Now Absa insisting on a cell phone app to log in to on-line banking!

I have complained in the past about ABSA's strange log in system for internaet banking compared to other banks. Again today I couldn't log in so I call the call centre (15mins later) to find out I have to download a cell app (at my cost I presume) to enable me to use internet bank online on my laptop. Why do I have to do this when other banks just use the cell to confirm I am the correct person??

Another nail in the coffin.
