Valentine’s Day in the UK comes with a lot of different emotions. The feeling of taking the last train home after a long day, while scrolling through old chats and voice notes. It also has butterflies in your stomach as you roll your suitcase across Heathrow and are blindingly excited to see the person waiting for you on the flip side. It is also about two people sharing the stars they look at, but not the same postcode or even the same country.
Between all this is the subtle yet important supporting character of your love story, the strongest third wheel, your phone. For couples away from each other, their phone is the biggest and most important ally. Especially during important days like Valentine’s Day.
No matter what your love story is and how long it has been, here are some things every couple away from each other needs on Valentine’s Day:
- Data plan that doesn’t shy away during 2/3 hours of video calls and movie night watch party
- Calling and text allowance that is good enough to make sure you are not confused about calling or using data when you miss them
- Having a plan that allows you to enjoy stress-free roaming, that won’t dent your budget, when traveling with your loved one. Worry about what to eat and not about how much roaming you will pay for uploading a picture.
While choosing a plan for Valentine’s Day, don’t just look at basic utility. Choose a plan that doesn’t make you go, “Let’s talk tomorrow, you are breaking up” but makes you go, “I want to tell you this properly, take a sit!”

When love comes to you, Lyca Mobile, still the best third wheel in town
The other kind of love story is the one where the one you love comes to you. Those are about shaking hands while scanning the boarding pass. The one you have been away from, the one who is always on screen with you, will be in front of you. No pixels, no ‘can you hear me’, no send me a photo once you are done getting ready.

In this version of the story, Lyca Mobile is your ally: National Plus is the perfect plan for the ones visiting to UK to meet their love.
This plan helps you to:
- Navigate from the airport to the station, to their front door.
- Look for restaurants for surprise date nights
- Check train and use travel apps to plan Valentine’s Day weekend last-minute trips
- Share every silly yet important moment you experience
- Call home to family and friends and keep in touch with them while away from home!
At the end of the day, no matter the plan you choose, it is about keeping in touch with the distance, and picking a phone plan is all about crossing the distance. Love and Valentine’s Day are not always about big gestures or bigger gifts. In a long-distance relationship, what matters the most is communication, even through a screen, keeping in touch, sharing, and the quality of conversation had, along with the length of it.
Valentine’s Day ultimately is about spending time with the one you love, be it on a screen or traveling hundreds or thousands of kilometers.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
