    I use different PINs for all I re-use the same PIN if I get a new card.

    My sister uses the third set of four digits of her card (back to front) as her PIN, then she doesn't have to remember them.

    Good idea! You shouldn't be telling people about your sister's secret code!

    Different pins for everything.

    I use one password for all online sites that I don't want to register on but am forced to in order to gain access.

    For all other online sites (inc banks) I use a different password for each one, the maximum length I'm allowed to use, consisting of randomly chosen upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols. For example, if I had to choose a password upto a max of 16 characters now, I would pick a random set such as

    Hands up ... I'm a one PIN kinda girl most of the time ... although my newest CC currently has a different PIN ... I've only left it cos it's easy to remember.
