Switch banks. That's what I did. I had a bank that required an app to use them as well before I decided that I cared about my privacy and wanted more of it. And when I found out that my bank wouldn't let me do things, I switched banks. Because fuck them.

Generally it's neobanks that cause the most problems. If you're using older banks that have been around for quite a long time, they don't have nearly the technology, so are less likely to have this occur. In the United States, an example of this might be something like Wells Fargo or Discover or something like that, whereas one of these neobanks that would cause problems would be like chime.

Generally, stay away from thin tech and stay with actual banks. You might also look at credit unions. My local credit union is really good, and has a good online website, and has an app as well, but doesn't require it at all.

my condolences are you euro?
