    @aaronpk Maybe adding to the mystery: my login codes always start with a 4 (yeah, I’m okay making that effectively 7 digits now, whatever), but when they gave me one for signing up with Zelle it was 8 digits with a leading 2. Totally speculative, but I wonder if they assign a leading digit per subsystem.

    Oh fascinating, I just tested with Zelle and got similar results, the email code from Zelle started with 8, the SMS was 7

      @aaronpk Hrm. Subsystem code per user? I don’t still have my Zelle setup email. Do your login codes start with 4? (If they’re always 4, I assume the crackers already know this.)
