A lot of this actually seems to have come from recent regulatory pressure for 2FA (which I support in principle, don't get me wrong). I don't even think most of them have given much thought to rooted phones, rather they're just cargo culting Industry Standard Best Practices and turning all the device verification options to max. Luckily, most of them realize they still have customers without a compliant smartphone, or one at all, and offer a fallback, which is almost always SMS... Though you get those newer "app only" banks. I've never used any since I see that as a major downside, not a selling point, so idk whether they tolerate root. Even with traditional banks, I've come across a few features which can only be accessed via the phone app - in this case likely due to the belief that "web? Everyone just uses apps!" rather than security |
