Chase Bank May Drop Support of Chrome, Opera

Posted by kdawson on from the chasing-last-century's-technology dept.

mwandaw writes "Banking giant JPMorgan Chase may drop support of some popular browsers because they do not 'all offer the minimum levels of security that we require while others may not perform well with our site.' After July 18 you may not be able to access the website with a browser that they do not support. The list of browsers they currently support seems outdated: Internet Explorer 6.0 and higher, Firefox 2.0 and higher, and Safari 3.0 and higher (for Macs only). With usage of IE6 plummeting and concerns about its security well known, the inclusion of that browser seems suspect. On the other extreme, rising star Chrome appears to be left out, too. What does Google think of that?"

    I've noticed recently that the "Verified by VISA" thing[1] no longer works in Opera. I've tried to use at play.com, eastcoast.co.uk and flybe.com this weekend, and each time had to go back to Firefox.

    [1] The thing where an iframe from Visa within a shopping site asks for digits from your password. I.e. exactly what your bank tells you not to do (put your banking password into any other website) must be done. Stupid system.
