Hello David, I too had a problem this week with bank transfers to a nominated account (RABO/Macquarie Bank) which I have been doing for many years. I am using Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.10. The transfers would not go through using Safari. I only use Safari - but tried using Firefox and t

Hi David, The highest Safari level for 10.6.8 is the 5.1.10 that you are on. What it means is amongst other things they cannot be sure of the security aspect. As apple are no longer supporting Snow Leopard. Cheers, Ronni > On 24 Oct 2014, at 2:55 pm, David Noel wrote: > > Yes, I'm using Sa
