We do appreciate that remembering passwords can be tricky, but setting effective and secure passwords on all the sites you use is vital in combating possible fraudulent activity using your personal details.

  1. Avoid using the same password for each of your online accounts so that they can’t all be fraudulently accessed at once. Multiple passwords keep you safer
  2. Use a mix of numbers and characters, and something that's very personal to you
  3. Most sites set a minimum number of characters to use, but avoid using obvious phrases like “password”, or your name, or phone number
  4. Try to mix upper and lower case letters and numbers in your passwordYou might like to use something like a well-known phrase like “Too many cooks spoil the broth” and turn it into 2MCstb, for example
