    Not just me then. I rang them and they said they tried it and worked their end?

    Did you ever have a lyca20 sim before. Are you using a mobile browser?

    The 10% won't work for me either though so that does not add up. Had you got a sim before?

    But you cannot sign up to a bundle unless you have a sim card and you have to order a sim card..

    True, but was on the phone for 15 minutes struggling to understand what she was saying and was losing the will to live so didnt bother trying to explain that.

    Actually you can purchase a sim and a bundle together that will give you the 20% just tried it there

    If you order a SIM with a bundle, how do you port and when does the 30 days start that you pay for when ordering? Lastly, is the 20% a once off or every month?

    You go to their website.

    http://www.lycamobile.ie/en/transfer-your-number-to-lycamobile-and-receive-€10-top-up!

    I ported a number and it was ported over within an hour or so.

    20% is only off the purchase of the bundle this month, unless the code still works in 30 days time.

    Only gripe I have with lyca is the inability to call customers on iD.

    Can't seem to find an answer to this anywhere!! I'm moving to Germany in a couple of weeks and want a prepaid service until the new iPhone is out in September - I'll get a contract over there at that stage.

    Can I use the minutes and texts to call home AND the countries on the list??

    The 30 days kicks in once you activate the sim.

    Do all MVNOs on the Three network ban/enforce/stop tethering?
    Tesco Mobile are still on the original O2 network as I understand it and allow tethering.

    Those are great data deals for those who don't use tethering.

    Not sure about all but iD don't stop tethering. They actually encourage it going on the advertising of their new deals.

    I used non-Irish Lyca sims and it seems they have general policy of blocking tethering, nothing to do with network they use here.

    Have been in Spain for the last 10days using the free roaming and a 1gb data bundle for 12. Speed is decent enough - getting about 4 to 5 Mb/s. Very impressed so far. Planning to port from TM when I get back.

    Did you have to change the APN for the data connection?

    set it to port for 13:30 today and it ported right on time. Maybe some of your details were incorrect. Might be best to follow up with them.
