When you go to logon https://home.americanexpress.com/home/au/home_c.shtml I note that there is now a 'Remember me' option. I don't recall that being there a few days ago......

    I've been using auto-complete for ages, but I do believe this is something new.

    Re: Remember me?

    Nup, seems new to me.

    I wonder if it is actually useful - after all, not many internet banking sites offer a facility to "remember you", presumably for obvious security reasons.

    Well, it's only the username it's remembering. I like how it shows the first 3 letters but then ***'s out the rest.

    Re: Remember me?

    I've noticed it and been using it for about the last 2 months, but don't recall it before then.

    I use the low bandwidth version of the logon page (no flash, very quick to load) and the Remember Me check box only appeared a day ago. I didn't even notice it until I noticed there were no dots appearing in the password field (the tab key had only taken me to the box).

    It wont be much use to me unless I change the cookie manager options from session only for the site.

    Re: Remember me?

    The past few days I keep being unable to login from the first page, it redirects me to a page as if I've put my password in incorrectly and I'm then able to login from there.

    I can't seem to get to ae.com.au at all at the moment, so can't test in IE.

    Edit: just tried in IE as ae.com.au is working again now, and worked from the first page... odd.
