Report Overcharging Issue with Lebara 3GB MSE Exclusive Monthly Plan

I recently signed up to the above plan for £0.99. But as soon as the automatic renewal kicked in, I was charged £4.40 rather than the MSE deal price. It took me a couple of months to realise I was overcharged. I rang up and got a refund. 

Apparently, there is a technical glitch in their system. So do check your payment history and make sure you are not overcharged. Hope they sort it out soon. It would be such a pain having to ring up every month to get a refund.

  • Yep, same thing is happening to me. First month of overcharging I got on live chat and they refunded the difference. It's happened again and they've taken £4.40. This is getting tedious.

    Thanks for the heads up, joining them after backing out of the voucher deal, it seems that we have people complaining not getting the £40 voucher and others complaining they got charged £40 for no legitimate reason.

    The other thing Lebara do is claim they haven't been able to take the payment (which means you lose the discount) 
    They are getting almost as bad as Lyca.
