Thousands blocked from the bank-id – Västerbottens-kuriren (the Courier)

Affärsliv24. Thousands of swedes were barred last week from the mobile bank-id.

After Microsoft upgraded its operating system for mobile phones it was not possible anymore for the users of the older versions to identify themselves on their mobile phones, the Sydsvenskan writes.

— Unfortunately it is so. There are always users who end up caught in the middle when their phones are not supported anymore. There is nothing that we can do something about, ” says Johan Eriksson, ceo Finansiell ID-Teknik Bid AB, to the newspaper.

Likely the same thing will happen again. When the bank-id, the raised requirements on Android phones excluded-also users from the service. Around 7.2 million swedes use the bank id when they pay bills or identify themselves on the network. In the future, the company expects that virtually all swedes will use their services.
