Restoring Lyca Mobile Service on iPhone

Toggle Airplane Mode
Turn Airplane Mode on, wait 15 seconds, then turn it off. This forces your iPhone to drop and re-register on the Lyca Mobile network from scratch.
Reseat your SIM card
Power off your iPhone. Remove the SIM tray, take the SIM out, check the gold contacts for dirt or damage, then reinsert firmly. Power on and wait 2 minutes.
Restart your iPhone
A full restart clears radio firmware errors that can cause No Service. Hold power and tap Restart. Allow 2 minutes for Lyca Mobile network registration to complete.
Check for Lyca Mobile outages
Visit Lyca Mobile's coverage checker or network status page to confirm there is no outage at your location. During outages, No Service affects whole areas simultaneously.
Search for Lyca Mobile network manually
Go to Settings → Mobile Network → Network Operators → Search manually. Select Lyca Mobile from the list. This forces re-registration when auto-search fails.
Check account status
An unpaid bill, spending cap, or suspended account shows as No Service on your iPhone. Call 322 (free from Lyca) from another phone or check the Lyca Mobile app to confirm account status.
Reset network settings
As a final step before requesting a SIM replacement, go to Settings → General → Transfer or Reset iPhone → Reset → Reset Network Settings. After reset, wait 5 minutes for Lyca Mobile to re-register your device on the network.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my iPhone say No Service on Lyca Mobile?

No Service means your iPhone cannot register on any Lyca Mobile network cell. Common causes are an improperly seated SIM, a failed SIM card, an account suspension, or being outside Lyca Mobile coverage. Toggle Airplane Mode and reseat the SIM as first steps.

How do I check Lyca Mobile network coverage?

Visit Lyca Mobile's website and use the coverage checker — enter your postcode to see whether Lyca Mobile 4G or 5G coverage exists at your location. If Lyca Mobile shows no coverage in your area, No Service is expected.

Can a software update cause No Service on Lyca Mobile?

Yes — some firmware updates reset network preferences, remove APN profiles, or change preferred network mode settings. After any update, go to your network settings and verify Lyca Mobile is selected as the preferred network with the correct APN.
