Help Center (FAQ)
Anyone can sign up for Lidl Connect. However, Lidl Connect is only available through the Lidl Plus app, which is available only to users aged 18 or over. If you are under 18, a Lidl Plus account holder can assign a Lidl Connect plan to you using the multi-line subscription feature.
You'll need a compatible device and the Lidl Plus app. If your device supports eSIM, you can get and activate your eSIM directly through the Lidl Plus app. Alternatively, you can purchase a physical SIM card from any Lidl store and then register and activate your plan in the Lidl Plus app.
You need an unlocked, compatible smartphone that supports modern mobile networks and can use either a physical SIM card or an eSIM activated through the Lidl Plus app. Please ensure your phone's software is updated to the latest available version. For example, the minimum supported operating system versions are iOS 16 for Apple and Android 9 (Pie) for Samsung.
Yes! Lidl Connect supports both Wi‑Fi calling and VoLTE on compatible phones. Wi‑Fi calling lets you make and receive calls over Wi‑Fi, while VoLTE enables high-quality voice calls over the mobile network. You may need to enable these features in your phone’s settings.
Absolutely! Just follow the simple sign-up steps in the app, and we'll handle the number transfer for you. If you're on a bill pay plan, please have a copy of your phone bill ready. You'll need your account number from the bill to complete the transfer. Please note that only Irish numbers can be moved to our Irish Lidl Connect offer. Alternatively you can select "Get a new number" instead!
You pay through Lidl Pay in the Lidl Plus app. You can use your credit or debit card for Lidl Pay. We will guide you through the setup steps during your Lidl Connect registration.
You can change from a physical SIM to an eSIM, or from an eSIM to a physical SIM, in the Lidl Plus app. Go to the Lidl Connect section of the app, navigate to your My Lidl Connect dashboard, select the phone number you wish to change SIM types for. In the main menu here select "Change my SIM" and follow the on-screen instructions. If you’re switching to a physical SIM and don’t already have one, you’ll need to purchase a SIM card in store. You’ll need to be connected to Wi‑Fi to complete either switch.
