Impossible to delete a driver due to security reasons - Pedroxz15 - 01-12-2020

I tried today to delete a second driver from my account and a window appears saying I can't for security reasons

Can somebody explain to me why they added this function of not deleting drivers, this is stupid (in my opinion)

Because multiple times people giving out their account information to people ended up having their drivers deleted by them and this is I guess meant to stop this kinda thing.

Oh shit I didn't know about this, but because of this situation, I change my mind

Imo driver deletion should be available but with a stronger security, probably through SMS

I mean... why give out account info in the first place? And then you're surprised if you get deleted? This is dumb...

SMS or 2FA (Two-factor authentication)

That's not really the reason as if i remember correctly this driver deletion prevention is added alongside with the in game account recovery feature. More likely it is there to countermeasure the raised possibility of account hijacking caused from this feature. Well, either way i agree this is stupid. At first i thought the driver deletion prevention is temporary. I need to delete one of my drivers. Just make the prevention active only for period of time after a password related activity detected.
