Back a few years ago, my personal ID number changed. Just to sum up for people who don’t know, in Finland, the personal ID number is used for everything. It basically identifies you to government and banking services.
Given the data debacle I talked about previously, I decided it would probably be good to request my own Posti data, as GDPR allows me to do so.
You can imagine my surprise when clicking the request link and hurting a wall saying I don’t exist:

After talking to some people, it turns out the way of fixing this is quite easy. You just need to log into the Moving Notification site of Posti (muuttoilmoitus.fi
) with your bank details.
After doing so, I can finally access the data request page, as simple as that!
