Unfortunately, this problem is getting worse not better. The trend is to design for the eye. I’ve been told repeatedly that there must be something wrong with my computer (or me) since the person at the bank can see everything on her screen.
You can explain, you can describe how simple the solution is, you can point out the legal requirements to have an accessible site. They don’t listen or care. Every banking site I use has become less accessible every time they make improvements to the site. Not that it helps at present, but there has been at least one court decision saying that online businesses have to follow the same accessibility laws as businesses that deal directly with people. With multiple programmers working on a site, similar functions are coded differently. The fact that we can access part of the site is taken as proof the problem is on our end and we continue to be ignored. At least my banks will waive the charges for functions they have to perform due to inaccessibility problems.

It is Arrowhead Credit Union. I did send a letter to the corporate office. They should receive that letter today. I did talk with someone again yesterday. She is supposed to call me Frieday to see if this can be resolved.

Here are some other things you might want to do: 1) post a negative review in the app store. 2) Do likewise on Applevis. 3) See if top brass at the bank in question have a social media presence a la Twitter, Facebook et cetera and contact them that way. Just some thoughts... Tom On Dec 14, 2017, at 5:31 AM, Anthony Vece <[email protected]> wrote: At the bottom of the website their should be a link for feedback. Use it.

Actually this app works mostly great, accept when it comes to paying my bills. I can set up the payment for each of my bills, but cannot choose a date. The date must be chosen or it won’t go forward. The part to select the date is in a grid format. Voice Over will read across the calendar, (days of the week), but in the columns is unable to read the date. Anyway, I finally got ahold of someone who talks like they might fix it. I’m asking them to have it default to the next business day and that will be fine for me. Any suggestions where I could get help for this. Either technology wise or legal wise?
