Thirty Three Characters? I'd go mad, mad I tell you, stark staring MAD if I had to type 33 characters every time!
Mine is 15 & I seem to have to type it in 50 times a day.
M work one is 34 long, so I tend to use my home one if I have to register something, even for work.

Chrome autofills it for me after the first couple of characters, so it's no hassle at all.

That's even more fun when it's your street address that's "too long".
Or if they pretend to ship anywhere but then only accept US ZIP codes.

Then there's the b'tards who think mine isn't long enough and keep offering to lengthen it.
They should use some kind of validation first. It's not like anyone complained... mumble mumble...

No you don't. You just told us it was too long.

I don't think it's Tesco that are sending "those" emails...

Give it 5 years and I'm sure they would have muscled in on that market. They already have the slogan "Every little helps"

I run into that a lot. 
The worst is when I try to input my address to my bank and they ask for a US Zip code and US State. I don't live in the US and cannot input my address. I have to call them and have someone override the system.

My reply bored me so I deleted it and put this instead.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

That's some world class multi-dimensional derp right there.
Sounds like they don't want your money, and should be given directions to a suitable rope.

I had the same problem, but it was even worse because I use smart hub[^] for my internet connection. It is either that or unreliable dial-up.
I installed a cell booster kit and now I have a super strong signal inside my house. It consists of an internal and an external antenna with a signal booster in between them.

Fortunately, I have broadband (albeit only ~4Mbps) via my landline, so I'm fine with the mobile not working!

O.....K.....
Not really sure what to do about that... I guess imitation is the sincerest form of flattery and all that, and it didn't take me too long to create...but it is plagiarism of a sort...Nah, leave him be, I'm not worried about it unless he starts making money! (Then I want commision, and we can start discussing percentages)

It is generally a good idea not to use the same avitar when you create a sock puppet accout to upvote your own posts. 
It was broke, so I fixed it.
