Yeah, only used by daft people tongue
I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

Currently using:
Pixel 7a (O2 & Lyca), One Plus 6 (Sfr), iPhone 12 Pro Max (Vodafone)

I spend all day typing in passwords to unlock my work computer that locks outs within 2 minutes. It starts the day booting using an encrypted password, then login using the local machine username then joy of joys, I then have to use a VPN with another two factor authorisation thing before I get to access my email on a remote desktop using another login. Sometimes I need to login in again to access other things/apps/areas which you can guess doesn't quite have single sign-on activated. If I go to lunch I guarantee when I come back, I've lost remote connection so have to login 3 times again. Downright annoying when working across multiple servers so I'm one who simplifies the keyboard entry of a password to combinations I can type quickly yet still comply with the requirements of a secure password combination. 

 

Needless to say I treat these types of articles with a hint of contempt as the main routes these days by hackers/crackers is to attack the database to get the passwords. That is more valuable as you won't know its been compromised for a long while and no matter how secure you've created one, its useless if it hasn't been stored and encrypted properly in the database.
