Lyca 5G SIM (EE) - 5GB for 89p / 10GB for £1.49 p/m for first 6 months | Unlimited Mins/texts, EU Roaming, 100 Intl. Mins, No Contract

I switched to Lyca a few months ago from Lebara and now I am back with Lebara (after the Lyca migration from O2 to EE). There where a couple of issues with this that I can cite, however, the biggest issue was the signal loss when moving from O2 to EE. So check the EE network coverage in your proposed areas. The other big issue for me was they don't currently support VoLTE. What does this mean? You can't access your data when on a phone call. The issue for me was I used Tomtom traffic to reroute me home from work, and I got stuck in a few jams when taking calls on my way home. Lebara supports VoLTE.

Too many people on here seem to spent too much time calling their mobile provider. Me? I spend my time calling friends using the cheap deals, like this one. Many thanks for sharing.

Been on it for a week, esim off the bat just worked. Great if you need a new number to be a ‘new’ customer for intro offers. Speed ok in and around London but nothing to write home about. Good for backup.

First six months favourable price deals are always preferable whatever network, in this case for Lyca lovers. (edited)

e-sim right from the checkout too, i'm using the 89p/mo one to test EE signal in my area for a while.

I’m trying to use topcashback to buy this plan but I can’t find it once it’s directed me to the Lyca website. Has anyone been able to do this? Thanks

After the way they handled their service migration from O2 to EE, you couldn't pay me to use their services now. Simply untrustworthy, and that's without any issues from others concerning customer support & porting out.
Cold.

I don't need this deal immediately but in a couple of months when my current contract expires...if I purchase it but don't activate, will I still be auto-paying £1.49 per month immedately? If not, I'm assuming you just get charged the initial £1.49? How long have you got to activate from purchase?

Terrible company to deal with. If you have any problems then you would have wished you had never signed up with them. The free offers are a trap for newbies. Please avoid.

My two cents on Lyca, besides the fact it took a month to actually get the SIM (maybe it was Evri's fault, let's give them the benefit of the doubt), I was left completely cut off from my connection with no explanation while on holiday in the EU.

I had been abroad for 2-3 days when they cut my roaming and started charging me (which, as you can imagine burnt through my balance in no time) with no prior warning. After my balance ended, I had no further connection at all.

I had not used even 300MB out of my 20GB plan when this happened, so I'm assuming it wasn't related to their "fair usage" policy, but who knows.

Even after a complaint, I still got no resolution (a month later) or info on what happened. The complaints department is appalling as they keep asking me for basic stuff they should be able to check on their own, like my phone number, balance or what country I was roaming from.

I moved back to Lebara with no regrets.

I thought it was 10GB for 89p and can’t remove my heat.

still working yesterday. Buy as a second SIM for data so no worries about losing your number and esim is very easy

I’ve been pretty happy with Lyca, only used CS once and she was very helpful. For the money I’m paying I can’t complain

I'm in Norfolk and out in the sticks, it can be patchy.
I have an O2 sim also in phone and its patchy the same.

This not the 100 mins International sim so change the title, its only for Europe US and china

Thanks

Ordered one, thanks OP. Heated!
