Hi,
I recently bought a Lebara SIM direct from Lebara and it refused to activate. I tried it in 3 phones including a phone that already worked on Lebara. They sent a replacement which also refused to activate. After unsuccessful web chat with Lebara I got thinking if this could be related to turn off of 3G in my area in Feb this year. Therefore, I switched the phone to 2G and it instantly activated. I then switch it to 4G/5G and all works fine. It just wouldn't activate in 4G mode.
Have I missed something or is this a genuine issue, albeit with a workaround?
