Sim card dance

Scenario - you're on Lebara - and there's a cheaper simcard deal (often detailed on hotukdeals).

You can't get this better price if you're already on Lebara - the solution is to do the SIMCARD PORT DANCE.

This means - you need to port your number to a different provider, before porting back to Lebara - onto the sim with the cheaper tariff.

Here's the steps
  1. You purchase the new Lebara simcard at the better price (check HotUkDeals - Lebara search link).
  2. You also order a temporary simcard you port your existing number AWAY from Lebara.
    Often THREE have free sims that are already active.
    This is important - some other free simcards from other providers require a topup to activate the simcard - hence THREE is a good choice since it's already active.
  3. You then port your old Lebara number to THREE.
  4. Wait for the port to complete.
    24 hours after your port to THEE has completed - then request a THREE PAC code, 
  5. Finally, proceed with porting your number back to Lebara, onto the new cheaper simcard.

Expect the original eccentric central bolts to be seized, so you'll need to cut them off.

Use something like a "reciprocal saw" (have many spare blades), or use an angle grinder with 1mm metal cutting disc (get a 5 pack just incase: 

 

To press the bushes back in, I'd recommend the following DIY bush press.
