Don't you love it when banks decide to change their "security" policies without any warning?

Logging in via private wifi? Forbidden with a nebulous message. You better download their banking app or connect to your router via cable. As if the app they keep pushing wasn't a complete dumpster fire.

Need to transfer money? Okay, just register the account and the limitations will be removed after 24 hours... Does it say 24? I'm sorry we updated our policy to 72 hours and haven't bothered updating the message.

I swear one of my new year resolutions will be to switch banks asap

    How would the bank even know any LAN specifics? (They definitely should not)

    @saucyatom I've got no clue but the fact is I was able to log in through my desktop pc and not through my laptop.

    The error message was very vague about the issue. Something about either my browser of my connection being insecure. I didn't change browsers so that only leaves my connection.

    Here’s half a billion words, we’ll ask you one randomly.

    No you did wrong, those are the words for home banking, not for the credit card.

    No those are the ones for phone service. Ah don’t forget not to take pics or scan them btw, the paper sheets are very practical and giving you a single copy was big brain for the environment.

    Who the FUCK needs a randomly generated word to… ghhh fucking fuck!

    Banks do love to filter on user agents.

    Lan IP can be snacked through webrtc peer..

    @nitnip Certificate issue? Maybe your laptop has a wrong time set.

    @lotd If my bank did that it wouldn't be my bank anymore.
