    For those travelling to EU. Smarty joins mostly 3G in EU, which is slow by today’s standards. Lebara is 4G only, which is usually ok, but transfers all date through the UK. Not sure why. Lyca is 5G everywhere, but as mentioned above, you have no wifi calling and I am struggling to make my iMessage work with it.

  • Sal said:

    No wifi calling is a major drawback with Lyca. I know a press release says it’s coming in at some point but until it does I won’t be using it (I tried & couldn’t work with it).
    RWG Mobile have been stringing out wifi is in coming for a few years & still nothing. Another EE network user.
