BMO only uses the first six characters of your password for online banking.

I thought that the limit WAS 6 characters from telephone banking days prior to online banking and mobile banking - a holdover. So when I set up online banking eons ago I used the same PW and was setup instantly. I take it new account setups are asking for a longer and more secure PW?

Sadly this is more common than you might think and also well known

Really eh?

Whats the point in the password strength meter!

Password strength meter not only measures length, but also encourages not to use words and to mix up letters, numbers, special characters and uppercase/lowercase letters.

Not to forget the fact that feeling safe probably is one of the biggest things the strength meter should achieve.

Very interesting....at least it's not 4.

Yeah! I've unchecked "Save my card number"
