Let’s Talk Telemach Tariffs: Are They Really Worth It in 2025?

Let’s be real—mobile tariffs aren’t the sexiest topic out there. But if you travel a lot, live in the Balkans, or just like getting good value without digging through endless fine print, then Telemach deserves your attention. Especially now in 2025, with all the shifting telecom strategies, price hikes from other players, and the rise of eSIMs, people are asking: “Is Telemach still a good deal?” Short answer? For many people—yes.

Long answer? Let’s dive in.

First, who even is Telemach?

If you’re not from the region, Telemach might not ring a bell right away—but it’s one of the most dynamic telecom brands in Southeast Europe. Telemach is currently active in Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Croatia (where it’s launched EON Mobile as a fresh digital-first offering). It’s part of the United Group, which also owns media and telecom giants like Nova TV, N1, and NetTV Plus, giving it a pretty powerful regional presence.

Worth noting: Telemach is no longer present in Serbia—that market is now covered by SBB, which operates separately under the same group umbrella. As for Montenegro, Telemach stepped back in recent years and no longer operates mobile services there.

What sets Telemach apart is how it positions itself: bold, flexible, and focused on delivering a lot of value without locking you into some 24-month nightmare contract. Think: generous data, affordable EU roaming, and combo offers that are actually useful.


So, what’s on offer with Telemach tariffs in 2025?

Telemach is still doing what it does best: offering big-data mobile plans, bundle deals, and EU roaming that doesn’t kill your budget. Whether you’re based in Ljubljana, Sarajevo, or Zagreb—or you’re a frequent traveler between them—there’s probably a plan with your name on it.

Let’s break it down by country.

1. The “NAJ” Plans in Slovenia

Below is a summary table of the main Telemach Slovenia mobile packages (“VEČ” group), including monthly prices depending on the number of family members subscribed together. These are the most current tariffs as of May 2025, based on the official Telemach site and its published terms.

Package 1 Member 2 Members 3 Members 4 Members Key Features
VEČ 13.89 € 12.69 € 11.89 € 9.89 € Up to 150/50 Mbps, data speed reduced to 64 kbps after included data is used
ŠE VEČ 19.89 € 18.70 € 17.40 € 15.90 € Up to 350/50 Mbps, unlimited daily use after 10 GB with SMS activation, 5G supported
NAJVEČ 25.90 € 23.70 € 22.40 € 20.90 € Up to 1 Gbps, unlimited daily use after 10 GB with SMS activation, 5G supported

Notes and Additional Information:

  • Data Usage: For ŠE VEČ and NAJVEČ, after using 10 GB in a day, you can continue unlimited high-speed use by sending an SMS with the keyword “NADALJUJ” to 7070. There is no limit to the number of such SMS messages per day.
  • Speed Limits: VEČ: up to 150/50 Mbps; ŠE VEČ: up to 350/50 Mbps; NAJVEČ: up to 1 Gbps. After the included data is used in VEČ, speed is reduced to 64 kbps.
  • 5G Access: Available with compatible device and SIM in all VEČ, ŠE VEČ, and NAJVEČ packages.
  • Roaming: Included services are available in the EU/EEA according to Telemach’s fair use policy. Some data is also available for use in the USA with partner operators.
  • Family Discount: Prices decrease as more family members (up to 4) are subscribed at the same address.
  • Contract & Promotions: Special offers (e.g., first months for 1 EUR/month) are available with a 24-month contract and only for online sign-up during promotional periods.
  • Activation Fee: Standard activation fee is 12 EUR, but new online subscribers can get this waived during promotions.
  • EON TV: EON TV streaming is available on mobile devices with these packages

Pricing can vary based on promotions, and they often throw in discounts if you’re bundling with home internet or TV. But the real win here? No stiff contracts, no nonsense. You can change your plan or cancel when you want.

2. Home + Mobile Bundles (Slovenia & Bosnia)

One thing Telemach does really well—especially in Slovenia and Bosnia—is bundling. If you’re already using Telemach internet or TV at home, you can score real savings on your mobile plan. We’re talking extra GBs, cheaper roaming add-ons, and priority network speeds.

This is super useful for digital nomads or families who don’t want to deal with five different providers. Everything’s managed through one account, and most of it can be done in their handy app—no need to call customer service every time you sneeze.

