With banks there is other problem, because they often use partial passwords. They are password manager unfriendly and often limited to 16 characters.

Société Générale uses the client ID and a 6 digit passnumber (sent via physical mail) with a digital numpad (you have to click) where each number is randomly placed.
So secure.
And they force a change every 3 months. As if a new 6 digit pass was more secure than the last 6 digit pass.
It annoys me to no end when I have to hand-craft a password to stay within the silly rules of some service.
Be vocal about this! Keep complaining to the services you use that don't accept such valid passwords. Banks for example are notorious in insisting on short passwords and arcane limits on which characters to use (ING in the Netherlands limits you to 20 characters, and nobody there seems to be able to explain why).
