I keep an old-fashioned address book (the type with the pages alphabetically indexed) and every password, user name, etc. etc. is stored there. Absolutely amazing how many there are. If someone was able to find this amongst my many address books and papers AND have my phone and laptop, then GOOD LUCK to them. My two eldest daughters know of its existence and whereabouts it is kept, so that in the event of mhy serious illness or deeath they would be able to access everything.

Grandma70. That is my thinking also.

I write them down. The chance of someone bothering to go through all my notebooks to find them is very remote.

I'm reluctant to store them as my card was recently cloned and I'm sure it was through a booking using a stored card on my laptop

My I-pad stores them.

we are told not to write them down or have the same codes for different accounts and not to save them in our phones so how are we possibly expected to remember them all?

and why is everyone saying THAN QUEUE

that's better smile
