Last week, I tried to register for a service and was really surprised by a password limit of 16 characters. Why on earth yould you impose such strict limits? Never heard of correct horse battery staple?

One of my past banks used to be case-insensitive. They aren't anymore (as far as I know). Their name starts with Key and ends with Bank.

My bank got busted a few years ago for cheating customers using their coin-counting machines. Literally nickel-and-dimed their own customers. They removed the machines and just threw loose cloth over the empty spaces - an ongoing testament to their shame, if they could feel shame, which they can't. Out of sheer laziness I'm still with them.
