Does it work with a clean profile <http://pimpmycamino.com/parts/troubleshoot-camino>, or failing that, when spoofing as Firfefox <http://pimpmycamino.com/parts/user-agent>?

Works great using 1.5 here, even though my account wasn't opened in California. No spoofing involved. 

There are lots of reasons I don't like Bank of America, but they -- and Fleet before them -- worked fine with Camino for everything I've ever done there.

Julius -- is this a certain type of banking (i.e., credit card, bank accounts, investment) or does it not work for *anything*? Reason I ask is because Citibank is pretty notorious for not working with Camino on their investment side, but the bank account and credit card sites work fine. I suppose this could be the same situation, although it would be the first report we've had of it at BoA.

This is their California Online Banking site. Checking, savings accounts, online bill payments, transfers, etc. After reading this and Stuart Morgan‘s response, I tried logging in again. Worked fine. Don’t know why, although I attempted this multiple times the other day unsuccessfully. Thanks for the feedback.

Regards,
Julius

WORKSFORME, since it wasn't a code change that fixed this.

Glad to hear it's working, and thanks for getting back to us!
