We can't do so much mystery so let's go to this super tip, the amazing 15GB Lyca Mobile chip full of advantages.
Lyca is a prepaid SIM card company, there is no bureaucracy or contract, which greatly helps those who wish to reside in Portugal and who have just arrived and still do not have all the necessary documentation, as well as for tourists.
With the purchase of the Lyca chip, just insert the chip into the mobile phone and in an instant you receive an SMS with your number and it is ready to be used. So here's the tip: when you disembark from the Plane, don't go straight to the Vodafone store, because there is a cheaper and quality option.
One of the advantages of this operator is roaming. But what is mobile/mobile phone roaming? Roaming allows you to send and receive data over mobile networks, even outside your carrier's coverage area. Although simple, this service still causes doubt among users, especially in relation to extra costs.
For you to understand better, let's use Brazil as an example. The Lisbon Tips chip is from the operator Lyca and the operation of roaming is relatively simple: each mobile/mobile phone line (chip) has a global identification code, called IMSI. When we use the mobile phone (smartphone) in another country, for example Brazil, the line will try to connect to a compatible network, defined through agreements between operators around the world.
From there, the network will use IMSI to identify the line and provide the necessary connectivity to transfer our data between the local operator and its origin operator. This provision of services generates costs that the local operator will charge the source operator. When we are in Brazil and utilise our chip, we pay the following prices:
