I hate this fucking app, and I hate their website even more. I wasn't allowed to us hyphens in my password.
More than anything I hate that banks make me I replace my 20-character password with a 4-digit pin for the mobile app.
I would go out of my way to make an account with a bank that takes security more seriously. Sigh.
Would you be allowed to set password'); DROP TABLE ClienId;-- ?
You should be allowed to. Any bank that doesn't sanitize their inputs is just waiting to be hacked.
If I remember correctly semicolons couldn't be used either. Maybe someone already tried this? Lmao
My own banking app stopped working after an update too. My crime? Using a fairphone.
Huh? I don't understand this post
the idea is that a vpn makes you more secure (which is not true outside some very exceptional circumstances)
IMO this is one example of the countless stupid rules banks force on its customers in the name of security.
- No VPN
- Smartphone app only protectable with a four digit pin
- Access from rooted phones not permitted (but windows PC is ok)
- Maximum password length enforced
There are many more, feel free to add some mire stupid ideas.
Bank doesn’t allow use if connection is originating from VPN. It’s really stupid because passwords exist.
Oh yeah. Like I have my physical 2fa security key, verified 2fa phone number, and can verify from my email, but if I log onto vpn with all this information I am a bot user. Hate it. Fortunately, either my bank doesn't flag it or protonvpn is getting past it. But, I know plenty of websites and services like Geometry Dash flag my vpn.
There's no reason a VPN would increase your security, and many reasons why the bank would discourage the use of VPNs to access their systems
