Citibank infuriating its customers with Linux-hostile site
,----[ Quote ]
| So you use that web browser to fill the application for a credit card at
| Citibank, and finally receive it. But when you start using that credit card
| and want to check you card usage on-line, the system won't work when accessed
| with Linux. That's exactly what has got Linux users furious at the banking
| giant.
|
| Jason Antman, a techie and IT major at Rutgers University in New Jersey, got
| furious last week after realising that getting a card from Citibank using a
| Firefox is as easy as a walk in the park, but then checking his card activity
| on CitiCards.com using the open sauce browser was, well, as hard as a stone.

Bank of America recently fixed it. Citibank is likely next.

| I hope they hear from enough people to take note. I think the Americans with
