Lyca Mobile AT Reviews 

The support I have received from the Abderrahim Khadra is prompt and which contains detailed explanation, which really assisted me to purchase and activate the plan. Employees like him/her is a great asset to any organization and moreover it shows an organization's attitude towards the customers as well!

Even though the support I received over E-mail was great, I was unable to reach to a CS executive over mobile even after holding the call over 15-30 mins. That was little disappointing!

Since it is still not working properly, I sent a screen recorder regarding what exactly is going on. I am going to send it to the email you recommended. But hopefully, they will answer. Thank you.

Hi,
I have been using my Lycamobile sim card for almost 2 years now didn't have so much problems. But here I am again going to ask about my Lycamobile sim card. I just went abroad last week and I used my roaming data. Everything is perfect but when I was back in Austria I didn't have the signal for 2 days already. I tried to restart my phone, go to the Lycamobile application to set it up in Austria then restarted again, Changed my phone, manually changed my network. Is there anyone who can help me? Thanks in advance!!

I want ask a question whether I can convert to Lycamobile from Magenta
same number.

Oh, where do I begin... I don't speak German so I had a very hard time setting my mobile bundle up. I decided to seek help via the LiveChat and Oulouli has been the most helpful customer service representative! We resolved all issues I had. Thank you!

Has provied clear information to solve the issue.

I live in Austria and been with Lycamobile for a while now. Internet speed is great during the day, but in the evening it's terribly slow. While at home I always use Wi-Fi but whenever I'm out or away it's a nightmare. For example, daytime download speed is 60 to 100 mbs but after 5 pm I'm lucky if I have 3 mbs, upload also very weak. I've tried different phones, same results. Don't know why the network works like that. Like many others, eventually I will end up porting my number.
Kind regards,
Julian

Always helpful staff , and quickly resolve the issue . Very convinient to talk. Vasuki were very helpful and she resolve my problem quickly.

I got a problem with bundle activation which I did not know how to solve. The waiting time for online help is very short, you can get somebody to help you in a couple of minutes. I got an extremely helpful assistant Vasuki. I was guided through the process of what has to be done, my information was checked right away. So the problem was solved in a few minutes thanks to Vasuki. Great help, friendly manners.. an assistant that you need when having a problem! Keep up the good job! :)

I thought there will be only a bot.

Supporter Vasuki helped me real quick to solve my issue. Great support at Lycamobile.

My request wasn’t resolved. I’ve sent over 15 e-mails since 22nd July and haven’t received any explications since over a month. Terrible service and no solution in place.
Despite your quick response on Trustpilot (below), no transfer has ever been done on my account from Lycamobile. I have just checked it.
Still awaiting for solution....

Hi,

This is Suresh Alasatri. I just started using Lycamobile SIM in Austria. I called one agent Mr. Ahmed in Vienna to acivate my new Lycamobile SIM. The Sevice is good and the way he reacts very well with customer. I just followed his inputs and i activated my SIM. It's good service.

thank you

I spoke with a agent called Ahmad, who actually gave some good feedback and helped me with some issues. Nice service.

This website pretends selling sim cards for Austria, but the card I purchased proved useless so that I consider this website a scam that intentionally deceives people.
I ordered a “free” sim with 4.90€ 1-month prepaid package, paying with credit card on this website.
The website said “transaction failed” although my card was charged (=VERY BAD no. 1)
I wrote to their customer service via email but no one ever replied (=VERY BAD no. 2)
I called their telephone hotline but it disconnects right away (=VERY BAD no. 3)
I used their online live chat where the guy named Hassan only answered that he could not do anything and told me to write an email, and then disconnected my chat.
I wrote to their email address for complaints that I have found here in other review, but no reply.
Then, in about 1 week the card arrived per post (suddenly!)
When I inserted the card into my phone, I found that the balance is ZERO, not 4.90. (=VERY BAD no. 4)
The voice menu suggested I buy another 5€ of credit to be able to use the card.
The letter that came with the card also said I had to activate it ("register") in a store or online.
I went to their “store locator”. This locator is FAKE: no house numbers of stores are given, but only street names, and the “stores” are shown randomly on the city map. I found some of the stores mentioned and visited them. They told me they don´t sell lycamobile cards and don´t activate them. (=VERY BAD no. 4)
Then I went to their online activation.
There are three options: via an Austrian bank, via an Austrian official electronic signature (obviously as a foreigner I cannot have any of the two, otherwise I wouldn´t need to buy their card in the first place!), or via their ID photographing system. This latter “system” CANNOT focus on the ID card, always saying “image not sharp enough” even though my phone camera is working perfectly. Therefore, it never accepts the photo and never proceeds with the sim card activation. (=VERY BAD no. 5)

Summary:
This site shows fake “transaction failed” messages while charging the credit card.
It never responds to customer requests per email or phone or live chat.
This site carries a fake “store locator” with inexistent stores or stores that do not sell its products.
The sim card sent comes without credit even if paid for.
The activation of the sim card for a foreigner without an Austrian bank account or Austrian electronic signature is impossible (or maybe even with those, but I could not test it).
This site is thus useless and a scam.

P.S. Update on their reply shown under my review:
Of course I am not stupid and I introduced the PIN. But this was not sufficient to make the sim card work. It still did not let me make or receive a call or an sms! The letter that came with it said that I needed to "register" it in order to complete my activation. This is what I am referring to in my review above.
So their reply below is just an attempt to distract attention from the problems. All of the issues I list above are true as per my experience and none of them has been addressed in the reply.
This company made me lose time and money, I don´t need their services anymore because I already purchased another sim card (not theirs), but I want to save other people from having the same problems that I had.

Not so good signal,not good internet connection when you go out of Austria,it doesn't give you the ability to call any land line inside Austria (ex. public services numbers as AMS,Oegk etc).I'm using the global plus program and i hate the fact that every month in order to renew my bundle i have to right down all my data again and again the moment when my number is registered officially there.I also find a great joke that when i asked why this happens they told me that i have to activate the automatic renew to a number for which i already activated by registering it with my ID. Hallo people there are folks out there who really dislike to pay automatically something and like to do it manually. Even if the guys on the service line try to do their best this company has a bunch of dumb restrictions which doesn't let the chance to the employee, to serve the client right.I have 4 numbers in this company and as soon as possible i will take them to another company. I'm totally unhappy.
