Cheap calls to Europe

How to call Europe from a UK mobile

It can be difficult to know how to call Europe from UK phones without needing to pay huge prices. European call rates can be expensive, and mobile calls to Europe even pricier. Lyca Mobile removes the stress and expense. We make it easy for you to enjoy cheap calls to Europe with our Europe SIM card offers and cheap Pay As You Go international rates. Our Europe calling SIM cards can come with a range of great plans which let you use your phone for UK calls without needing multiple SIMs or extra-cost plans.

You don’t need to use your Lyca Mobile SIM only for international calls. Our international calling plans come with the fantastic bonus of free calls between Lyca Mobile UK SIMs. That means if you and your family all use Lyca Mobile, you can call each other for free. Plus, with our referral program, you can get credit when you refer a friend, so everyone wins. If you don’t call Europe on a regular basis, then you can still save, with UK plans that give you unlimited calls and texts, plus international minutes and even European roaming for a low price.

European calling SIMs

For the very best cheap calls to Europe, choose one of our international calling plans. There’s no need to sign anything or set up a Direct Debit. With Lycamobile you pay one small price for a 30-day plan packed full of incredible value calls and texts to use at home and abroad. Our low-cost Lyca Globe bundle gives you a huge 3,000 international minutes to countries across Europe and beyond, alongside unlimited Lyca-to-Lyca calls in the UK.

Love to talk? Then choose the All In One Plus 20 plan. You’ll get a mammoth 10GB of data, plus unlimited calls and texts within the UK and EU roaming. But the highlight of this plan is the unlimited international minutes letting you make cheap calls to Europe, America and Asia with over 40 countries covered.

The best thing about Lyca Mobile is the flexibility. When your 30-day plan ends, you don’t need to get a new SIM or buy the same plan again. You can decide to choose a different plan or just top up with Pay As You Go credit, which you can easily buy online or by dialling 321 and adding between £5 and £100.

Can I roam in Europe?

EU roaming is available on all of our plans, allowing you to use your phone in Europe just like you use it at home. So if you want to use your international minutes while travelling in Spain, you can do so, and it won’t cost you any more than in the UK. You can also use your mobile data while roaming abroad without a data cap in EU/EEA countries.

Can I use my phone abroad?

Your Lyca Mobile plan will work outside the UK if it comes with EU roaming. Your plan will clearly say if it includes EU roaming or not. This means you can make cheap calls to Europe, and back home by using your phone abroad while roaming in the EU.

Can I transfer airtime to someone in another country?
