The Tax Administration will send e-invoice proposals to some of our customers

30 April 2024  The Tax Administration will send an e-invoice proposal to some of our customers in Nordea Mobile and Netbank in June. The proposal will be sent to the customers who pay real estate tax and have given a Nordea account number to the Tax Administration for tax refunds but have not ordered an e-invoice yet.

You can see the e-invoice proposal in Nordea Mobile under ‘Payments and e-invoices’ and in Netbank under ‘E-invoices’. If you accept the proposal by clicking or tapping it, you will receive e-invoices for your real estate taxes as well as any prepayments and back taxes as well as inheritance and gift taxes directly in Nordea Mobile and Netbank. 

You have 30 days to accept the e-invoice proposal. After that, the proposal will be deleted automatically.

E-invoice is an easy way to pay your invoices – and you can receive e-invoices anywhere and anytime. You can also start using automatic payment which means that payments will be debited to your account automatically on the due date. 

Safe online, beware of phishing

19 April 2024  Never click on the links in SMS or email and enter your card details or login with your online access codes. Phishing emails may also contain an attachment with a link to a phishing page. Never let anyone download any additional applications on your device. Nordea or authorities never ask you to disclose your online access codes via phone, messages or social media. 

Nordea never contacts you to open a new “safe account” or transfer your money to a "safe account".  We will never request your personal banking details or ask you to follow a link to log in to Nordea Mobile or Netbank in our newsletters.

Beware of phishing messages and calls

30 October 2023  People in Finland are being targeted by phishing scams via text messages and emails. These appear to be coming from a legitimate source, such as the Tax Administration, your bank, the post office or some other service provider. Please don’t use your Nordea access codes on websites that you have accessed through a link in a text message or email. 

The fraudulent text message or email is often followed by a phone call from someone pretending to be a representative of Nordea. The caller tells you that the text message or email you received is a phishing scam and that your banking details have been compromised. They claim that your money is at risk and that you need to move it some place safe. The caller may tell you that they will open a new account for you to which you should transfer your money. 

Please keep in mind that we will never open a new account for you in case of suspicion of fraud and ask you to transfer money to the new account. We will also never ask you to confirm a credit transfer or any other transaction in a phone call.   

If you receive a call that appears to be coming from Nordea and the caller is asking you to confirm or make credit transfers or card payments, don’t follow the caller’s instructions. Hang up the call and contact our Customer Service.

Frequent questions about the privacy policy

Nordea Electron cards replaced by Nordea Debit cards

9 February 2022: Visa Electron, a product of the international card company Visa, will be discontinued in 2024. This means that if you have a Nordea Electron card, we will automatically replace it with a Nordea Debit card when your card expires or you need to renew your card. You will no longer be able to pay with a Visa Electron card after April 2024.

Nordea Debit includes the same features as your Nordea Electron card. The only difference is the card’s name and design.

Your card will be replaced automatically so you don’t need to do anything.
