Why are we having to log in all the time?

I would never consider remaining logged into any financial organisation. If you clear your "History" you will then need to log in again. This makes me think that for those of you saying you never need to log in you never clear your history? really is worth doing every so often.

I never log out either but just now I had to put all my details in again even though I’ve got keep me logged in checked, makes no difference!…?

This is precisely what happens to me too, and it did last year at this time too.

But it could have something to do with the fact that a clear my search history after accessing my Internet banking site and other sites such as our Insurance company, I suppose.

I always log out of anything to do with finances. You can't be too careful...

I never log in these days. I used to but then realised there is no need.

I never have to log in. It’s all just waiting for me!

Me too. I never log out of anything, and Apple remembers my details anyway, so if I get logged out (eg of banking) it's just a case of using fingerprint login to get back in. Usually, GN stays logged in, but it didn't today, for some reason.

I can't imagine that anyone would want to sneak into the house, unlock my laptop, find GN in my saved sites and post pretending to be me; but next time I say something daft I'll remember to use that as an excuse?

I never log out so no problems

it's not like banking or payment sites
They log you out automatically if there has been no activity after a set amount of time.

unless you are worried that someone might come along and see what you have been posting...
welbeck you never know

I never log off anything that I use regularly, why would you ?

yes, i was wondering that. i never log out.

I don't understand why others don't log off.

Do you not log out of other sites either?

I never log off Callistamo why would you ?

How do you clear all your cookies?
I think I’ve missed something!

Me too Willow!

I don't have to log in even when I haven't been on here for ages. But I use Gransnet on my phone

I use Gransnet on phone, laptop and iPad. I never have to log in - probably chose option 'keep me logged in' long ago.

I log off every day - I thought everyone did that

I don’t log on only if I ve cleared my cookies

same here, one of the chief reasons why my computer runs so slow is that it is such a bother when you clear all your cookies and then can't remember log in details.

Have you got the privacy setting on, so your net surfing can’t be tracked?

Think I've only had to log in once this year.

I haven't had to log in for ages. Probably the cache as Elizabeth says.

Is your cache set to clear at certain times? I only have to log in after clearing the cache, mine is not set to clear automatically.
