    How about this issue? Resolvable? Or need to physically return to Mainland?

    A lot more things now doable through certain bank's apps, including ID updating, but not if the account is in such a dire state that a counter visit is required of course...

    The USB dongle stopped working, exchange needs a physical pickup from their branch, in person. I can still access the account online, but can't do any transactions.

    Yesterday used my COB credit card and it worked.

    Ah... any way to re-register using a phone app?

    I still have dongles (somewhere) for my CMB and ICBC accounts, and a code generator for my BOC. In practice: I don't even know if they work anymore. At some point several years ago these became obsolete and everything is now done through the phone app. Biometrics have taken over.
