Lloyds TSB's online banking system shows no love for Firefox

Oh the delights of Windoze...

...I've just checked mine using Firefox on Ubuntu with no issues whatsoever. Paris cos their policies on compatibility are clearly lucid and well thought out...

Reg readers bring down HMRC website

Online, schmonline...

I tried to file online too. This was after requesting paper forms from the nice woman on the phone. She was capable of sending me my UTR but apparently the forms were one leap too far for her. So I tried to file online...

On 20th January it was 'too late' to register for online filing because they need to snail mail you a password! Is it just me or does that not quite add up? As a result I had to print off the forms from the site using my inkjet and then pray that my completed form did not get wet!

What a fantastic use of IT! I have never seen such comprehensive service and ease of use! All online services should take a leaf from HMRC.

I'll get my coat (after I've had a little lie down).
