Thanks for all the suggestions and experiences shared here. I decided to go with OP and it was smooth.

Does anyone have experience of online banking with Aland bank (Ålandsbanken)? They have a single branch in Helsinki but review is good (all others are terrible) and wikipedia says they won the best customer loyalty years ago.Beep_Boop wrote: ↑Mon Sep 11, 2017 7:52 amWhile betelgeuse is correct from a legal point of view, there are things you need to keep in your mind from the practical point of view. If don't want to bother fighting the usually ignorant bank customer service intern about your rights, I suggest you avoid Nordea completely. Almost all other banks make things easier for immigrants. Anecdotally, OP bank is one of the easiest banks for getting your online banking and online identity access from.
