I am all for keeping safe online, but having to get up and find my phone to find a code to put into the site to get onto Sainsbury's to place an order - and it's not just Sainsbury's, it seems to be everyone - is really tiresome.

Does it annoy anyone else too?

Two factor identification is a pain but it’s to stop people hacking your accounts which is a price worth paying.

Mildly but not as much as having my account hacked would do. I keep my phone on my person most of the time so it's no big effort.

It’s the ‘prove you’re not a robot’ ones that are annoying me. Tfl have ones with two sets of pictures that are always really unclear, something like ‘click the bridge’ then a 1.5cm square blurry image of something grey that could be a wall/ bridge or rock face

The ones that annoy me are the random letters and numbers all in a grey jumbled up line. I can't do them, I have to do the audio challenge instead Blush

I don't mind 2FA but do worry I might be a robot.
