Ive never had an issue with Chase's password system. Then again I never forgot my password once... let alone 5 times.

Just write them on a piece of paper and put it under your mousepad. That's what everyone else does.

I have scripts for lots of sites that keep a history of past passwords to solve this problem for me. Password policies like that all have a limit, usually around 10 password changes where you can then reuse a previously used password. Therefore, I wrote a script that changes my password 50 times to random letters, numbers, and symbols. After that cycle, the script sets my password back to the one I had before. This process works everywhere I have bothered to write a script for.

Problem solved.

My god I've had to go through password reset 5 times because I've either a. forgotten my password or b. forgot my username (had to change when wamu -> chase)

Can't duplicate any passwords what the fuck, I only got 5 "master" passwords and I've already used all of them up you fuckers. What am I supposed to write these fucking passwords down now? WHAT THE FUCK GOOD IS THAT

WHAT THE FUCK CHASE


/rant

yes, them trying to protect you from someone hacking into your account is a terrible thing.

I have 2 technically. 1 for personal and 1 for business.
That being said I haven't forgotten either of those, so I havent had the need for 5.

WaMu -> Chase = 2 new logins (banking, persona/business)
WaMu -> Chase = 1 new login (credit, business)

+ 1 previous chase login for my sony credit card, which used to be some other company (citi iirc)

So I guess I have 4 logins.

Security admins with bad password requirements drive people to it...

At my last company I gave really good requirements. In my experience, the credit card companies are very relaxed in their requirements. This is what I'm most worried about:

My god I've had to go through password reset 5 times because I've either a. forgotten my password or b. forgot my username (had to change when wamu -> chase)

Can't duplicate any passwords what the fuck, I only got 5 "master" passwords and I've already used all of them up you fuckers.

So far we know that even with "only 5" he apparently uses for all his accounts, he forgets them all the time. But most importantly, we know if we ever got a hold of his password from a less secure source, we have a 1 in 5 chance of logging in to any number of other accounts he has. Revealing this information in popular forum is almost as bad as the postit note...

on top of that, I usually use pass phrases that are modified systematically with symbols and numbers. the problem of course is when I run into a damn website that has some stupid 8 or 10 character restriction and/or no symbols/spaces.

Do not forget to hide it in your pr0n folder...
