mobile phone buy sim in Uk or once in Perth??
Hi. We fly out to Perth on Wednesday I am down to zilch credit on my unlocked O2 mobile. Now I have bought a Lebara sim here but think I may have gone about it the wrong way. Do I put the Lebara sim in here in the UK or wait until in Perth and buy a sim there?

Perth for sure. However, you might also want to charge up your uk phone a bit because you never know when you might need it if you go back for a holiday. I keep one charged all the time, only have to use it to send a message once every 3 months and it keeps the number and the charge doesnt run out. It's cheaper to do that than to venture onto international roaming charges with an Aus phone in UK

You'll need a lebara Australia Sim (if you bought it in the UK it will be a lebara UK one ) and last time I checked lebara didn't have roaming inplace.... so Lebara UK sim wouldn't work in OZ..
