It wasn't obvious to me or my wife that On Top Up were not acting on behalf of Lebara and with their agreement.

How did you get in touch with them in the first place?

On my iPad if I do a google search for top up Lebara I get a sponsored ad for On Top Up at the top of the page before Lebara. It does clearly show as an ad and also that it is sponsored , it also clearly uses the name ontopup when talking about topping up for Lebara. 

I suspect this is another of those threads where a user decides to click on a paid for ad rather than go direct to the actual site. 

I get this on the first page as well once I click on the ontopup link

On Top Up is committed to bringing you the fastest and easiest method for topping up your Lebara mobile phone credit.

Do you have some sort of affiliation with On Top Up?  Your post seems very supportive of them and their practices.
It wasn't obvious to me or my wife that On Top Up were not acting on behalf of Lebara and with their agreement.  There are lots of agencies that act on behalf of other companies and this is what we thought at the time.
However thank you for the information that there is no 14 day cooling off on mobile top up. That's all I needed to know.

Does the bit I've highlighted in bold add anything to your post?

One job is more than enough for me & it is not in this area. 👌But I do hear this type of complaint on a regular basis. Sadly they are doing mothing wrong.
If you scroll down their front page it shows lots of mobile top up companies.

As you have found out. AD & Sponsored hits when searching are to be avoided...

This is how people end up paying for services they can get for free, such as taxing car, driving licences...
