    Does this sim work for wireless routers?

  • RichardF89 on 12/03/2023 - 11:16

    anyone received the sim card. I haven't received anything after the order confirmation email

    • Arsi on 14/03/2023 - 22:36

      I ordered on 6th March but haven't received yet

  • rxjb on 16/03/2023 - 19:31

    Im not sure if its the lebara APN or Telstra in my area but the 4g speeds are terrible. At home, 10mb. In the city 2mb. As its $1, i can live with it but not fast speeds at all. I am using a POCO x3

    • rxjb on 17/03/2023 - 08:23

      Edit. I ran a speed test this morning and speeds were through the roof. There must be network congestion near work and at home.

    Tried to activate my SIM. Failed to port in my number. Have contact them via web chat. I was told it would "2.5 business hours". It is 5:30 Friday now. Not sure if this mean I have to wait till Monday now.

    Their activating website is terrible.

    • mrshorty on 19/03/2023 - 17:34

      yeah i had similar issues - i activated and went through the porting process but helpdesk are pretty useless so i now have a new number instead of a ported number

      • Arsi on 25/03/2023 - 15:36

        Did your issue get resolved ?. I am experiencing the same issue (failed port-in) and have a new number instead of the ported number and they have tried to manually port again and asked me to wait "2.5 business hours".

        • mrshorty on 25/03/2023 - 21:25

          i was getting nowhere with their helpdesk who were saying I cant activate my sim and port in at the same time - which is weird since when I went through the activation process, there was a page to enter your port in details and go through the OTP process

          So Im no longer going to port my number in and using it for a different device

  • soldermask on 19/03/2023 - 09:18

    Anyone got slow internet?

    Got the sim and activated but the speed is 200kb/s max, nearly impossible for videos.

    • seug123 on 20/03/2023 - 00:01

      disgusting

    • Jeeyang on 20/03/2023 - 17:10

      I got 5.12 Mbps download. 3.61Mbps upload. Seems slow but not as slow as yours.

      • soldermask on 20/03/2023 - 21:51

        Mine is pretty stable.
        0.72Mbps download, 2.7Mbps upload.

  • Sharp on 21/03/2023 - 13:34

    Speeds are too slow, borderline bearable. For $3 month it's ok, but I don't know how they expect to retain customers with this level of service.

  • GPreet on 22/03/2023 - 00:29

    Can someone please confirm if still there’s no volte with lycamobile?

  • Arsi on 23/03/2023 - 11:43

    Are most people having issues with the porting ?. I will be porting the number tomorrow and hoping all goes well.

    • levqchi on 23/03/2023 - 21:06

      I was able to port in today. You have to activate your sim first (get a completely different number), then bring your number over using the website. Was quite painful but I did it. The speed is super slow though, I can only play 480p max on youtube, 720p and there will be bufferring. Speed test at the moment is below 1Mbit/s download, which is around 120KB. I haven't experienced speed this slow since 2009.

      • Arsi on 24/03/2023 - 12:38

        Thanks for your reply. Did the porting take long ?. Do we have to activate our plan via 116PIN number# after the number has been ported or when the intermediate number is active ?.

        It appears that speeds are an issue for other people as well.

        • levqchi on 24/03/2023 - 13:40
          +1

          The porting takes around 1 hour for me. I read on the FAQ of the website that the 116 pin can be activated before porting, but i didn't take any risk and waited until my number was ported. Check *132# to see your number. I took my sim card tray out once in a while to make sure it resets.

      • OrbDaggerZ on 31/03/2023 - 16:15

        That's dumb/backward.

    The worst experience I ever had with registering. Time spent, even if successfully (which is not the case so far), not worth it. Stay away from Lyca Mobyle.

  • [Deactivated] on 29/03/2023 - 04:36

    Their site wording states the 160GB plan has…

    "80GB + 80GB bonus (Activation bonus data Only for First month to New Customers)"

    Does that mean month 1 you get 160GB, but month 2 and 3 you only get 80GB?

