visited two of FNAC's other bookstore locations in Paris, but nothing quite compares to the one at des Halles. The reason why I'm not giving five stars is because the employees were rather perfunctory. Still, I gladly spent a small fortune on books each time because of the great selection.

No one answered my…read moreemail even after a weeks and someone from facebook support arogantly told me that I would probably never get an answer. I don't speak French so I naturally wanted to solve this problem by email or text since I can translate things.. It's impossible to get an answer. They don't do anything to help you and their rules are ridiculous. I even bought an issurance for the concert ticket and they are not even willing to reply to me. I'll never buy anything there again.

ORANGE is a rip-off. On our Sept. trip to Paris, we purchased two "ORANGE HOLIDAY" sim cards at…read morethe airport. The salesperson assured us all we had to do was put these new sim cards into our phones, but no, he would not do it for us. And also told us the special little tool for accessing the SIM port on our phones was included in the envelope (it was not). We attempted to install both SIM cards, neither of which worked. Finally got help from a Lyca (sp?) store in Paris, and purchased NEW SIM cards from another carrier, which worked great. I haven't yet found a customer service email online to get a refund. The live chat person hung up on me after giving me a 4-DIGIT phone number to call, which would not, of course, work in the US. Really bad customer service, and what a rip-off.

I needed some service work done on a macbook and didn't want to deal with the Louvre so I thought…read morethat I would check out the Opéra store. The building is magnificent, not the usual glass, white-walled Apple store, but a restoration of a beautiful old bank. Complete with spiral staircases, marble and tile floors, wrought-iron railings, and a huge skylight, the store itself is a work of art. The display space for iphones, ipads, and computers is big enough to be accessible even with the huge crowds this store can draw. I had made a Genius Bar reservation online so I didn't have to wait but I would not advise just showing up and hoping to be served as the store was packed on both visits. The Genius Bar tech was incredibly friendly and competent. The other techs that I saw were incredibly patient given the questions that people were asking them. The Macbook was under European consumer warranty even if no longer covered by Applecare but the tech said they could still provide the 400€ motherboard replacement for free (instead of having to pass through Darty where it was purchased). All said, another fantastic Apple support experience by a courteous, competent and efficient staff.

I left my computer in this place a month ago. I was in Paris on holiday. I told the business owner…read moreI needed to collect computer by leaving time otherwise better to fix at home. I turned up at the agreed time. The machine was is pieces on his desk. I had received no communication from him. I was offered no opportunity to have the machine sent to me at a later date so I had to COME BACK to Paris from London to collect it. I told him VERY clearly the dates. I was assured it will be ready. It was not. As I write this it seems unbelievable. I came back the FOLLOWING weekend and it still wasn't ready. I was in shock and didn't have anyone in France who could help me deal with it. I went back to England. The man assured me I would have my computer within 2 days by mail. Two weeks later I have no computer and no information from him about when it will arrive. For a while, he gave me dates. Now he has gone completely quiet. I have no idea what to do. I guess I have to go to the police. It's absurd. Good luck if you choose to go here and DEFINITELY DON'T GO IF YOU ARE A TOURIST. The man is not a bad person but he's not reliable.
