@LucaScorpion I'm glad you caught that! I gave them the benefit of the doubt - maybe they set the password, but it is still stored encrypted (so if I change it they can't see it).
Went on the system and change the password. They immediately auto-emailed me a 'reminder' of the password I just set... I should have known...
Luckily they do not store sensitive data but it's still time I put my foot down so we are moving it in-house.

"Download this PDF for more information!"
Erm... ok.
In the (20 page) PDF: "Email this address@example.com to get the URL!"
ffs ok
email: "Thank you for emailing us, you username is benoliver999, your password is 'passow0rd' and the url is in this attached PDF

(50 page) PDF: "Remember to disable pop up blocker, ad-block and to install Flash"
Today I have started building my own version of this product so we can stop using these idiots.
As an aside, the username 'admin' also had a password of 'passow0rd'...
