Dial-in Authenticator!

Yeah, this is going to make logging in SO MUCH FASTER.

The only problem is that it won't work for guilds that require authenticators to access the g-bank. Which may or may not hose me at this point.

Once this goes live, I would be very disappointed in any guild that didn't add it to the list of acceptable two-factor authentication schemes for bank access, assuming it shows up in the options of course.

I hope this will be available in europe as well.

This is one of 3 options for authentication, I don't see why guild access that requires the use of authenticators would be impacted by this. Its just a different form of the authenticator.

why do you need to enter it again to switch teams? if your using the same 5 accounts, just logout instead of exit.

I have tons of teams and never need to re-enter the code, you just activate the different teams in IS and then go. no problems.

I feel naked without my mobile authenticator now. But I wonder how this is going to effect my bank alt guild. I guess I can't transfer guild leadership to my other toons anymore? So I am stuck with the current leader till they change the policy?

As mentioned in a previous post, I travel quite a bit and may be willing to try this out. Just last week I was in San Francisco and it did the same thing as when I was in Canada (made me verify via email again and change password) even though I use the authenticator.
Most of the time it's not a problem playing from different locations within the US.
