One of the four major banks in Australia used to limit passwords to 6 characters. No more, no less. Exactly 6. They were case insensitive, too. I think they may actually still do that.
One of the other banks used to silently truncate passwords (to 12 characters if I remember correctly). They removed the truncation one day, and there were so many issues because people who had passwords longer than 12 characters couldn’t log in unless they knew to only enter the first 12 characters of it. It was a mess. Their phone support had a recorded message saying to only enter the first 12 characters if you have trouble logging in.
