"Sampo's transfer during Easter weekend to the ownership of the Danish Danske 
Bank was by no means a smooth transition.

The bank's website crashed early in the morning. The online banking service 
functioned only sporadically during the day, and even some of the bank's cash 
dispensers would not work.
The bank's telephone service did not work, and the queues at the branch offices 
were hours long.
     
Especially frustrating was that some of the bank's debit, and credit cards 
would not work with ATMs.

Hannu Vuola, Sampo Bank's head of communications, said that the problem applied 
to a few hundred customers with a combined Sampo debit card and MasterCard 
credit card.
Some Sampo customers also reported problems with combined Sampo-Visa cards and 
with some, the difficulties extended to regular Sampo debit cards."
