Lyca vs EE SIMS compared? (1 Viewer)

[Vanman]

Hi - I recently got a cheap Lyca SIM (on EE) to tide me over with 5G until my 4G O2 contract expires in January. It seems very good, 5G data and reception etc. especially compared with O2.

I believe though that Lyca and other EE re-sellers don't get the 'full fat' EE some of the Bands are reserved for direct EE customers (at extra expense). So my question is, does anybody know what this means in real terms? For example if you are in the middle of a rally field or bike race meeting will the Lyca sim struggle while the EE one does not?

Thanks.

I have an RWG sim on ee , wife has a full blown ee contract.

I can see no difference in speeds at any time in the past 3 months travelling around from Scotland to west wales.
I have 200gb of data all usable in the eu, she has 120gb 50 useable in the eu. But her contract is twice the price of mine.
