It's time to renew my car insurance - so going through my junk mail this
morning gave me some pointers to try.

Went to the LloydsTSB site (which works fine for personal banking using
OSX and Safari), only to be told that I'm using an unsupported browser.

Went in to the Debug menu, told Safari to identify itself as MSIE6, and,
surprise, it works.

What _are_ these people playing at?

I get exactly the same at Abbey. Patronising gits.

IME the folks who choose something a little different are usually more
likely to know what its capabilities are; it's the clueless ones with
"supported" browsers, but several patches out-of-date, they should be
more worried about!
