I suspect you are absolutely correct Crystal as the bank's online
service tech said he didn't even see a login attempt at their end when I
gave it a try while we were speaking on the phone.

The error that the OP reports suggests that the login process is
failing before that.
In our experience, banks sometimes check odd aspects of http requests in a
misguided
attempt at security. For example, I'm aware of one that checks for the
presence of
an accept-encoding: gzip header on the login request, and if it's missing,
returns a
generic error message. Took me about five minutes to work that out.
We also know of a bank that has what seems like a backdoor, (or just a plain
bug), to
bypass their two-factor authentication in some cases, which took about 15
minutes to
find.
