    Not all Finnish banks require play services for their apps, if any. Mine works just fine on eOS. Don’t know about Mobiilivarmenne, if you’d rather use that

      Is this a recent change?
      I don’t know about play services, but a few years ago I received errors that the security of my device was compromised or something, if I installed a different OS, and couldn’t use banking apps.

      Edit: come to think of it, it wasn’t “a few” years, more like “many years” ago.

        Might it be that you didn’t re-lock your bootloader, or so? But if this was many years ago, many things may well have progressed since. I wouldn’t know details of that time, just recently switched over from Apple.
