Is LHV Pank Down? Live status & outage reports

Service info and troubleshooting

LHV App Won't Open or Crashes

If the LHV mobile app freezes on launch or closes immediately, start by force-closing it and reopening. If that doesn't help, clear the app cache in your phone settings. Outdated versions often cause instability, so check the App Store or Google Play for a pending update. On older Android devices, clearing stored data and reinstalling usually resolves persistent crashes.

Login Fails in Personal Account

Authentication errors are often caused by incorrect credentials or an expired session. Double-check your username and password, paying attention to caps lock. If you use a PIN or biometric login and it stops working after a phone update, disable and re-enable biometrics in the app settings. For web access, try a different browser or clear cookies and cached files, as stale browser data frequently blocks the login flow.

Payment or Transfer Does Not Go Through

• Confirm your account has sufficient funds and that daily transfer limits haven't been reached
• Check whether the recipient's IBAN or account number was entered without spaces or extra characters
• Make sure your card isn't blocked for online transactions — this can be toggled inside the app
• If paying on a merchant site, disable any browser extensions that might interfere with the payment form

LHV Website Not Loading

When the site is unreachable, first rule out your own connection by opening another banking or financial site. If only LHV fails, try switching from Wi-Fi to mobile data or vice versa. DNS issues can silently block specific domains — changing your DNS to 8.8.8.8 or 1.1.1.1 often fixes this without any other changes needed.

Slow Response and High Ping

Sluggish interface or delayed transaction confirmation usually points to network congestion. Run a quick speed test to verify your connection isn't throttled. If speeds look fine but the service still lags, the issue may be on the server side during peak hours — waiting a few minutes and retrying typically resolves it.

Push Notifications Not Arriving

• Open your phone settings and verify notifications are enabled for the app
• Check that battery optimization isn't restricting background activity for the app
• Log out and back in to refresh the push notification token, which can become invalid after OS updates

Card Transaction Declined Unexpectedly

A declined card doesn't always mean a bank-side block. Verify that internet payments are enabled for your card in the app settings. If the transaction was in a foreign currency, confirm that cross-border payments are active. For repeated declines with no clear reason, contacting LHV support directly is the fastest path to identifying whether a security rule triggered the block.
