Beware Lebara
Just got a Lebara sim on mse recommendation, but sending pics taken on iphone via messages is blocked. This seems peculiar to Lebara. Guide needs to warn of this.

Tesco Mobile pay-as-you-go customer? Be prepared: it may push you to buy a bundle
Tesco Mobile is pushing its pay-as-you-go (PAYG) users to move to its new bundles. Failure to do so means paying for Tesco Mobile's standard PAYG rates, which it's hiked by up to 213%. If you're one of the 1.4 million users affected, it's worth looking at switching to a cheap monthly Sim instead – unless you just keep your…

Best data-only sim for 4G router
I've recently purchased a Cudy LT300 4G router from Amazon for backup purposes. Here's the problem - I acquired a sim card from Smarty and purchased the £20/month unlimited data-only plan but the speeds are so diabolical. Lucky to get more than 2Mbps down on a good day which makes it unusable for most things. I actually…

Lebara ring time
Very happy with Lebara on my Google Pixel phone but my wife's Samsung A34 rings for only 15 seconds before diverting to voicemail. I have referred this to customer service 3 times now and got the same instructions each time, ie dial **61*121*11*30# but it does not work. I've been promised a call back but heard nothing yet.…

SIM-only haggle
Hello I'm currently with Lebara, and I originally signed up to an MSE Blagged SIM only deal. It's price has crept up over the years so I want to get it down again can I just haggle with them directly? I can see better deals on MSE's website but those are for new customers. Any help would be appreciated

1pMobile website in a bit of a state.
Anyone able to login to their account on the 1pMobile website? It's doing something very strange for me. The main web page loads but when I click on "Login" it re-directs me back to my own IP address.

Am I correct in thinking Smarty Sim monthly only kicks in when I activate the sim.
Hi, Buying something from Amazon and wanting to avail of free delivery at £35 I bought a Smarty sim for 5p, now I can get free delivery from Amazon. From what I have read online the monthly charge only kicks in for the Smarty sim once I activate it, which hopefully is correct, unless somebody knows differently as I have…

1p mobile debiting my credit card without authorisation
Hi, Many years ago I signed up to 1pmobile pay as you go via money saving expert. I needed a cheap pay as you go for a second phone and it fitted the bill nicely. I registered my credit card with them but did not turn on auto top up. I used it for about 3 and a half years just fine, occasionally topping up a tenner as…

Lebara switching Sim only plan - Deals only available to new customers
With Lebara (not for much longer!) and needed more data pm so looked on a price comparison site - Lebara was the competitive and as I was already with them gave them a call. Operative was very apologetic but apparently they cannot give any deals to existing customers, and if you order a Sim from the price comparison site…

Who uses Lebara as their main provider?
I'm currently on BT mobile and the 'discounted' price (£5 off for being a broadband customer) is £5.70 per month, with only 1Gb data and no international calls. Moving to Lebara looks to be more economical, but what, if any, are the downsides? Who uses Lebara as their main provider and do you have any problems at all?

O2 - Enforcement & Termination Notice
Hi. This morning I've received an Enforcement & Termination Notice from O2 relating to the handset following me porting my O2 number to Lebara. I took out a contract 2nd November for 30day rolling SIM and an iPhone (daughter's birthday) and I was going to keep the O2 SIM. My contract/order was for the following: Airtime…

O2 pulling a fast one?🤔
As many on this forum recently, I'm going to be affected by the O2 price hike in April. I contacted them to discuss but the outcome was "contact us in Mid April to discuss as we can't do anything now due to a discount already applied to your account". My thinking is they have tried to stall me leaving & miss the…

MSE News: Ditched O2 after it hiked its price hike? Check you've not been wrongly charged
O2 has told some customers leaving the firm that they'll be charged £100s to cancel their contracts, while others have been asked to repay handset costs in full upfront. But this is WRONG. If you're affected by O2's price hike on a price hike, you were entitled to cancel your airtime contract penalty-free within 30 days of…

Spusu and EU roaming
I've recently activated my Spusu SIM and most things work as expected. One thing that's not clear is what they mean when they talk about EU roaming. I've now talked twice to their CS and they don't seem to know more about that I do. They gave conflicting information and they gave me prices that I can't find in their price…

Signal booster
The signal to inside my house is abysmal since 3G was switched off. The house is at the base of a 60m high ridge and the nearest mast is on top of the ridge, about a mile away. I have to walk into the garden about 20metres to get a decent signal, so the ridge does not impede the signal. Signal boosters are advisable to…

Refusing to cancel my contract within 14 days as they are saying is a business contract
I have had the displeasure of dealing with a company called CLEAR VISION COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED in Birmingham. They said they were 02 and my contract was up for renewal. The contract was up for renewal and they had all my details so I assumed it was genuinely 02. It wasn't this is a separate company who 02 sell your…

O2 - no price rise notification received?
My wife is on a O2 contract and she has not received any communication from O2 that her tariff will incur a price rise. Should she have been told by now? Has everyone else been notified?

LYCA mobile contract cancellation within cooling off period
Hello all. Newbie here and joined as Lyca Mobile is driving me nuts. I have a 24 month contract with them purchased online and am trying to cancel it within the 14 day window as reception is RUBBISH, I can barely hear anyone and if you need the phone in an emergency it would be useless. I emailed them on the address on…
