Who Lebara suits

Lebara suits people who want a flexible SIM-only plan with international calls and EU roaming. Its plans include 5G, and Lebara lists extras such as 1000 UK minutes and texts, 500 international minutes and EU and India roaming. There is no credit check, and Lebara has no annual price rises, so bills stay simple to plan.

The main trade-off is contract length. Our table lists Lebara only on 30-day rolling plans, which you can leave with a month's notice or less. A 12 or 24-month plan is cheaper up front but ties you in, so if you want a fixed term, compare other brands.

Compare the five Lebara plans in the table below and pick the data allowance you use each month. For more options, check our cheapest SIM-only deals.

Network and coverage

Lebara SIM-only plans run on the Vodafone network, so they share Vodafone's coverage. Every UK SIM-only brand uses one of four networks: EE, O2, Vodafone or Three. Brands on the same network share its coverage, so the network matters more than the brand name.

Lebara plans include 5G, so you can get faster mobile data wherever Vodafone's 5G signal reaches.

Check your postcode before you switch. If Vodafone works well at your home and work, Lebara should work well too. You can compare other Vodafone-based deals on our Vodafone SIM-only page.

What it really costs

Lebara's SIM-only plans are 30-day rolling, so you pay month to month without a long contract. You can leave with a month's notice or less. A 12 or 24-month plan costs less up front, but it ties you in.

Lebara lists no annual price rises. Ofcom rules also ban percentage or inflation-linked rises in new contracts, so any rise must be stated in pounds and pence.

Extras listed by Lebara include 1000 UK minutes and texts, international minutes (100 or 500, depending on the plan), and EU and India roaming.

Our table ranks each plan by real cost, cheapest first, and shows when prices were last checked. Compare the real cost column before you choose. For more options, see the cheapest SIM-only deals.