3. What about in Bosnia and Herzegovina?

Telemach Bosnia offers a range of EON packages that combine television, internet, and telephone services, tailored for different user needs. Below is a structured overview of the main EON tariffs, their features, and pricing.

And just like in Slovenia, everything’s managed digitally, and upgrades or changes are usually just a few taps away.

4. Telemach in Croatia: Meet EON

Telemach Croatia offers EON tariffs as part of its partnership with the EON platform, one of Southeast Europe’s leading OTT (over-the-top) services. EON provides Croatian users access to a rich array of local and international content, including more than 160 TV and radio channels—80 of which are in HD—plus over 19,000 video-on-demand titles, covering everything from movies and series to sports and news channels like Sport Klub and CNN affiliate. EON is accessible via a mobile app, desktop, Smart TV app, or the EON Smart Box, allowing users to watch content anywhere, anytime, and on any device, regardless of their internet provider.

Telemach Croatia offers three straightforward EON packages, making it easy for customers to select a tariff that fits their needs and budget. The platform features advanced options like a 7-day catch-up service, sports mode with real-time statistics, personalized profiles, and a dedicated kids’ mode.

Subscription to EON can be managed directly through Telemach Croatia’s sales channels, including physical stores and customer support lines. As of July 2024, Telemach Croatia announced a 7.2% price increase for its service packages, including EON tariffs, in response to inflation, but the company maintains that its prices remain 10–20% lower than most competitors


Roaming: Is it good for travel?

Here’s where Telemach stands out for regional users. All their newer plans are EU-regulation-compliant, meaning you can roam within the EU without extra charges (up to a fair-use limit). But here’s the kicker—some of their plans also let you roam regionally without stress.

If you’re bouncing between Serbia, Croatia, Montenegro, and Bosnia—like many people do regularly—you’ll find that Telemach often includes “regional roaming zones” that go beyond just the EU zone. That’s a huge plus for Balkan business travelers or digital nomads trying to stay connected across borders.

It’s not flawless—you still need to double-check which countries are included and whether 4G or 5G is fully supported while roaming—but it’s better than most regional competitors.

How’s their 5G?

Telemach has been gradually rolling out 5G, and in urban centers like Ljubljana and Sarajevo, coverage is already decent. You’ll get faster speeds, lower latency, and more reliable video calls—even in crowded places.

That said, it’s not yet blanket coverage, and if you’re up in the hills or on a rural road trip, you’ll likely be dropped back to 4G. Still, for a mid-size provider, the rollout has been impressive.

And if you’re on one of the higher-tier NAJ plans, 5G access is usually included—no premium upsell.

Any downsides?

Sure. No provider is perfect.

  • Customer service can be hit or miss. Some users swear by their local Telemach rep; others complain about long wait times or inconsistent responses via email or chat. (Pro tip: their mobile app is usually the fastest way to manage your plan.)
  • Fair use limits on unlimited plans still apply, and they don’t always advertise them clearly. That 300 GB “unlimited” plan might not be as unlimited as you thought.
  • International roaming outside Europe isn’t cheap. So if you’re flying to the US, Asia, or the Middle East, grab an eSIM or travel SIM before boarding the plane.

Should you get a Telemach SIM?

If you live in Slovenia, Bosnia, or regularly travel through the Balkans, yes—Telemach is a solid choice. The data allowances are generous, the bundles make sense, and roaming is regionally friendly.

Plus, with the increasing availability of eSIM support, getting started with Telemach is quicker than ever. You no longer have to wait for a physical SIM card—just scan a QR code, activate, and go.

TL;DR – Telemach in 2025:

  • Best for: Balkan-based users, regional travelers, remote workers.
  • Strengths: Big data plans, decent 5G rollout, EU/regional roaming, no long-term lock-ins.
  • Weaknesses: Customer service isn’t always perfect, international roaming pricey, and some plans have fine-print limits.
  • Tip: Bundle with home internet/TV for serious savings.

Whether you’re a local, a frequent traveler in the region, or a digital nomad eyeing an affordable Balkan base—Telemach offers real value. It’s not flashy, but it delivers. And sometimes, especially in telecom, that’s exactly what you need.
