During set-up you will create your
email account. The password you
need to create when setting up your
email doubles as your online account
management password, so it’s a
good idea to write it down and keep
it somewhere safe.
As part of this process, you’ll also
create a ‘secret question’ which will
allow you to reset your password if
you need to change it at a later date.
How to select a password
• Your password must be between
6 and 10 characters long.
• The first character must be a letter.
• It must include numbers as well
as letters.
• The password is case sensitive.
That means it can have both upper
and lower case characters, so ‘a’
is different to ‘A’.
• To improve security, you should
ideally add 3 numbers to the end
of your password.
Examples of how to
set your password
