The worst part is that si many people there confuse one-time codes with 2-factor auth. “If you don’t like it, you can turn it off”. Except you can’t. Because it’s not 2-factor auth. I have contacted them via chat and snail mail and received the same incorrect response every time. Very alarming that they are playing fast & loose with my financial info and don’t even seem to know it.
