Unless they've changed it in the last couple months, TRowe Price still limits passwords to 10 characters. And this is after a recent "We've upgraded our security!" push where I had to reset everything.

I've seriously considered closing my accounts over it.

Edit: Yep, still as bad

Password must be 6-10 characters and contain at least 2 numbers and 2 letters. Password may not contain the following special characters: space , + " % & ' ; = ^ or curly braces.




my bank's password has to be exactly 8 characters and is case insensitive

it's pretty insane considering it's like the most important password I have


I've got one better: my online banking requires 7 digits exactly, numbers only. This is so you can use the same "password" in their phone banking thingy.
