sorted byRemember though that during the porting process there may be time where neither SIM works for a while, and following the port completion some people may be unable to reach you by call or text until the following day if routing hasn't yet been updated for them.
If you're trying to maximise your communications ability, I keep suggesting people get one of the 1P SIM Cards from THM that comes with mins texts and data preloaded, allowing someone to keep calling and texting out using their own phone number for the few days that their number is on the temporary SIM and avoiding the need to carry a spare phone with a different number to achieve the same.

You could maybe even use it for most of the first month or until you've nearly used up the 4gb whichever comes first to prolong activating your new Lebara plan. (edited)
