I pay all my bills online so I’m used to navigating logins and payment apps. I never have nearly as much trouble paying credit card bills.

My password wasn’t working, so I tried recovery. The recovery asked for my email, birthdate, zip code, and last 4 digits of my SSN. All things I know well, but they say it’s wrong. Now I’m locked out of my account for the 2nd time in two days…

I almost think it’s a conspiracy to enable charging people more late fees.

      Many (if not all) of the KeePass clients are better than Lastpass, LogMeIn or any of the hosted solutions. More portable too

        I’m planning to leave LastPass because of the concerns, but as long as I have my phone or an Internet connection, both of which are true almost all of the time, I have access to all of my passwords.

        How does it get more portable than that?

          KeePass works off of a local data store which you can sync up to the cloud, so you don’t even need Internet access flto open your credentials store

            LastPass does the same, afaik. I was specifically talking about the portable aspect.

              Ah, that I did not know.

              So it’s an equivalent to lastpass for portability. My mistake.b

        I used to use them, but I jumped ship after they had repeatedly had security incidents that they downplayed the severity of.

        I get that security is hard, but they just didn’t seem to prioritize it. And my trust in them was broken when they treated it as a PR issue instead of a threat to my security
