All Lyca Mobile customers across the UK gain immediate access to Wi-Fi calling on every plan, offering a significant boost for users with compatible devices. This upgrade enhances connectivity, particularly in areas with poor mobile signal.

What is Wi-Fi Calling?

Wi-Fi calling enables compatible smartphones to make calls over a Wi-Fi network instead of relying on 2G, 4G, or 5G cellular signals. Customers connect seamlessly to home or office Wi-Fi, ensuring reliable communication without dropped calls.

Key Benefits for Users

This feature proves especially valuable in homes with weak coverage, office buildings, underground transport, or other indoor spots. Calls over Wi-Fi often deliver superior quality compared to traditional 2G networks, helping users stay connected when it matters most.

“Wi-Fi Calling shines in areas where mobile coverage falters, such as offices, tube lines, or indoor spaces,” Lyca Mobile states. “It switches effortlessly to Wi-Fi for uninterrupted calls.”

Usage Details and Limitations

Wi-Fi calls count toward existing plan allowances but do not support international calls or roaming data. The service works only within the UK. Lyca Mobile, a mobile virtual network operator using EE’s infrastructure, serves over 1.7 million subscribers as of late 2022.

Competitive SIM-only plans include unlimited data options starting at £12.50 per month for the first three months.

“We prioritize reliable, seamless connectivity,” says Holly Flintoft, Head of Digital Sales UK. “Wi-Fi Calling across all plans improves everyday links at home, work, or signal-challenged spots.”

How to Enable Wi-Fi Calling

Users must activate the feature manually. Open the phone’s settings app, locate Wi-Fi calling, and toggle it on. It supports the latest Apple, Samsung, and other Android devices.
