Directv Web Site Keeps Asking for "One-time" Code

I don't get it.

Every time I login to the Directv web site, it wants  the sent security code for the so-called one-time verification.

If they want this every time I log in then they shouldn't call it a one-time verification.

It gets old.

AFAIK you have to stay logged in after entering the code.  I also log out so have to keep entering a new code.

I can see continuing to log in with my username and password but why must they see the need to send me a identity verification every time I try to log in.??

Most companies are moving to requiring two factor authorization whether you want it or not.

But why call it a 'One-Time Verification Code'??

So long as you are logged in and don't delete the cache and cookies it is.
