Lebara in EU
I have an iPhone 12pro max. My wife an iPhone11 pro max. Both phones worked in the EU last summer using O2 network. This year we travelled (camper van for 74 days) in the EU with Lebara sims blagged by MSE. In summary: both phones always had Edge (limited to email only - no internet). NL and Germany no probs. CZ both only Edge - nowhere any 3G or 4G. France (we visited three times) wife's phone ok, mine intermittent - after being there for three weeks I got welcome to France message and had 3G for a few days. Tried swapping sims but same problem. Italy and Spain - wife's ok in some areas mine not at all. Austria both ok It seems there is problem with iPhone 12 and 13 models with Vodafone (and other networks - much on internet re this). My research revealed that Lebara only ever used the Vodafone network. I installed eSims on my devices to access internet and they worked fine by using best available network. I contacted Apple who ran tests on my phone and found no problems - they claimed no knowledge of the many similar problems documented on internet. I contacted Lebara several times and they said they would fix it and ring back within the hour - I'm still waiting for their return calls.
