Doesn’t work

It’s very simple: it doesn’t work. I have no service, no data.
It’s ridiculous.

The WORST company I’ve ever had to dealWith

I left a review a few months ago
- One star as no one was responding to my emails and couldn’t get through by none. Got response asking me to email customer services (giving me another email) which I did several times! STILL NO RESPONSE! 🤬.following this review I got an email asking me to respond with details so I sent the whole email trail with details of the order is placed etc.
The response I got was…. We apologize for any inconvenience and the delay in getting back to you.
We understand your request for a refund for the transaction that occurred in January 2025. However, we’re sorry to inform you that transactions are only visible in our system for up to 180 days. As this period has passed, we’re unfortunately unable to locate the transaction details to proceed with your refund request.

It’s LYCA MOBILE WHO HAVE CAUSED THE DELAY NOT ME- A complete joke!!

shit service/shit page/shit operator - coverage..

honest - im using u just because of necessity.. u are thieves in suits..
helpful - i'm not giving hand to thieves...
constructive -
1) invest to useful page, make quality check so there's no possibility to cheat customer by "credit" you actually cant use for plan renewal as 1st..
2) review/rewrite code for auto-renewal.. happened to me every time that I had enough credit for renewal my data plan.. failed.. and you eat my credit - pay per MB.. so only option is to go manual renew.. and gues what.. u cant use credit for it...

purchased prepaid esim and got charged wrongly

I purchased a prepaid esim plan called “only pay as you go connection” for €8. In the website clearly says “no contract or binding at no extra cost”. I found out after one month I was charged €10 on my card and after another month another €10. Tried to contact them and finally after many times I was told I was on an auto-renewal plan which I never signed up for.

When my phone failed on a weekend

When my phone failed on a weekend, I realized lycamobile has no weekend customer service; nor at night, either. I am switching to a more customer-service-oriented company.

No way to cancel eSIM data plan

I signed up for a mobile plan during my trip to Portugal in September. I’ve since been charged twice for renewals with no way to cancel it online (the site literally doesn’t allow me to do so) and I have unanswered emails to their support team over a month old.

Lyca Mobile refuses to cancel a Ireland line of a brazilian!

Lyca Mobile refuses to cancel a Ireland line of a brazilian, as he can't log in to the website to cancel (because the chip is in Brazil now), and continues to charge a monthly fee to his credit card! Beware!

The SIM card doesn't receive an access code to log in to the website, so it's NOT POSSIBLE to cancel the service.

I emailed them, and they acted like I didn't understand, as if I had purchased an e-SIM card, when in fact, I have a physical SIM card. It turns out I'm in Brazil, and I can't cancel the line through the website.

I'll be contesting purchases and filing disputes every month, which will generate more costs for Lyca Mobile.

I await your immediate response.

No hotspot with esim and bad coverage

Lycamobil offers a cheap only data e-sim. Don't fall for it!!!
It has disabled the hotspot..... You cannot work on your laptop or stream a movie.
Coverage is very bad to non-existing in the Marvão area....

Badly trained staff

Badly trained staff. Each one tells you a different story! All of them are rude and abrupt. I have received so many different conflicting bits of information.

Addendum - It's funny how they suddenly want to be your best friend (sort the situation) when you leave them a bad review...!
