You will know the status of each check by the appearance of one of these 2 icons. In the event you failed one or more of the checks there should be additional information listed next to the icon. Below, we outline what it checks, how it affects your experience, and how to resolve any issues you may encounter.

Browser Check - checks to see the type and version of your browser and whether it is validated for use with BbVista.

Problems? If you fail this check, please refer to our list of validated browsers. You might be able to continue using your current browser, however, the Help Desk will not support any browser that is not on this list.
