After I enter my UserID at BofA.com, it then shows me a graphic I'd previously selected, as well as a phrase below it that I'd hand entered. If that doesn't appear, then I know something is wrong.

Agreed, they have moved on to username and password on one page. They do allow two factor authentication instead. After entering my username/password, I am asked to select my on file email or phone number at which point a code is sent.

Now if my phone is compromised, I'm in trouble.
