We have a similar system in Norway with a bank called Skandiabanken.
[0] All you need to log in to somebody's account is their social
security number and a 6 letter code consisting of 0-9A-Z. Then you
have to generate a SSL certificate and you can log in. They even use
your social security number as a serial number in the cert, so getting
your hands on somebody's social security number is not a problem at
all if you have access to a computer they've used to log in with. (I
like to think most people do not remove their certificate, or they
might forget).

They *do* allow you to log in through more secure measures, but that
doesn't matter, as an attacker could just request the code over sms
anyways...

I have contacted them on multiple occasions to bring their attention
to the issue, but I am constantly ignored. Hopefully this will speed
things up. I will also send them a link to this thread.
