Lebara - new plan question
OK, so I have a current MSE Lebara plan which is about to expire. If I click "Change Plan" in the Lebara portal their equivalent is £10 / month, but I noticed that there's a new MSE Lebara plan for £1 / month. So I bought one, used the same email etc, but I can't see how to change to it in the portal. Is it even possible ?…

O2 Price Increase April 2026
Hi all, I'm 11 months into a 24m sim only contract with o2.
