A PIN failure induced issues with funds for hours this night. A spokesperson for the Dutch Funds Affiliation estimated that 30 to 40 p.c of all debit card funds had been affected. He spoke of a “main disruption”.
ATMs weren’t affected by the outage.
The outage began round 6 p.m. and was resolved following a number of hours. It seems that the issues began with a transaction processor, says the spokesperson for the Dutch Funds Affiliation.
The PIN disruptions led to disappointment amongst individuals in supermarkets and outlets. At an IKEA department in Haarlem, workers handed out cookies. At numerous supermarkets, individuals had been requested on the entrance if individuals may pay in money. In any other case they would not be allowed in.
