Safari User Agent and unsupported websites...
Authored by: kray on Mar 25, '04 02:24:01PM

Citibank's mastercard site and banking sites are two totally different beasts. I've been complaining to Citibank for YEARS about this problem. My statement, sitting on a Mac or Linux ... has been ANYTHING but IE. Heck, as IT ADMIN I've always blocked and disallowed IE usage on ANY corporate systems for (now) obvious security reasons. Of course today no new systems are allowed to be Windows and are either a Mac or Linux. :)

The sad thing about Citibank is -- their site stinks, is laggy, and has a tendency to "hang up" on you. It's not my Internet connection -- which is a 10Mbit wireless uplink at 5Ghz which also now serves my home phone line(s) via VoIP (thanks to number portability ... finally :). The really sad part? Citibank's is one of the best I've seen (yet).

PS: Citibank's web site won't even work with IE made for OS X... Good luck trying to get Netscape 4.79 for OS X. About once a quarter I send off a complaint to them electronically and always have a chat with whatever branch manager is available when I need to see a live person. They do NOT get "it" yet.

Hey! I like citi's (banking) website. I just use Firefox for it. Once I believe I got Safari to work (by spoofing my UA) but Firefox works flawlessly.

It has a lot of useful functionality that mostly make up for having to fire up Firefox. It would have to literally require me to use Mac-IE or Windows before I'd give up Citibank.
