now deceased husband's monthly sim only contract with Lebara? I
started to email Lebara on 29th July 2022 to request the cancellation

various emails, non of which have been helpful. The…

Selling an old phone
I recently bought a new mobile phone through Amazon. During the buying process I was offered a trade in for my old phone. I've always used a protective cover on my phone, so it was it virtually as new, however I've now received an e-mail from Amazon saying my trade in has been rejected due to 'deep scratches on body and…

MSE 3 PAYG workaround
We've been with 3 since 2018 on a 1 month notice plan with 50% friends and family discount. At the time, the 1 month option was good because we wanted to try the service/coverage and the 50% discount made it a reasonable cost for that flexibility. Over time the price has increased so it just under £11/m for 4GB. We've used…

Moto G5 Keeps Restarting Itself
This is a 2nd Generation G5 running Android 8.1. It has taken to restarting on its own sometimes when it is in use but also when it it not and I am alerted by the sounds it makes as it restarts. Otherwise it seems to work normally.Is there anything I can do about this or is the phone just telling me it wishes to die?

Lebara Incoming calls - works on one phone but not on another?!?!?
I am hoping someone clever and knowledgeable may be able to help, please. I just switched from SMARTY to Lebara monthly, changed nothing on my Galaxy S9 other than internet settings per Lebara information, and everything works except I cannot get incoming calls. But when I try the SIM on my son's OnePlus phone, incoming…

O2 Roaming
I was on o2 a couple of years ago and had the worst service from then I've had from any company, ever. Nevertheless, as so many of the other mobile companies have got rid of free roaming, I was tempted to look at o2 again as they're making a big deal of the fact that they're the only one of the big 4 who still provides…

Lebara sim problems
I tried putting a Lebara sim in an old mobile phone that had an expired PAYG Sim in it. However my new SIM card seemed to conflict with an old number in the phone. After trying with a replacement Sim card with no better result I asked to cancel the £5 plan that you need before you can activate the card. I had a poor…

Unlock EE smartphone?
I have read the article about unlocking an EE smartphone on this website and it says I can do this for free via the EE website. It appears I only need the IMEI number of the Android handset. Do I need an active EE pay-as-you-go sim and active EE account as well? I'm planning to buy a secondhand EE locked phone, but I only…

Affordable Mobiles - weren't able to supply the handset they agreed.
I wasn't made aware that if you order a refurbished mobile from AM they don't have one in stock - you have to wait for one to become available, and that might take a while. The delivery date they gave me was a guess; they missed it and weren't able to give me any idea when they could deliver. I cancelled the order.

USA roaming ... Surely this can't be the cheapest way?
Hi all, I'm travelling to the USA for about 10 days in October. I am currently on a Plusnet 30 day SIM only deal. From reading the guide on here, it looks like the cheapest way to do this will be to cancel my Plusnet, switch to 3 PAYG for a data bundle while I'm away, then take out a new SIM only deal when I'm back (3…

Mobile phone SIM only help please
Hi all, bought what I thought was a half decent 2nd hand Samsung Galaxy off eBay. She advertised the phone as being unlocked. When it arrived I put a Lebara SIM (cheap £5 a month no contract deal suits me) but phone wouldn't accept it. I called her and she said she was puzzled and assured me phone was unlocked, but she'd…

Switching to "new" Lebara deal while existing customer?
Does anyone have any experience of joining Lebara as a "new" customer, to take advantage of their deals for new customers, while already being an existing customer - and then switching your existing Lebara number over to the new Sim?

Levara SIM deal
Looks very inviting, but can I retain my existing number? I can't see anything indicating I can.

costing her plus it's not easy for her to top-up. I suggested she’d save a lot by getting a SIM only
contract. Problems. She wants to stay with O2 (Why I don't know) She only uses calls and texts. No data requirement. She is not on the…
