brokerages: 2FA backup codes and lost-phone recovery (2026-09-15)

Fails that kill broker-compare-2026-recovery-2026-09-15-s7

• Paying Binance annual with SMS-only 2FA
• Skipping backup codes on XP
• Leaving brokerages on the old phone for BTG
• Closing before a second-device login

Go / no-go 2026-09-15

Annual only if backup codes open brokerages without the old phone for “brokerages”. Otherwise broker-compare-2026 stays monthly until brokerages works on a new device.

Download backup codes before you trust the app

On Binance, turn on 2FA, save the backup-code file named broker-compare-2026-recovery-2026-09-15-s7, and try a login without the enrolled phone. A SMS-only lock on 2026-09-15 is a trap.

On XP, turn on 2FA, save the backup-code file named broker-compare-2026-recovery-2026-09-15-s7, and try a login without the enrolled phone. A SMS-only lock on 2026-09-15 is a trap.

On BTG, turn on 2FA, save the backup-code file named broker-compare-2026-recovery-2026-09-15-s7, and try a login without the enrolled phone. A SMS-only lock on 2026-09-15 is a trap.

Recover after the vendor owner loses the handset

Run custody and commissions on Binance: price a typical trade for your profile. If recovery needs a 48h ticket, freeze annual. brokerages must survive a new device in Akron.

Run tax / statement on XP: export a report and open it offline. If recovery needs a 48h ticket, freeze annual. brokerages must survive a new device in Akron.

Run withdrawal on BTG: time a small test withdrawal. If recovery needs a 48h ticket, freeze annual. brokerages must survive a new device in Akron.

How Binance, XP, and BTG fail recovery

Binance fails without downloadable codes. XP fails if brokerages needs the old SIM. BTG is the control: if its backup file opened, do not excuse SMS-only vendors.
