My lyca sim card has expired recently. So its not functioning anymore. Is it possible to buy a new lyca sim card and transfer my old number?
Ken replied:
Hi Arefa,
Thanks for your comment. Sadly, it normally won’t be possible to do this if your old phone number has already been deactivated by Lycamobile. However, it might be worth giving them a call in case they’re able to restore it for you.

Ken replied:
Hi Aki,
Thanks for your comment. Unfortunately, it’s only possible to transfer your phone number to another SIM card based in the UK. Unfortunately, this means you won’t be able to transfer your phone number from Lycamobile UK to Lycamobile Ireland.

My network provider is lycamobile but suddenly Gt mobile has taken over which i don’t understand. I have a bundle on this number and i can not access the Internet. I have call the customer service several times to sort it out but the problem is still not solve. Almost three day now I don’t have data on my phone. What can I do? Thank
Jane
Ken replied:
Hi Jane,
Thanks for your comment. Lycamobile and GT Mobile are actually owned by the same company, but I’m not quite sure why you’ve suddenly changed from one brand to the other. It really does sound like an internal issue, which you’ll need to resolve directly with Lycamobile.
Sorry I couldn’t be of any more help,
Ken
