Zopa’s New Login
Zopa has changed it’s login screen and as would be expected from a company which is based on innovative software, it has created one of the simplest and secure login systems that I have seen.
You login initially with a standard user name and password. You can check either or both of two boxes.
- Remember the user name on this computer.
- Show the characters I’ve typed into the password.
Many systems like eBay use the first, but few use the second, which is important to me, as my left hand is a bit wayward with the shift key.
They then ask you one of three check questions, such as where you were born. This question has always been case insensitive, which is the way it should be. If it’s not, you then might have to write it down, which of course breaks the security.
I can truthfully say though that I’ve never had any problems with logging in to Zopa. Or any security issues either.
