Clalit members: please contact Clalit and demand non_IE support!

2009-07-08 Thread Dotan Cohen
List members who belong to Clalit, please contact the company and demand that they support non-IE browsers. As it is, we cannot use the site in Linux. I need to check my lab results online, and cannot do that! The phone number is *2700, then 1 for Hebrew and 7 for Clalit Online support. Thanks! -

Bugging the poor support person is useless, if anything you should figure out who is responsible for the klalit computer systems and talk to him/her. Also since less than 1% of people use linux in Israel you might try something a bit more convincing. Such as giving the more popular osx or browsing
