For a number of Nordea customers, purchases made on December 8-10 have been drawn twice.

– From what I have understood, the purchases have been double booked, both as purchase and reservation, says Henrik Devell, press communicator at Nordea.

The reason is that “technical problems” have arisen.

– We apologize profusely for this and understand that it creates major problems for our customers, says Henrik Devell.

All incorrect transactions will be corrected as soon as possible, Nordea promises. It is still unclear how long it will take. Those who find themselves in trouble are encouraged to call customer service, who can remove the incorrect reservation.

What does the waiting time look like in customer service?

– If you’re a little unlucky, there may be a lot of customers who call in at the same time, so you have to be a little patient, says Henrik Devell.
