Change of Administrator: Your Rights

Questioner

I want to change administrators, yesterday, March 22, 2018, I had an intake. This administrator really wants my DigiD. I told him that this doesn't feel right to me and that I wanted to think about it. He told me that he couldn't do anything without my DigiD and that he would have to find an alternative. What should I do now? I now feel obligated to give this to him after all.

Lawyer

As a trustee, this can be authorized by you. You will then receive a code that you can give to the trustee, but it is not mandatory. The trustee can then communicate with his own username and password and the code as an authorized representative on your behalf. It is not desirable for the trustee to use the client's name and password. You can also file a petition with the court for the dismissal of the administrator, unless you can indicate that he or she is not doing his or her job properly, in which case I can assist you if necessary.

This may possibly become my new administrator for 1.5 years. I am leaving my current administrator. Now this administrator really wants my DigiD so he can arrange things. But isn't everything just copied/written over? If I don't want to give away my DigiD, I'd better find a new one. Because then he couldn't mean anything to me. Now it feels like an obligation Please note that a DigiD is strictly personal and you should never hand it over. So I don't know whether I should go along with this.
