FAQs:
What is a SIM-only deal?
A SIM-only deal is a SIM card with a bundle of allowances included depending on your needs. The bundle of allowances usually includes a combo of data, minutes, and texts for a given price plan. With Lebara SIM-only plans, you also get international minutes to over 50 countries included in your plan. It is a great alternative if you don’t want to use a contract phone or your contract has ended, and you want to continue using the same phone.
Do I have to be tied into a long contract?
No, unlike other networks, Lebara SIM-only deals do not tie you up in a 12, 18, or 24-month contract. Lebara SIM-only plans are 30-day rolling plans, meaning you can change or cancel anytime.
Do all plans include 5G?
All our plans now come with 5G. However, to use 5G, you will need a compatible 5G handset and be in an area with 5G coverage.

You don’t have to worry about out-of-bundle costs, as Lebara SIM-only plans have been capped at zero out-of-bundle usage, meaning you don’t get any bill shocks.

Do I get EU roaming with my SIM-only plan?
Yes, roaming in the EU is absolutely free on the Lebara network (up to 30GB).
Do I need to go through a credit check to get a SIM-only deal?
You may need to go through a credit check with other service providers, however, with Lebara SIM-only deals, you don’t need to go through any credit checks. Switching to a Lebara SIM-only plan is quick and simple.
What about non-EU roaming with my SIM-only plan?
You can Roam Like Home in India, meaning you can use your data allowance up to 30GB and UK minutes and texts to connect locally in the roaming country (India) or back to the UK at no extra cost. Incoming calls and texts are also free. Currently you cannot use your international minutes to make calls outside the roaming country (India). For roaming in the rest of the world (outside of the EU and India), you’ll need to buy an add-on or have pay-as-you-go credit on your account.
My credit history is bad. Can I still get a SIM-only deal with Lebara?
Yes, you can still get a Lebara SIM-only plan even if you have a bad credit history because, at Lebara, we believe everyone is entitled to a mobile plan irrespective of their credit history. Lebara aims to help people stay connected and that’s why we offer hassle-free, no-credit-check deals. You pay upfront and enjoy the bundle of allowances that come with your SIM-only monthly rolling plan, so no need to know your credit history.
What is the cheapest SIM-only plan?
Lebara offers a range of SIM-only plans ranging from £5 per month to £30 per month, with something to suit everybody’s needs and budget. All plans include EU and India roaming at no extra cost (up to 30GB and subject to Fair Use policies) and international minutes to over 50 countries. Lebara’s cheapest SIM-only plan is just £5 per month with no contract. For £5 per month, you will get 5GB 5G data, 1000 UK minutes, 1000 UK texts, and 100 international minutes to 52 countries.

What types of calls are included in my international minutes?
Standard mobile calls and landline calls are included in your international minutes monthly allowance.
How does a SIM-only deal work?
SIM-only deals are just a SIM card that comes loaded with a monthly allowance of minutes, texts, and data, depending on the bundle you have chosen. Lebara offers thirty-day rolling or twelve-month subscription SIM-only deals. They do not include a mobile handset, so may be ideal if you want to avoid an expensive handset contract or are considering buying a used or refurbished smartphone instead of a brand-new one.
When you sign up for a 30-day rolling SIM-only deal, you are only obliged to make the payment for the thirty days that you will be using the allowance. When this is up, you can choose to either renew the plan for another thirty days, switch to a different plan that is more suitable for your needs, or decide not to get another plan.
