Same thing at N26: download app, sign in with email+password, "oh, seems like it's a new device, let's identify with a selfie", takes selfie, I'm signed in 10 seconds later.

Too bad N26 explicitly does not support residents in Hungary, I will soon have to close this account despite I liked them a lot.

After I managed to kill my iPhone, I'm trying to restore my life on a backup phone. The biggest hurdle so far is to restore access to my bank account at DKB Germany.

The app fails to let me in despite I possess all credentials. At the first attempt the call center recommended using a VPN (!) which partially worked, at least I was able to log in, but still not initiate transfers or do 2fa.

They also recommended a password reset, after which I can no longer log in :D
