That won't tell us if the issue is Lebara or Vodaphone that Lebara uses!

Can't really help there as I don't have a Voda SIM to try.

Before blaming Lebara I'd want to see a comparison of their performance against a Vodaphone account from the same location.

I had the same issue on Voxi

Lebara is awful round here, but East Northamptonshire seems to be a O2 area, with Vodafone mast sharing.
What this looks like is band 20 4g only for Vodafone, and Band 40, Band 1, Band 20 4g plus n28 5G for O2.

So would it have been more accurate to say Vodaphone and any MVNOs that use Vodaphone are awful in your area?

I ordered one of these Lebara SIMs a few months ago (edit: via uSwitch) to test and speeds (and coverage) were similar to my Vodafone SIM (12 months contract) when running speed tests. If there was a difference, I didn't notice it.

I'll start a new thread on this as I'm getting a bit off topic, but wanted to add some more to what I've already written above. In addition to Lebara, I tested  Lyca & ID-Mobile SIMs in my 4G router. The speed differences were quite noticeable with Lyca at 28M, Three at 5m  and the odd Lebara behaviour  where it starts high and rapidly sinks to 1m.
