Cheryl and all, I used an existing account and was able to sign in and view data etc. I did not try to pay any bills or set up a new payee or anything like that. I also had some issues with getting in and the states and all and it seems that for some obsucre reason, you are presented with different interfaces when you log in. One thing I did do is set cookies to be accepted. The second time I logged in, I did not get the state requirement. Also, I discovered that there is a sign on link on the page with the states which takes you to the sign on form bypassing the state thing. I hope this helps. Once I went to the sign on form, I just signed in as usual. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cheryl Homiak" <chomiak@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: "speakup" <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Thursday, February 05, 2004 12:22 PM Subject: BOA online not so straightforward Well, there are more problems--maybe. Has anybody actually gotten as far as USING BOA online? I just went through the enrollment, to find out I'd already been enrolled during the appliction process apparently. so went to online banking. First, I got a message that said online banking was currently unavailable and to try again later. Below that it gave me a link to sign in for a state other than null. By the way, the second time I tried this the link said "state other than california. so I entered on that, and found in the state selection box it already has me as Virginia (don't ask me why they assigned me as virginia; don't know how they do people that don't actually have a bank in their state). Entered on the link to continue and had to sign in again. from there I was taken to the User agreement; by the way had to use "L' in the browser to really get full sight of the links; no path that I could find out of this agreement. since I already checked an agreement box in the enrollment part, I don't think I had to accept it again to continue; there was supposed to be a box for "I don't agree" which I didn't see, and I noticed javascript on some links. Haven't tried calling to confirm what's going on yet, but either online banking is down or we still can't do a blessed thing with it!!! Links the chain has a way to change user agent. I really like lynx better, but will try anything at this point. So I did this in the links.cfg. You only get so far with that, and then you get to a screen that asks youto select your state, and you just keep getting that screen over and over because apparently the your selection doesn't go through. However, while it doesn't really help, you get a lot of information on the screens using links that you don't get with the cat. Can anybody hear me screaming!!!!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! -- Cheryl _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup at braille.uwo.ca http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup
