> What people and authorities?

- Make bank account.

- Bank forces you to use their app for obtaining TANs.

- App refuses to run because "your phone is rooted", i.e. because you removed Google's crap.

- No bank account for you, sorry bro.

I have personally been through this shit. Sure, some banks offer using a physical TAN generator - but not all!

Fair point.

That is a situation where I'd move bank, use an iPhone or just allow GServices on my device.

There is certainly a point where you just need to be pragmatic above all else. Otherwise, you can still reduce your interactions with their other services as much as possible.

Have you considered just making your own bank?

Not sure what TANs are, but why not using a separate (SIMless) old/cheap Android device only for that?
