When moving bankID from one phone to…

When moving bankID from one phone to another, they have this really annoying and absolutely unnecessary process where you need to wait for 1 hour, and then after 1 hour you have 2 hours to complete the process.

First of all, if someone had gained access to your bankID and wanted to abuse it, they could still take all your money from the bank without encountering this silly "security" feature. So why suddenly that is slapped in my face when changing phone is a mystery to me.

I would much rather that someone stole my bankID onto their phone, than taking my money from the bank. Because I would notice immediately, and then I would freeze all my accounts and involve police, and my banks.

You should remove this stupid hypothetical "it sounded good in my head" idea from your app. It is solving a problem that has never existed, and if it has then that's mainly an issue of stupidity and not of security flaws.

If someone has free access to your phone, and knows your bankID passcode then you can thank yourself if they F you up.

I had to try like 4 times before I finally remembered to finish the process in time, because the last god damn thing I think about in my daily life is the bankID app, which serves such a specific purpose that I think people would intuitively expect it to work without being bothered by such idiotic brain teasers.

Stop. Your job is to be an ID app, yes that is not much of a job, so you better make sure you do it well. When you don't do such a simple job well, you look incompetent beyond belief.

I smell government funding involved here, I have no idea if that is the case, but that is the only explanation I can see. They want to increase their funding budgets so they are trying to waste money on implementing useless stuff.

Either that, or they are just enjoying such an easy and competitionless monopoly that they don't give a shi- what they do.

You have one job. I will handle phone access issues myself thank you very much, please keep your filthy hands away from anything that is not your job.

And just for clarification, I am talking about the Norwegian BankID app. I use both Swedish and Norwegian BankID, and the norwegian one is experienced similarly to a handful of feces wrapped in fine silk paper. It looks nice, but it stinks like sh-

They don’t care about your time at all

They don’t care about your time at all! Once you changed your SIM card! Bank ID will stop working!! Then you have to hit your head in the wall! Because your life stops and the Bank managers are very cold! Even colder than the weather in Norway! Your time and your life is not important! Since the banks pay what the state wants, you will be the victim! No customer protection at all!!

Bankid is very poor

Bankid is very poor, causing too many problems which are difficult to fix when you are not in Norway. Problem is bankid fails too many times and is then a nightmare to fix. It may be easier for Norwegians living in Norway, but I live in the UK and need this to access my Norwegian account to pay taxes nationaly and locally. Without bankid you can not talk to the bank to get bankid fixed so you end up going in circles. Why can't I have bankid on my phone, a UK number. Or an app on my phone instead of code generators with batteries that fail when you really need them. 7 - 10 days to get a replacement sent! Not a good system, it relies too heavily on badly thought out methods, and they expect the banks to fix their problems
