Online banking 'still secure'

Now Nedbanks is claiming its secure, but cant you change the cellphone number it sms's to in your profile and then well, the hackers could sms themselves these authentication codes after logging into your account?
 
I think you would have to give them the ref. code that has been sent to your current cell number to change it to another one.

But if a guy sees you login detail in a internet cafe and then pickpocket your cell - then you are in trouble..
 
I do NOT like Nedbank because they are expensive and their service st!nk$. To get into your ABSA account your password stream is randomised. They also offer level two security and sends an sms to a predefined cellphone when you create a beneficiary. So Nedbank's claim that they are the safest is not entirely true.
 
FNB will send you either or both sms/email after logging in successfully to your account. So if it's not you then you can take action. Now to log in you have an option to use DigiTag. This is your third level of security. The string is very long and cannot be guessed, it does not give the same string more than once. You also get arleted when creating a benficiary or when there's any activity on your account. Dream on Nedbank... Try your cheap advertising somewhere else.
