  1. Anyone tried Citibank's new F/I service? by jdiggans · · Score: 1 · on What's the Best Online Financial Solution?

    Citibank now has their own sort of 'internet bank' called Citi-f/i ... I received a flyer in the mail the other day and have been meaning to check it out. From the glossy brochure it seems there are no fees and the minimum balance is an entire dollar ... sounds nearly too good to be true (and I'm betting it is). They dont have ATM's in my area but they do offer to reimburse the 'other bank's' service charges on four withdrawls a month. If your account balance is over $10,000, they will reimburse you for ANY and all withdrawls from enemy ATM's. Anyone have more info/experience with this bank than I?

    fyi ... I just visited the site to make sure I had the url correct and guess what, no unix support of any flavor!
    There goes that idea ... Citi F/I

    Click here and access the site. The JavaScript trap is just on the front page.

    I was able to browse the www.citifi.com site after getting the denial page by simply clicking the "About Citi f/i" link.

    It seems the real reason they only support the M$ and Mac OS's is the lack of financial software(Quicken or M$ Money) for other OS's .

    Perhaps, after reviewing the Linux Advocacy HOWTO, a few friendly suggestions to INTUIT would help.

    Something tells me M$ wouldn't be very interested.

  4. This isnt right... by iCEBaLM · · Score: 5 · on Citifi.com Denies Alternate Browser Access
    I just checked it out, try this guys...

    Turn on cookies and go to www.citifi.com and you'll get the lame "We dont support anything but windows or macos, go away" message. Then click on "About Citifi" at the bottom, suddenly you get access to the navigation bar at the left, and the one at the top right, which offers you to check out their entire website, INCLUDING:

    A Home link which takes you to their main page

    A Products and Services page

    A Signup to be come a new member page

    And to even "sign in" to your account

    (Direct Links not included because their site runs on https with cookies and it seems without seeing the "disclamer" that your OS isn't supported, it does not work.)

    And more, it looks like you can navagate the ENTIRE page REGARDLESS that it says you're unsupported.

    So the 64 thousand dollar question is.....

    Why have the disclamer that non-Windows and non-MacOS users are unsupported if they can, even with the disclamer page, navigate the entire site?

  5. Citibank's citifi.com also blocking linux users by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on Yahoo Keeps Offering Real; Fox Now Allows Linux

    I wanted to open account at Citibank's citifi but they wont let me in using linux. Too bad because it actually looks like they offer some really cool services. Their setup looks a little harder to bypass than just disabling javascript. If anyone has any luck getting through please post it here.
