HSBC Internet Banking + Safari
 

Anyone else here use HSBC internet banking on a mac??

I don't seem to be able to logon using safari- i did speak to hsbc technical support but the guy i spoke to was absolutely useless- didn't know what i meant by safari and said it must be a problem with my ISP :rolleyes: He then informed me that it was working fine from his pc, but couldn't tell me which browser he was using... When i told him it wasn't my connection because i work for my ISP and it works fine from my XP machine in IE and FF, and FF on both my macs but not safari the line mysteriously went dead! :dozey:

All i wanted to know is whether HSBC internet banking is for some reason not compatible with safari....

anyone here that can try it for me please :)

Yes, I have this problem as well. Sometimes it works, sometime it doesn't. Recently I have had a much higher success rate though. It keeps saying network connection reset.

Keep trying and it will work, i think apple know about this problem. The current safari is unstable and has many of these errors. Hopefully it will be repaired in 10.4.2

Thanks for the info :)

I don't remember if there were problems on 10.3.9... but i don't want to roll back one of my machines to find out because i love the dashboard :p:

Really? I am more in love with spotlight. Firefox works fine, and like I said Safari has been working for me sometimes. Just now in fact! :D

Yep my dashboard is covered in stickies cos then i stand a chance of remembering half of the things i need to do :dunce: and it saves cluttering my desktop :) Spotlight is handy, but i organise all of my files into folders so i don't use it too much.

I haven't installed FF on this mac yet, but was working fine on the mini. I haven't seen the error from safari on any other pages, but i haven't managed to get hsbc working at all... ho hum! roll on 10.4.2 :p:

I use dashboard for little notes (aka Log in for HSBC :p:) But i find its quite ram hungry. I also have wikipedia widget, itunes lyrics, converter and time to america. Spotlight is handy for opening applications that are not on dock and finding information (you know it searches within files as well?)

HSBC & Safari works here at the mo
