Vodafone Network Abroad
Lebara runs on Vodafone — one of Europe's biggest networks, so signal is rarely a problem across the continent.

Prepaid means you can't run up a roaming bill — outside your allowance, it simply stops unless you add credit.

5G Where Available
5G on Vodafone's network in the UK and in supported roaming destinations at no extra cost.
Lebara vs Giffgaff for Roaming
For pure EU travel, Giffgaff (O2 network) also includes free EU roaming — so both work for a Europe trip. Where Lebara pulls ahead is calling abroad from the UK: if you regularly phone family in India, Pakistan, Nigeria or elsewhere, Lebara's included international minutes are hard to beat.
