    It’s not, but it’s much easier than visiting a branch or spending hours waiting on the phone to speak to someone who doesn’t have great English.

      Or you could just bank from a web browser on a cheap laptop. Or use a cheap burner phone for banking only, separate from your everyday phone.

      I have a few bank accounts and none of them force the app for 2FA. They can also use text or even an email address.
