Hi, I wanted to ask about the police here. I tried to ask for help yesterday, when we wanted to report a thief. I had to call 114 multiple times, because they were busy and asked me to call back… the third time when they asked me to call back again, I told them I’ve been told the same twice before. So they finally talk with me, and tell me they can’t do anything, because we didn’t see the person actually stealing & I have to report it online. We had the thief nearby for the whole time I tried to get a hold of them, but nothing.

I am from Eastern-Europe, where police gets paid less and isn’t as praised as here, but when I want to report something, they immediately do the paperwork and try to help. Why is it so different here? Do I really pay this high amount of tax to be told to report stuff online? Which, by the time I get home and get to sit down in front of my computer to actually report it, is a lost cause.

I am really not sure and been wondering, because this was my first experience here with police, and it was a bit upsetting. Especially the part when they ask me to call back, not even once haha.

    No idea what kind of made up scenario you’re referring to, but if you believe it’s ok what OP has experienced, I have bad news for you.

    You’re paying taxes for a service that is not working as expected, and you’re drinking their cool aid.

    I LOVE Denmark, but it baffles me how some Danes blindly believe DK is flawless, and get shocked at anyone who slightly criticize it.

      You call - that’s one person - and talk to a cop - that’s another person, and the outcome is a report you could have filled out yourself online. That is a complete waste of this cops time that could have been used on something that really matters.

      No DK isn’t flawless, but there aren’t enough cops to deal with cats up trees and stolen bicycles, however unfair you might think that is.
