In our review of Lyca Mobile, we said we liked that they offer a great overall mix of coverage via EE’s network and full access to their 5G. That’s on top of a few other handy benefits:

Most of Lyca Mobile’s plans are sold as flexible 1-month deals, letting you switch plans each month as you need. You can compare prices against other networks using our comparison tool here.

Lyca tend to offer some of the lowest cost plans of all providers and are one of the cheapest ways onto EE’s network.

Their plans include different numbers of inclusive international minutes (from 0 to unlimited). International calls outside of that are also cheap. And they still offer inclusive roaming in these EU destinations.

You don’t need to pass a credit check to join any Lyca Mobile SIM only deal as these are paid for up front. So Lyca are a great choice if you’ve been rejected for an EE contract but still want to use their network.

If you’re switching from another network to Lyca you can keep your old number by requesting a PAC from your current provider and sending it to Lyca at any time. Here’s their guide on how to do this.
