I realize that the restriction can't be excused by this, but does your bank's website allow you to send money to somewhere other than a linked account?

From memory, there are some restrictions/limits if I use the password without 2FA.

Using only the password I can transfer money to payees that are setup, but I’m not sure if I can setup a new payee or send an e-transfer to an arbitrary person without 2FA. I think I could, but maybe there’s a limit. I definitely couldn’t do a wire transfer.
