Lycamobile

Lycamobile Netherlands, operating under Lycamobile Netherlands Limited, stands as a prominent Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) within the Netherlands. Utilizing the Mobile Country Code (MCC) 204, which identifies the Netherlands, and the Mobile Network Code (MNC) 09, Lycamobile offers affordable mobile services primarily targeting international communities and those frequently making international calls. As an MVNO, Lycamobile doesn't own its own network infrastructure but instead leases bandwidth from established Dutch mobile operators, allowing them to offer competitive pricing and specialized plans. This is a common model in the Netherlands, with other MVNOs focusing on specific niche markets. Lycamobile's focus on international calling has made it a favoured choice for immigrants and travellers in the Netherlands. Comparing it to larger Dutch operators like KPN, Vodafone Netherlands, and T-Mobile Netherlands - which possess their own extensive network infrastructure, Lycamobile differentiates itself through tailored packages for international communication. While these larger providers offer broader service portfolios, Lycamobile excels in offering cost-effective solutions for connecting people internationally. The Netherlands, situated in the heart of Europe, has a well-developed telecommunications infrastructure supporting both native networks, and successful MVNOs.
