Might be for telephone banking, but they always ask for other stuff.


No idea.


Challenge response. My bank (NatWest) uses it if I want to make a change
to a standing order, or add a payee.

I am given a string of digits from the website. I insert my card, press
Respond and enter my PIN. I also enter those digits. I am given another
set of digits as a response to type back in.

I probably do it about once a month.
