Banking sites wont work with cross-site tracking enabled

I have tried 3 banks and none will allow you to use their Bill-Pay on safari if cross-site tracking is enabled.

Talked to the banks and they said it was a 3rd party product used by most banks and they can't change anything. I think its Netteller and/or Easy Check (Maybe EZCheck).


I am not sure if apple is in the wrong or the company but they need to get together and fix this.


Sample errors:

"Your browser cookies are disabled. Enable them now and revisit your bill pay site or click here for instructions to enable cookies."

Using a Bank's App and Not Using Safari:

Contact your Bank. Ask them if they have their own app that you should be using. Also, note that not all sites are compatible with Safari - typically, you see that with educational institutions (i.e. colleges) and financial institutions (i.e. banks).

[...]I have contacted my bank many times. The site is compatible with safari but you have to disable cross-site Tracking to get them to work. (See post) Was not an issue till a few weeks ago."

Few Thoughts:


A. Ask the Banks About This?

Have the Banks said if Cross-Tracking works?


B. Enable JavaScript:

Also, make just that JavaScript is enabled. Seeing the .js tells me that JavaScript may be getting in the way here. See if JavaScript has been disabled. Go Here: Change Security preferences in Safari on Mac - Apple Support


C. Any Security Software Installed?

If you have any Secure Software is installed, then uninstall it. Use the uninstaller, and get it directly from the manufacturer's Web site and nowhere else.
