Sorry, I think I was hallucinating or something. You're right, they don't require 128-bit encryption and they only let you query your balance.
Are there any banks besides SFNB then that use weak 40-bit encryption for anything more than balance queries or transaction history, and allow to make real transactions on-line?
I know Merita in Finland allows bank transactions using 40-bit RC4, but they also use one-time passwords (every user gets a printed list with 40 or so password pairs, each of which you can use just once).
