Lycamobile

I first entered this into Chatterbank but had no replies so now feel it may be more successful in Technology.

I have a friend who is using Lycamobile free sim PAYG, & has recommended them to me. I applied for a free sim card 1 week before Christmas & am still waiting for delivery. I emailed them & have had no reply, so I made another application for a free sim card two days ago & again am awaiting delivery. Does any A/Ber know anything about this mobile phone company & can make me aware if they are trustworthy or not

If you really want to join, Lycamobile SIM cards are available in a variety of retail outlets, such as 99p Stores (a.k.a. Family Bargains) and Morrisons.

However the reviews are generally lousy!

Thanks Chris, it would appear that they are bad, very bad. The main reason I was going to join them was because I got the impression ( from somewhere) that they did a customer to customer service for free & as they only charge £5.00 to open a payg instead of the usual £10.0. I also have a spare old mobile to use to use for chats to my friend. However it now seems clear

that it is not such a good idea.

Seems like you need to have a word with that "friend" Ron ;-)

Actually my ''friend'' never uses her extra mobile for outgoing calls, only to receive so having forked out £5 to open the account a few months ago she is still in credit, doesn't seem too bad a deal to me.
