I bet it's the BNZ - they now need a confirmation from their smartphone app, when you try to log in on the computer. Kiwibank is NZ owned.

We're with TSB who in the last year have adopted 2 factor authentication for significant transactions including payment to a new recipient. Only a text sent with a code number which needs to be entered for the the transaction to be completed. Pretty standard stuff these days. Functionality for some third party stuff such as Mastercard is a bit basic but TSB are gradually improving on this front. And the bonus is that access to a real human is usually prompt, friendly and easy.

We have a strict regime of not using our smartphones for financial dealings. I don't have enough faith in phone security to enter bank details into them so all banking or online payments are done via laptop or IPad whose security protocols are kept strong and well updated. Phones are just for comm's as far as we're concerned.

I'm with Westpac and access it via PC only.
I don't have the app installed on my mobile but do get occasional prompts to verify a transaction.

driftwood,

May have to use Westpac then!!.

We have bank accounts with most of the Banks and some Finance Coys. to boot.
