You can then tick the trusted device option, so if you use the same device whether it be computer/laptop/phone
you don't have to keep entering a 2nd code other than your password on that device. If anyone else tried to log in using another device they would still have to enter the 2 step code, which changes every 30 seconds |

I left because of issues with management casemoney, in 2014. Nothing major but time to leave. Loved working there though, as a massive sports fan and gambler, I was in my element. I had a great 5 years there and undoubtedly the highlight of my working life. I wasn't learning anything either, they were relying on me too much and I wasn't being rewarded so naturally I had to move on. I worked for 2 more mainstream gambling firms and both had much fewer hacked cases than BF, but then BF is massive worldwide company and with Exchange etc, and money sitting in, they are massively attractive for fraudsters. I honestly loved trapping funds from hacks though, best part of my job by far. Let's just say Ukranian BF accounts were a constant problem for receiving the funds. Betfair did their obligations by introducing two-factor and I have not negativity towards the company at all. There was no indications any issues with Betfair, want to make that clear. However, I am honest guy, and I always stood up for the punter. Saying no unauthorised access is unacceptable if they can't back it up. I wasn't backward in coming forward in telling people what we needed to do to stop these cases.

Unlike betfair there is no check box saying this is a trusted device to be found on gruss |
