It's fucking insane that an internet banking portal has such a low cap on max characters and such shitty rule enforcement.

Visa has a hard limit of 8 and requires the first 4 to be numbers because the phone tree might require it as a password

The whole banking industry is ridiculous and is ridiculously legislated

USAA has 8-12 ONLY. My smallest memorized password algorithm is 13 characters, that I typically use for throwaways, doesn't even fit.
