Still better than my bank (one of Spain's biggest) that requires your password to be 8 (not less, not more) digits.

HSBC in France have the same, it's a huge motivator for me to switch away.

May I know why? It's a problem if there is no 2FA but I doubt HSBC won't have 2FA and this password requirements.

The bank I'm using has 2FA for all actions performed in the website, so that's my guess as to why they don't prioritize fixing the lame password requirement.

[jesterson]

Exactly. 2FA is much more important than complicated password (not that I'm advocating to have a guessable one here), altogether providing acceptable level of security.

Use "password" - eight letters and it's English and so should be safe on a Spanish site.

You missed that we're only allowed to use digits/numbers. No letters!
