I received a letter this morning from the Cooperative Bank about a Card Reader I will be receiving for my Current Account.
A quick look at their web site reveals they only support Windows and Mac.

I phoned their Technical Helpline and said I use Ubuntu can I still use the Card Reader. The gentleman said NO your operating system is not supported. I then said as an Ethical Bank I am horrified that you do not support open source software. The gentleman than changed tack and said unoffically it will work with Linux.
Anyone with a Cooperative Bank Account may like to ring the Technical Helpline to complain. If enough people complain they may support Linux.
As people in the UK are aware it is an Ethical Bank and is suppose to have Ethical Standards. As it is suppose to be an Ethical Bank this is not really acceptable.
Their Technical Helpline is 0870 600 0328. Their email address is ibis@co-operativebank.co.uk. You do NOT need your bank details etc to raise a technical query with them.
