Login verification every 30 days

[UKSBD]

Am I the only one who struggles with the 30 day verification to login?

The system says it has sent me a code, the code takes 5+ minutes to arrive, the link doesn't work, I go to login page again and The code is wrong

I use the back-up code method instead but down to the last 2 or 3 codes

Once they are used up is that it, I cant login or is there a way of generating more back up codes?

May I suggest using the Authy App on your mobile so you don't need to wait for emails.

You can install the browser plugin or have the desktop app.

Maybe you can - but not everyone wants to do that. I bet there is a percentage of users who never log back in after getting the verification message.

You only get the verification message if you have setup 2FA. If you haven't then you don't, but as moderators I do kinda force it on you guys

Just to add, I would recommend everyone who uses this (and any other website for that matter) on a regular basis setup 2FA (Two Factor Authentication) on their account(s)
