 subscription? Check eligibility and conditions

Cancelling your Lebara mobile service is simple, flexible, and contract-free. Here's what you need to know:

  • No Lock-In Contracts:
    Lebara operates purely prepaid and month-to-month. This means no early termination charges, you're free to leave anytime.

  • Prepaid Cancellation:
    To cancel, you simply stop recharging your prepaid plan. After your plan's expiry (typically 30 days), the service goes inactive. If you don't recharge for 120 days, your number and service automatically terminate.

  • Number Porting:
    Want to keep your number? Simply port (transfer) your active Lebara number to another provider. Porting automatically cancels your Lebara account, no further action required.

  • Account Ownership:
    Ensure you're the registered SIM owner. The account holder must initiate porting or cancellation requests.

  • No Refunds for Unused Credit:
    Unused prepaid balance, data, or plan days won't be refunded. Plan your cancellation carefully to avoid losing credit.

  • Disable Auto-Recharge:
    If you have auto-recharge set up, disable it before cancelling to prevent unintended charges.

  • SIM Card Deactivation:
    Once cancelled, your physical SIM or eSIM becomes inactive permanently. There's no requirement to return SIM cards.

With Lebara, you're in complete control, cancel whenever you're ready without hassle or hidden fees.

How long does a
Lebara
 cancellation take?

Lebara cancellations offer flexibility. Here's how timing works:

  • No Notice Required:
    Immediate cancellations are possible. Initiating cancellation today generally terminates your service the same day.

  • Porting Timeframes:
    Number ports typically complete within a few minutes to several hours during business hours (8am-8pm, weekdays). Ports initiated after hours or on weekends process the next business day.

  • Plan Expiry:
    To avoid losing unused prepaid credit or data, cancel or port out just before your plan’s renewal date.

  • Auto-Recharge:
    Disable auto-recharge at least 1 day before renewal to prevent unwanted charges.

  • Inactive Account Cancellation:
    If you simply stop recharging, Lebara automatically cancels your account after 120 days of inactivity.

Lebara's system gives you full control. Cancel exactly when you want, without worrying about lengthy notice periods.
