No Student loans with Chrome or Safari
You can use Firefox, or Internet Explorer (I checked), but not Safari or Chrome, to sign into the Studentloans.gov website. I don't know why.

Don't get me started on the new website. It has caused more problems as they work out the bugs. This has been a big headache for me the past week.
BUT, when it's running it's really so much better for students than the old sites. It took mandating everyone go to direct lending for them to give it the attention it needed, but it's really nice, when it's working. I didn't know about the browser issue. Thanks for the info, I might need to know that!

Ha ha ha. Because, no matter how cool and trendy and hip you want to act, Internet Explorer by Microsoft is how you do any kind of serious business. Have fun whining about your superior web browsers that the cool kids use!

Humorously enough, back when I upgraded to IE 8, my (rather small) mortgage company's website stopped working. I called them, and they confirmed that yes, the site wasn't coded properly to work in 8.

Yah, chrome denied me text edits the other day. Fail. I was pretty happy with it, and then....Epic Fail. At work.

Excellent! Now that I've switched to Chrome I can stop paying my student loans?
Righteous. Srsly, though. Do I really have to repay those loans?

The last time I allowed IE to update, it corrupted my computer.
