Vervelend dat je geen bereik hebt. Check eerst even of je telefoon niet op vliegtuigstand staat. In deze modus ben je namelijk niet verbonden met een mobiel netwerk.
Staat vliegtuigstand uit en heb je nog geen bereik? Dat kan ook liggen aan slechte dekking, bijvoorbeeld in de natuur of in een goed geïsoleerd pand. Kijk bijvoorbeeld even of je buiten of bij een raam wel verbinding hebt met het netwerk.
Het kan ook liggen aan je toestel. Om dit uit te sluiten is het slim om je simkaartje in een ander toestel te proberen.
Ben je in het buitenland? Check met onze roaming tool of je met het juiste netwerk bent verbonden.
Nog steeds problemen? Neem dan contact met ons op.
Calls to 0800 numbers are always free of charge.
Calls to 085X, 088X, 14XXX and 116X numbers are charged at the usual rate for your prepaid credit or bundle. That means it does not cost extra to call these numbers.
Do you want to call a 0900*, 0906*, 0909*, 084*, 087* or similar service number? If so, If so, then additional charges may apply. You will always be notified of the charges at the start of a call.
With a SIM Only subscription, you’ll pay these charges through an outside-of-bundle credit that is capped at €10. If you still have any remaining Lebara One credit, this will be used first for these additional charges. The call will cut off as soon as you reach the out-of-bundle credit limit or use up your credit.
Are you using Prepaid? If so, If so, then your remaining Lebara One or 10 = 20 credit will be used for these additional charges. The call will cut off as soon as you use up your credit.
Vervelend dat je niet kan worden gebeld. Hopelijk staat hier de oorzaak tussen:
- Staat je telefoon op de juiste stand? Als je toestel op vliegtuigstand of ‘niet storen’ staat, kan je niet worden gebeld.
- Ben je in het buitenland? Check dan met onze roaming tool of je wel op het juiste netwerk zit.
- Ligt het aan je toestel? Kom hierachter door het met je simkaart in een ander toestel te proberen.
- Ligt het aan de dekking? Soms zorgt slechte dekking of een goed geïsoleerd huis ervoor dat je op bepaalde plekken niet kan bellen.
Lukt het nog steeds niet? Neem dan contact met ons op. Je kunt ons bellen of je vraag stellen via de live chat, Twitter of Facebook.

Sometimes, your device itself may be the cause of the issue. To rule this out, can you try using your SIM in a different device and see if it connects?

If you do not want to switch automatically to 4G, switch off the mobile data connection on your phone when using WiFi.

Outgoing calls & expanding can be used in combination with each other. So a participant can always call in at a later stage or be added to the conversation. A maximum of five participants applies, including the initiator. Note: it is not possible to organize a group conversation while you’re abroad.
With our Call Waiting service you can answer an incoming call while you’re already in the middle of another phone conversation.

To use this feature, you must connect a payment method with your account. To verify your payment method, we will charge a small amount to it. This amount will be reimbursed within three days.
To use this service, you must have topped up your Prepaid credit (One or 10=20) at least once before. You can turn off automatic top-up any time.

Don’t worry though: on your next bill, we’ll calculate the days in which your plan was not yet activated and subtract them from the second invoice amount.

Lebara SIM Only is a subscription that includes credit for calling, texting and data, along with a SIM and a phone number. Unlike many other plans, SIM Only does not include a phone. Other plans may require for you to pay off a phone in instalments. Do you already have your own device or are you planning to buy one? If so, then SIM Only is the perfect choice for you.
At Lebara, the only plan (or subscription) we offer is SIM Only. The bundles are extra add-ons that you can choose for your SIM Only plan. These let you set the limits for the amount of calling, texting and data included in your plan. If you use Lebara Prepaid, the bundle is the amount of calling, texting and data credit included in the Prepaid product you buy.