    • levqchi on 31/03/2023 - 16:26
      +1

      I think so yes but at 1Mbps you won't even be able to use the whole 80GB, so don't you worry.

      • [Deactivated] on 31/03/2023 - 21:50

        Lol good point.

  • urzu on 29/03/2023 - 10:44

    Can anyone comment on how exactly the plan renews? I can only see options to add minimum $10 credit. Will it auto debit my card at $1 next month? Quite confusing, and as others have said, slow.

    • levqchi on 31/03/2023 - 16:24

      Was wondering the same.

    • [Deactivated] on 31/03/2023 - 22:18

      At the top the category says: "Mobile | Prepaid Mobile Plan" and the title contains: *$3… first 3 months… 4th month charged full price…"

      Prepaid means you pay before each month of service starts, postpaid after it has been used.

      So you must enter payment details upon signup, then they auto-debit at the start of each month, and again at the start of month 4 - unless you remove your payment details after month 3 is debited (or, a few days before month 4 will be charged). So if you want it to continue into month 4 you just leave your payment details intact.

      I haven't signed up but I assume the add credit is for if you run out of data or international call credit, so want to top those up a bit so you can use them instead of waiting for the next month to start/renew.

  • OrbDaggerZ on 31/03/2023 - 16:53

    The post date is "Offer ends 31st" but shows as Offer Ends 30th April on their site, did they extend the promo?

  • Hacheoy on 06/04/2023 - 12:43

    Received my sim today.

    Trying to activate it with a driver licence as ID, but the 'card number' field is required. I don't have a card number on my licence as I wasn't affected by the Optus breach.

    Shite!!!
    Cant send or receive MMS.
    Struggled for port in.
    Says 4g but runs like 3g.

    NOT RECOMMENDED

  • Feeblely on 26/04/2023 - 00:55

    I can't send any mms messages on my samsung galaxy s21 phone?

    • djoz on 27/04/2023 - 11:39

      Looks like any people reporting that MMS is not supported.
      Btw, were you able to port an existing number successfully?

      • Feeblely on 28/04/2023 - 00:19

        Somewhat. Porting was done successfully in the end, however had to go through support as it would not allow me to do it automatically. Honestly, Lyca network is appalling without the discount.

        If you have another friend/family, get them to call you and don't pick up. For some reason, if you miss the call, it beeps and tells the other person "Welcome to lyca mobile". This is what everyone who calls you will hear…….

  • Shikha966 on 28/04/2023 - 04:27

    My first month has finished. I thought it's auto recharge. But now it's saying you don't have credit. How do I recharge? I don't see any $1 recharge now.

    • djoz on 28/04/2023 - 11:25

      Were you able to get around this? What's the solution?

    • WatchNerd on 28/04/2023 - 11:27

      Similar to me but mine never worked from the start, just got a recorded message saying I don't have enough credit, WTF!!!

      Lucky I didn't port my main number. Emailed them to cancel my account yesterday but no reply yet.

  • laoya112 on 28/04/2023 - 13:54

    I think I am the only guy who had a real problem here.

    I ported in my main number and after the port, I cannot receive a call or sms. It is weird that I can make a call and send a sms. but I just could not receive anything. I cannot receive OTP either from the bank or others.

    I have reached out the online chat twice and their support line once but after 48 hours, the problem is still existing.

    Even I want to port out the number, I cannot receive the OTP requested by other carriers. Please share any carriers that they do not need the OTP to verity the number. TIA. I just want to leave this telco as soon as possible.

  • OrbDaggerZ on 30/04/2023 - 16:17

    Was about to go with the XS plan and noticed it states "Offer ends on 31st May 2023" (https://www.lycamobile.com.au/checkout), so maybe they have extended the promo?

    Or it could be in regards to the 20GB bonus data (for this plan), not too sure.
