Just got this Lycamobile SIM for my US trip, and here’s the real tea ☕️:

✅ Pros: Activation was stupid easy—popped it in my phone, followed the leaflet steps, and bam! Connected in 2 mins. The 40GB data (renews every 30 days) held up for my Google Maps addiction and Instagram spam. Hotspot worked flawlessly for my laptop too.

🌍 International perks: Called my fam in Spain and texted my German friend without extra fees. BUT heads up—calls MUST originate from the US. No roaming, so it’s useless abroad.

⚠️ Cons: Customer service is a joke. Got hung up on twice when I asked about porting my number. Also, the ‘unlimited’ international calls? Only to 100 countries (check their list—mine wasn’t there lol).

📱 Compatibility: The triple-cut SIM fit my iPhone 12 and my backup Android. No issues there.

💸 Value: For $49/60 days, it’s cheaper than my local carrier’s travel plan. Just don’t expect miracles—this is a basic ‘no-frills’ SIM.

Verdict: 7/10. Great for short trips if you ignore the shady marketing fluff.
