Yet more passwords
I cannot now buy a train ticket online without having to register my debit card with a new validation scheme from Visa. Of course, allowing me to use my pin number as the password would be too rational and easy.
It has to be a mixed alphanumberic string at least six characters long.
And I had a letter in the post today from Alliance and Leicester business banking (whose online system is so secure that I get logged out every other time I use it because I've typed in a password character incorrectly while trying to recall if 7 is the 6th digit or the 7th one of my magic number) THey're going to be adding an extra level of security. Extra? I already have to put in a company ID, a log on ID, and not one, but two, long complicated passwords.
Aaargh!
