thanks mixture. My bank does have an App for banking but it can only be installed on one device, I already have the app on my mobile phone. The App is required to generate a fresh code number for each transaction/log-in irrespective of which machine is used to log in from.
further info:
I have been trying to log in through a "bookmarked" log in page, which always fails. If I go back to gurgle for the bank, select the home page, select "access full site" (it knows I am on a device that could use an App), select Internet Banking option and use the log in screen it then provides (which looks exactly the same as the bookmarked page) then everything works properly.
I don't understand this but at least I have a work around.
