ING's isn't a password it's a PIN number. That's why you can't use any letters or special characters.

- garethm 17y agoThat is kind of true - ING do call it a PIN. The thing is that all I can do with the PIN is to log on to their online banking site. That makes it a password in my opinion. If I want to use my card at an ATM say, they require me to use a different PIN.
- pmjordan 17y agoAnd the penalty for typing in the wrong PIN at an ATM is presumably a lot higher than providing the wrong PIN on their website, which means the feasibility of a brute force attack (which is what password complexity is all about) is entirely different.
- ldite 17y agoNo; 3 incorrect PIN entries on their website locks you out, and you have to get a reset. DoS of other people is made harder by also needing a customer number to login.
