Hi,
I've been a bit stressed as well, so I don't think it's because of that the forms are in English.
But the forms don't seem to be 'tailored' for bank-complaints.
But if you please send me another form, then I can fill out the form as good as I can manage.
It seems to be, that for you to transfer all you information to Norwegian, would be unreasonable, since I think this is not something that is easily done, and that probably is expensive.
So if you please send me another form, then I can try to calm down, in between the other cases that are happening, and send back the form.
Hope this is alright!
Yours sincerely,
Erik Ribsskog
