What to do with Swish if your phone is stolen

If your phone is stolen or lost, your safest option is to block Swish.

Published Modified

You can block Swish in several ways, the easiest is to block your mobile BankID. This is the recommendation from Swish themselves. Since identification via Bank ID is required to use Swish, it means that Swish also becomes unusable. (If you use another solution than BankID, for example, SecurityID, that is what should be blocked instead.)

You can block Mobile BankID even when you don't have your phone at hand by contacting your bank. If you can still log in to your Internet bank, you can also remove the Swish connection and block BankID there.
