Since 2013, I've been researching, reviewing, and writing about the wireless industry through BestMVNO with a focus on MVNOs.
In this guide, I will explain everything you need to know about Lycamobile before you subscribe. I'll review each of their phone plans with you, and go over any gotchas that they might have. I want you to learn the ins and outs of Lycamobile so that you can make an informed decision on if this is the best place for you to spend your hard-earned cash.

How Lycamobile Plans Work
Lycamobile is an MVNO that operates on T-Mobile’s network. Network speeds are equivalent to T-Mobile’s.
Lycamobile specializes in offering phone plans that are geared towards those that have a need for international calling and texting. All of the company’s phone plans include international calling and texting to a minimum of 60 countries.
Select phone plans also include free domestic talk and text roaming, likely on the . This an extremely rare feature to find on an MVNO phone plan.
Lycamobile does charge taxes on its plans. The company appears to charge a flat tax of 5% for all plan purchases. Several plans come with the option of a multi-month discount. Customers can choose to pay for 2 months and get a third months free, or 3 months with the 4 month free on the unlimited data plan.
Subscribers should be aware that LycaMobile automatically deactivates SIM cards if not used to make a call or send a text for more than 60 days. The SIM cards cannot be reactivated and the mobile number will be unavailable for any future use.
Supported Phones And BYOD Devices
The MVNO supports bring your own device, and most customers do. Any out-of-contract T-Mobile compatible device will work. Most AT&T devices are also compatible as long as they are out of contract, paid off in full, and not reported lost or stolen. Universally unlocked phones from manufacturers such as Motorola and Samsung are also compatible. Lycamobile does not directly sell phones to consumers but rather offers them through a third party.
Where To Buy Service Plans And SIM Cards
Service plans and SIM cards are available directly from Lycamobile, from independent dealers, and online at Amazon.
