Hi, I have bought a Lebara SIM card to use in a GPS tracker (not a phone), how do I activate the SIM, would I need to take out the SIM in my mobile and put it in there to activate it and then put it in the tracker?

Thanks

  • Yes because you need to read the code that is sent to you as a text to activate the sim card on your account.

    When I joined lebara in January it said to put the sim in the phone and make a call or send a text to activate the plan. I did and it didn't. After i emailed them to say the text went through but then I couldn't send any more they eventually activated the plan. After that I put it in a 4g router and use it as my backup. So yes, I would advise you use it in a phone first.
