ETrade: It's easy to change the password you use to log on to your account at E*TRADE FINANCIAL. Go to our Change Log-on Password page and select a new password that is between six and 32 characters long and contain at least one letter and one number. Your new password may contain letters and numbers, but no special characters (such as # or %).
My bank: Passwords must contain 8-13 characters, of which you must have at least one number and one letter. (and no special characters allowed either: Webster) Vanguard: Your password must have 6 to 10 characters, including at least 2 letters and 2 numbers. Don't use spaces. (and no special characters allowed either: Webster) Absolutely stupid IMNSHO.
