Earlier, you learned that Lebara has offline and online bundles. Between those two bundles, you also have SIM-only plans, which are their combo plans, and data-only plans. The following online monthly Lebara SIM-only deals are available, which have to be purchased on the Lebara website:.

The following online monthly Lebara data bundles are available. They do not come with any minutes or data for EU roaming, and have to be purchased on the Lebara website:. When you order a package online, you get the option to let it either auto-renew or not on the Lebara website. Offline packages will also auto-renew if you have enough credit. If you, like me, wish to buy your plan with the voucher, then follow the steps on how to redeem your Lebara voucher to activate your data plans , as they are the same steps.

You can also buy a plan online, which I will show you how to do so below. The SIM-only deals are also featured on the front page of the website. Select whether you want to get a new Lebara SIM card or already have one. The steps are quite similar, except for selecting a number and entering your personal details because they have already been saved on MyLebara.

As of , the roam like at home regulation became effective, meaning that operators in the European Union cannot charge roaming rates anymore or are required to give an EU roaming allowance. This applies to Denmark and Lycamobile as well. Instead, only a 10 GB EU roaming allowance is given for that plan. However, this only applies to plans purchased online. All offline plans do not come with a free EU roaming allowance, which is important to know if planning on roaming with your Lebara SIM card in other EU nations.

I can tell you it is not the most exciting place, but it is peaceful down there. Therefore, I was able to test the speed in rural Denmark and Copenhagen itself. Those are some fast and consistent speeds. Sure, they may not have been the fastest speeds out there in the world, but these speeds are still fast enough to browse the web without a lot of lag.

I am quite surprised that the speeds were the highest at Copenhagen Airport. It was so crowded there, so I expected the network to be overcrowded there.

Ah well, it is nice to be surprised at times. Even then, the speeds are good enough. I would recommend Lebara to those traveling to Denmark. You can even get it for free if ordered online. The plans offered by Lebara come with a generous data allowance, which is excellent. I know a few peers of mine who did not get a broadband connection and used their phone as a hotspot for their laptops.

With plans going to GB for a month with decent speeds, I would have considered not getting a broadband connection if I was not a gamer and cared about ping and latency a lot, ha. I am also happy to see that the speeds in rural Denmark are still decent instead of awful, like with many operators around the world.

I have had bad experiences with that line because it has bad coverage depending on the operator you have like 3 Denmark. So, I am quite positive about Lebara. Why do I rate them 4. For some reason, my connection with Lebara randomly dropped multiple times throughout the day. As in, I had to disable and re-enable mobile data to get a connection again. To use your phone abroad for roaming, you need to do an online transaction, such as ordering a new SIM-card, signing up for MyLebara or top-online.

As soon as you have made one of the above transactions, Lebara will activate the roaming service on your number within Minute for free. While they follow "roam like at home" rules, data volumes are capped for every package as indicated in the table above.

In the Danish regulator DNA has approved a request by Lebara to apply a roaming surcharge to its customers in order to cover any potential losses when its customers roam in the EU. They are using their own IP backbone which is infamous for its poor routing and effective blocking of tethering.

Their SIM card is given out for free online for free to be sent to a Danish postal address or offline at many outlets store locator or you can buy it for DKK 29 with DKK 10 credit at different gas stations and supermarkets. If you don't make any calls or SMS within a 3 month period your credit will be frozen. If your credit has been frozen you have one month in which to top up again, in which case your old credit will be reinstated. If you do not top up within this period your number will be frozen permanently and you will not be able to use your SIM.

These monthly data bundles for Denmark and limited EU roaming are available all valid for 30 days:. All packages includes tethering. They will auto-renew, if not stopped by calling customer service from Lycamobile or online. All excess data will be charged in the default rate or you can add one of these data bold-ons for the remainder of the running time of the base package no EU cap :.

Roam like at home has been finally implemented by Lycamobile. Note that the SIM card must be first activated in the home country in order to take advantage of roaming. After 3 has ceased all prepaid activities in , it's your only option for a prepaid SIM card on this network. In 3 Denmark has signed a roaming agreement with TDC, replacing a similar deal with Telia Denmark, which was inked back in December Their new prepaid line is called Oister Go!

To keep the SIM alive, you need to make a recharge once every year. The SIM card only works in Denmark; there is neither roaming possible nor can you make calls abroad with it.

SIM Cards are sold at various outlets that can be found here: Oister resellers. That's in many post offices, Elgiganten, ComputerCity etc. But you may have to look around a bit more than in Germany or other parts of Europe. They have 2 different types of packages:. Default data rate outside packages is DKK 0. These packs can be loaded on the data SIM:. Some users reported difficulties in finding it. Both come with a 7 days activation and max.
