And both are banks I'd never want to associate with. I would have used Sbanken before the DNB buyout (and I even did for a bit!), but now that's of the table too.
There are a few more options, but many are just worse if you look at their fees and interest rates.
I've been very happy with Bulder. The only thing they're missing is a web portal. The fact that they're missing that annoys me greatly, but they've been good to me in every single other aspect, so it's hard to be dissatisfied (especially compared to the other banks where I and others have been burned). Their app works fine on de-Googled Android, and so long as that's true, I can live with my choices.
I appreciate the info. Re: the banks I'm with, I have no choice.
I'm an immigrant and most banks refused to give me an account when I moved here. Or ghosted me during the months long process. These are the banks that let me live here, and actually gave me an account and bank id. It's the only real choice I have until I get citizenship.
Good point. They don't. Huh, that's really worrying. My bank started requiring phone for web portal only about a few years ago. They don't allow to use an alternative MFA method. This should be made illegal.
This is all inevitable direction over long period of time
What’s worrying is that noone protests about it
It doesn’t suprise me that corporations and governments want the laziest, most „protective” laws passed that extend their power. But why noone, absolutely noone puts some kind of resistance to it?
Government and citizens are at eternal conflict of interests. It has been this way and it will be this way forever.
Your job as a citizen is to make sure you have greatest amount of liberties
Is it that dire? I'm in with DNB and Nordea and they both have functioning netbanks. But I don't know how the rest are.
I've been getting by with a bankid codebrick and web browser access (although Nordea and DNB apps work fine on GrapheneOS).

Poland, all banks I know offer web portal. Linux, Firefox - works perfectly.
Follow up question: how many of those still let you log in and authorize transfers without relying on their mobile app as required second factor?

Noone will do it for you.
