Citibank Online #171

Open HyperTurbo opened 5 years ago

HyperTurbo commented 5 years ago

Citibank's online account passwords are NOT case sensitive. I do not know how someone would document/add a screenshot for this. It's been this way for years.

Wow, really? That's awful.

If you want to take a stab at a PR somehow showing this, that would be great.

Try to create fake account with passord InUPPERCASE and show login with inuppercase. THe rule for login id are silly. image

It looks like I can't properly make a new account without opening a new bank account, and I obviously don't want to use my own account. I don't live near a citibank anymore, or I could go in person and be a weirdo and see if they can put me in contact with a tech support person who can confirm this via email or something? I don't know. I think the underlying reason (and this must be true for other old banks) is the mainframes used to store account data simply can't support it and there was no reason to because passwords would be entered by phone. Also they're too old to be worth the cost of migrating forward. As of 2017 Chase, Wells Fargo, Capital One, and American Express have account types that also have this issue. I'll keep digging and see if I can find any official documentation or try to get some kind of emailed confirmation from citibank(lmao unlikely).
