Lebara sim deal 3g only ?

Recently used the MSE blagged 12gb sim only Lebara deal, but I only seem able to get 3g rather then up to 5g
I have a iphone 11, so it worked fine on 5g before any advice ?
I've checked all the settings and they look correct.

    Strange?  I had a new Lebara SIM in Greece a few weeks back. 4G and 5G were working out of the box.
