    If you’re asking about multiple plans, you need the plural article *les*.

  • Et les forfaits d'Internet ?

    Capitalising *Internet* is acceptable in English but not typical in French; keep it lowercase.

Cultural Tip

In France, the word *forfait* is most often associated with mobile phone plans (voice, SMS, data). When you’re talking about a fixed‑line broadband service, people may prefer *abonnement* or *offre*. Also, French salespeople love to use the phrase *nos forfaits internet* in promotional material, so hearing it will help you sound more native.
