Did this bank start out as a "telephone bank"? One of the largest German consumer banks still does this because they were the first "direct bank" without locations and typing in digits on the telephone pad was the most secure way of authenticating without telling the "bank teller" your password. So it was actually a good security measure but it is apparently too complicated to update their backend to modern standards.

They do require 2FA, though.
