Could send a notification in 100% of the times when a new payment waits for a confirmation, which it doesn't, but otherwise does the job.

It is not possible to activate a new cell phone without the letter you got maybe years ago to activate your old phone. The photo tan app on the old phone should be able to show a code to scan, but does not have that function even though it is mentioned multiple times on the comdirect homepage
