Not even Edge is acceptable. Then they throw in Java applets to broaden the attack surface.

Shinsei bank in Japan requires IE (not edge) to use online banking. Macs aren't supported.

  This seems to be the case for most banks in Japan. Also a lot of government services. Last year I ended up posting some documents to immigration because I could not get their online form to work.

    Most JP banks I’ve used work fine with any browser - I use my UFJ account regularly in Safari, etc. Shinsei is just a crap bank, and IIRC Mizuho can be a PITA depending on what you’re trying to do.

    I remember, for immigration process, having to use IE to download a PDF form and install Adobe Reader to open it. Strangely enough, it also had to be opened on a desktop machine, laptops are NG.

  I am able to load Shinsei in Chrome earlier this year, was this a recent change? Do you mean banking or another service?

  That is not true, I am able to use Shinsei on Mac with Firefox just fine.

    Shinsei corporate account or personal? Different systems

I can not use the Croatian government website,[1] where one can buy a fishing licence, with anything other than IE. Despite the website insinuating that other browsers will work, if I just enable cookies (which I have!), only IE is successful.
