Frequently asked questions.
Answers to common setup and buying questions.
Which Bosnia and Herzegovina data plan should I buy?
For a short, light-use visit, the cheapest listed option is 1 GB for 7 days at €1.28. The 3 GB allowance is offered with 7, 15 or 30 days, so pick the duration that matches your itinerary. For frequent uploads or sharing across devices, compare 10 GB for 30 days at €11.18 with the 20 GB and 50 GB options, also valid for 30 days. No single plan is the best value for everyone: YouTube, video calls and a connected laptop drain a fixed allowance quickly, so weigh the allowance, pricing, validity and other features together before you buy. The network operator is BH Telecom.
Which network does this eSIM use in Bosnia and Herzegovina?
Listed networks: BH Telecom. Connects to 4G/LTE where available. 5G is not confirmed on this plan. Speeds and signal vary with your phone, location and network conditions.
Will my Android or iOS phone run this eSIM?
Confirm your exact phone model and regional variant, and that it's network unlocked. On an iPhone, 'No SIM Restrictions' under Settings > General > About means the device is unlocked. On Android, follow the manufacturer's compatibility guide for your model. Most newer iPhones and many Android handsets support eSIM, but the precise model decides whether this one installs.
At what point should I install and activate it?
Install the eSIM card over reliable Wi-Fi and save the supplied instructions before you travel. Follow the plan's activation steps carefully: installing the profile is not the same as starting the validity countdown. This is not instant installation in the sense of zero setup, so allow a few minutes online. On arrival, turn on the travel line and select it for mobile data.
Can I keep my usual phone number for WhatsApp and messages?
Your existing messaging-app accounts, including WhatsApp, work over the travel eSIM's data. These plans do not include a local phone number, standard calls or SMS. A bank code sent by SMS still needs your usual SIM and home carrier, so check those charges if that line stays switched on.
Can I use the data hotspot to tether my laptop?
The listed networks support hotspot. Any device you connect draws from the same data allowance. Tethering a laptop draws from the same fixed allowance as your phone. Pause automatic updates and cloud backups if you need that data for the rest of the trip.
Does it work across the border?
Bosnia and Herzegovina only. Croatia, Serbia and Montenegro are not included, even on the same road trip, and the eSIM will not provide data once you cross the border. If your travel continues into those countries, check the included-country list on a separate plan before you buy.
Does the data allowance reset every day?
No. Each plan gives the displayed total for its stated validity. Your phone and any tethered devices draw from the same allowance, which is not unlimited and does not renew one day at a time. It's also not a monthly subscription: the plan simply ends when the data or the stated validity runs out.
How do I handle a connection problem?
First confirm you're in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the travel line is on and selected for mobile data, and the plan still has data and validity left. Apply the supplied APN and roaming settings only to that line. If 4G still won't connect, try airplane mode briefly or restart, then test another location. 5G is not confirmed for this plan, so don't chase a 5G signal. Keep the eSIM installed while you report your phone model, location and order reference for help.
How can I keep my home SIM from using roaming data?
Turn off data roaming on your home SIM and switch off automatic mobile-data switching. Select the travel eSIM for data and apply any required roaming settings only to that line, not your regular network. Calls and SMS on your usual number still follow your home carrier's terms.
Can I possibly extend a plan or ask for a refund?
For top up options, profile reuse and refund requests, follow the terms supplied with your purchase; they aren't confirmed here. Buying a new plan won't extend an existing one or move unused data across. Read the purchase terms to see whether anything like a 'no contract' arrangement actually applies, and don't expect the best price or best coverage to be guaranteed. Keep your order reference and installation details ready when you ask for help.
