SFR (originally Société Française de Radiotéléphonie, no longer expanded) is a French mobile phone company. It has 17 million clients, including over 1.5 million using 3G (specifically UMTS) technology. Along with Bouygues Télécom and Orange SA, it was ordered to pay 535 million Euros by way of fine for the formation of an illegal cartel (see Le Canard Enchaîné) (this decision is being appealed).
