Lebara STAC Code

If you are leaving Lebara and do not want to keep your current phone number, you can request a STAC code instead. Text STAC to 75075 from your Lebara handset to receive your Service Termination Authorisation Code via SMS. The STAC code is valid for 30 days and allows you to terminate your Lebara service without transferring your number. This is a suitable option if you have already obtained a new number from another provider or do not need to retain your current one. Provide the STAC code to your new network or use it to finalise the closure of your Lebara account.

Lebara PAC Code FAQ

Can I keep my number when switching from Lebara to another network?
Yes, absolutely. Text PAC to 65075 from your Lebara phone to receive your PAC code. Give this code to your new network provider during sign-up, and your number will transfer within one working day. Your Lebara service will be cancelled automatically once the port completes.
Are there early termination fees with Lebara?
Lebara primarily offers 30-day rolling plans, so there are typically no early termination fees. You can leave at any time by requesting a PAC or STAC code. If you have a remaining balance on a bundle, it will be forfeited once your account closes, so try to time your switch appropriately.
Will my international calling minutes still work during the PAC transfer?
Your Lebara service, including international calling minutes, will continue to work until the number transfer to your new network is complete. Once the PAC code is processed and your number moves, your Lebara SIM will stop working and any remaining allowance will expire.
How long does a number transfer from Lebara take?
A number transfer from Lebara typically takes one working day after your new network submits the PAC code for processing. During the switchover, there may be a brief period of up to a few hours where you cannot make or receive calls. You will receive a confirmation message when the transfer is complete.
