My bank doesn't allow access through a browser. It has to be the app or else you have to travel to their HQ in person (I guess) and close your account.


Can I ask what bank and why on Earth you continue to give them your business?

I guess I'm unusual in that I've been using an "online" only bank for 20 years (back then it wasn't so online... I had a stack of UPS overnight envelopes for check deposits), but I cannot imagine patronizing a bank that won't let me log in and do basically anything from a browser.


In quite a few Asian countries there are no banks left that don't force you to use their apps. There is not other option.


I have never seen a bank that allows mobile deposits from a browser. I have always seen it require an app.


What a terrible bank though.


do they still allow you to download your transactions to your phone and get them to your pc that way? just curious, I'd be screwed, I don't know how to install apps on my phone.
