One of the reasons I gave up with Barclays Bank share dealing service. 
"Update your browser"....

It worked on an ancient firefox in an XP virtual machine though.

There is I suspect something that uses javascript to interrogate the 
operating system to find out what platform you are running that goes 
something like this

switch (detected OS)
  case Windersl...blah
  case OSx...blah
  case IOS...blah
  case android ...blah
  default, "update your browser" and fuck off.

And, since these days all websites are written using someone else's 
toolset, and in javascript. the numpties who put it together have no 
idea how to fix it anyway,.
