Around Montmorillon

Hi all, does anyone please have an English speaking phone number for the dept of Finance in Montmorillon please? 

Thanks

I don't think such a thing exists, I'm afraid. It's a small department and I've never known them to have a dedicated English section.

If your French is up to it you could phone them on their regular number (05 49 83 39 39) and ask (in French) if there is anyone who speaks a little English (Y a-t-il quelqu'un là-bas qui parle un peu anglais, s'il vous plaît?). I know that several of the people there do speak some English although they seem reluctant to advertise the fact!

Alternatively, you could get a French speaking friend or service provider to phone on your behalf. There's a very helpful person near me who provides that service - let me know if you'd like an introduction. She's English by origin but based in France for many years. She has fluent French and is very knowledgeable about most aspects of French bureaucracy.

Agree with Brian, they do have some that will try English if you get stuck trying your French but they are not keen. I don't think there is a dedicated English speaking line, though they do have one a day a year for Brits if my memory serves me well around tax deceleration time.

You could do what I done and set up an account at: impots.gouv.fr/portail

Click "Votre Espace Particulier" from there you can create an account. *I use "FronceConnect" you can use that on a lot of official sites.

Once you have an account go to Tableau de bord > Messagerie sécurisée there you can send a message by clicking "Ecrire" and choosing a category.

I got a refund by using that and it works well. *Just use Google translate for your question and to read their answer.

Thanks so much for your help, both of you.
