New offer from Lebara for new customers

5GB Data at £1.99 p/m for 6 months, £4.90 thereafter

Same cost over 12 months as the last offer (£41.34 over 12 months) - Initial 6 months offer is £1.99 per month instead of 99p. But after 6 months, it is £4.90 per month instead of £5.90. So after 6 months, 5GB data for £4.90 is not that bad if you intend to continue with the plan

There is 20GB deal for £1.99 for the first 3 months through MSM. Potential £10.00 TCB. I posted that deal but HUKD decided to merge it with this one because it's similar however it's not similar at all. Link below

    The 3Gb plan is now 300 minutes, the previous offer I purchased this morning was unlimited. If that's important to you

    If anyone knows, how quick would the porting be done? I’m currently using Smarty which uses Three and I pay like £6 for 4gb per month. I think the deal is over now but gotta be prepared for the next one

    as a recent example from BT to lebara -
    requested early monday AM around 9am , number was ported tuesday 7am active

    avoid weekends - imo do the above if possible. basically do it early in the day and early in the week (edited)

    Due to me having 2 numbers on my Vodafone account I had to speak to someone to get my PAC codes. They said they wont work on lebara as the FCA have banned internal porting. But lebara is a separate company just using the Vodafone network right? Anyone ported a number recently from Vodafone?
    HUKDealSeeker's avatar
    HUKDealSeeker
    Why is FCA involved in a telecom porting rule and not OFCOM? Porting is done based on service provider and not network provider so porting from Vodafone to Lebara is allowed.

    I'm currently on MSE plan paying £5.95 per month for 4gb which is clearly not good anymore given this deal.
    Question-- can I get on this deal or even the one on their site £5/month as an existing customer and keep the same number?
    Rahan's avatar
    Rahan
    Yes. You can purchase the £5 (without discount) plan from Lebara's website and select existing sim when clicking through to buy. You can also login to the website and view your existing plan and you should be able to "buy a plan" from there.

    Best to turn off auto renew on the old plan and purchase on the day it expires. (edited)

    I may have to switch to Lebara from Lyca who have just changed their network from O2 to EE (without informing customers)!.....and EE coverage is non existent in one of my places.

    Did the same, looking for a decent data, and 6 months for Lebara, can't find one though?

    I just signed up to this deal. Always prefer staying Lebara. I just ported over my number back from Lyca, which was a terrible experience, so many delays. So hard to get through to customer service with Lyca and so much easier with Lebara. In 6 months I will port out again and back in.

    One notable issue I found with Lebara (Though I am pro Lebara and have no complaints then this one) is the call would drop at 29 min 50 Secs exactly in case you are waiting for an operator on the HMRC line or any customer care. Lebara have acknowledged the issue and say they have no solution for it currently sadly.
    Soni210's avatar
    Soni210
    That’s a real problem to have it as a primary number
  9. chrissafc's avatar

    One thing I find annoying with Lebara is on Bluetooth on the car when someone rings it comes up with the number for example +4412344567 and doesn't display the name. Not an issue on Lyca
    afaruque74's avatar
    afaruque74
    Lyca was good but they didn't support WiFi calling as yet. That's why I had to leave Lyca.

    If you are an existing customer chat with the representative and they will offer £4.90 5GB deal if you tell them you would switch.

    They do 5GB for £5 on their website, so I wouldn't bother.

    I signed up for the 5p 3GB deal at the start of the year and just began my final month today. Somehow my account is now showing a 5GB allowance instead of 3GB. Anyone know why?
    Rahan's avatar
    Rahan
    It appears Lebara are migrating people from the 3GB package as they no longer sell it. 5GB package is the same price as 3GB which explains the freebie.

    I just got 2 different sims (5Gb+3Gb) for my two phones. Is it better mo create one account for both or split them using different emails? Some people reported issues with multiple sims therefore I'm not sure.
    mutley1's avatar
    mutley1
    i have put mine under different emails so that the accounts are kept separate. i find this is better as then you are clear which account is which, especially when you stop auto renew on one and want to keep the other for example. simple enough to put the sims into different email accounts, keep life simple, why make things complicated?

    update - actually i ordered the sims under different accounts, may be confusing their system if you had ordered both sims under one email and now want to separate them into different email addresses. (edited)

    Just moved from Lyca to Lebara (switch every 6 months) yes customer service at lyca is non existent - I prob won't go back due to it, but my signal with Lebara is really awful. I think I'll try the £5 02 deal next
    Soni210's avatar
    Soni210
    Does the Vodafone signal checker show that the location is going to be poor or despite it showing all bands are available, mvno is the issue?
  14. DoublePortingDad's avatar

    Just doing a double port dance Lebara-Three-Lebara. You need to call or chat with Three to get a port-in request which is much more time-consuming than Lebara or Lyca for example (online form).

    Also, the 2 numbers I am porting should be completed by yesterday 8/8/23, and today 9/8/23 still not done properly.
    One seems to be ported but I never received a text from three that is done.
    The second one is not ported at all (hopefully yet). Will see tomorrow.

    I believe the Three Pay As You Go app lets you port in numbers without needing to speak to them.

    Oh heck I was hoping for them to ditch the giftcard on the 12gb deal which was due to expire tonight and replace it with a discounted rate again but I see they've extended it instead as they have with these.

    Hi, the deal ends on the 1st of August, according to MSE's website. However, I think you are able to delay the activation for 30 days after you have bought the SIM. (edited)

    Are there any good data SIM only (without calls or texts) Deals out there? Could do with a bit more data for the car
    Jon_Red's avatar
    Jon_Red
    No, just buy a regular deal - it’s like calls and texts get thrown in for free. They offer unlimited deals for under £10 a month for a few months. (edited)

    Can I ask a question? With these deals coming along 30day rolling, do you have to set up direct debit or can you pay monthly by credit card or PayPal? Thanks.
    leemg3's avatar

    Pay monthly using credit/debit card. Stop auto renew in app when you want to end the payments

    This is the second consecutive sim I've received where the auto renewal is turned off, the last one I had to contact customer services to get it switched on at the start of the second month/first pay, there seems no way to turn on auto renewal on the app without purchasing another plan even though I clearly have a new 6 months plan.

    Does anybody know why this is occurring and how I switch on auto renewal without having to call customer services again?
    Rahan's avatar
    Rahan
    When you visit the Lebara website and log into your account, do you see auto renewal switched off?
  33. Chris_R23's avatar
    Chris_R23
    had a sim for about 3 months now and now its asking for a code they sent to number( on the website), no idea why..

    use the sim in a hotspot device
    Rahan's avatar
    Rahan
    That code is needed to link your SIM so you can view tariff information and manage it online. Only needed once.

    Is this the cheapest Lebara 3GB / 5GB deal for 6 months?

    I've just done Librespeed test.
    Lebara (3GB) £0.05
    Upload 25.2 Mbps
    Download 53.3 Mbps

    Lyca (3+1GB) £0.05
    Upload 5.25 Mbps
    Download 1.72 Mbps

    Same phone, same time, same location.
    Ping and jitter are better on Lebara too.
    It seems that Lebara is better for me in South East London. (edited)

    4g or 5g?..sometimes 5g can get bogged down(so I've seen)..on 4g I get 70-100mb on Lyca in east midlands

    Get about the same as you on lebara (edited)

    Would anyone know if this would work with an Apple 6 series watch. It's not the cellular version (e.f. no SIM slot in the watch), but I can speak/hear the watch during a call so long as I'm near my phone.
