Forced to reset my password
Why does T Mobile's website force you to reset your password every couple of months!? When banking institutions who actually MANAGE YOUR MONEY leave you in peace, it's crazy for a phone compa...
Well other than for security reasons it's just good practice. With as many Wireless account as there are being hacked into with people's information being stolen and accounts being changed it's somewhat important to have an updated password as well as account verification PIN numbers.

Uh - sorry, no. This is not "standard industry practice". Of all the various accounts I have had elsewhere, this is the only place that FORCES it. Well, Yahoo forced it sometime back after a security breach... that's all I can think of. This is infuriating. I have VERY secure passwords built on a memorized algorithm and this is the only place that really screws it up. I have had to change it at least 4 times in the last couple of years. HATE IT. You need to have an OPT OUT.
