MSE Lebara deal from years ago still trimming my Bills

Saw the current Lebara mobile MSE Blagged deal and thought that almost as good as the MSE one I got well over two years ago.

The current one is I think £1.xx per month for the first 3 months and then £6.90
Mine was £0.01 per month for the first six (yep) and then £7 a month.

Just checked my bill as I have always thought its awesome that Lebara have never had a price rise either and my monthly billing has dropped (a tiny bit) from £7 to £6.90 to match the current MSE blagged rate!

So Lebara have matched the new offers ongoing rate.

Everything esle is the same

15Gb data per month included, unlimited free calls and texts, and Lebara let you roam for free in Europe and a few other locations too,

For into they use Vodafone's network which, along with O2 (work phone) are the opnly networks with decent indoor coverage in my Lincolnshire village.

And while its all online signing up was easy, the sim arrived promptly and there is a nice little app to keep track of things too. 

Its a cracking deal and has continued to be for over two years now!

And the icing on the cake, its a rolling 30 day contract so if you want ot need to you can bin them and move to another contract without openalty or having to wait!!

Can thoroughly recomend them vs the appaling rip-off of the main network providers with their massive over inflation price hikes for contract customers every year!

I note as well that the regulators attempt to ban these (won't affect existing contract) inflation plus in contract annual price rises, isn't helping as not they have to quote how much in £ it will go up each year and the operators are being even greedier now generally going for a £5 a month rise each year (which at the moment is more than the traditional CPI + 4% on most contracts.

The regulator needs to cap in contract price rises to the rate of inflation!

    Pretty sure that was £6.90 not £7 because of the length of time you were committed to. 

    I personally had a terrible experience with lebara , but I guess your mileage varies.

    We have two Lebara MSE deals for some time now in this household. 

    Both were £5 a month and dropped to £4.90/mth by Lebara with no intervention from us.  5G and WiFi calling have been added since we started with them as well.

    No issues with them at all.  But nor have we had anything to contact them over.

    Ooh, I'm just pondering whether to switch from 02 to Lebara.
