My favorite experience was trying to file taxes on Linux in Germany.
Turns out the backend on ELSTER had written code that if Chrome and Linux then store to test account. It wasn't possible to file taxes on Linux for over 6 months until they fixed it when they went online as a mandatory state-funded web service. I can't even comprehend who writes code like that.
Took me also a very long while to explain to the BKA that I did not try to hack them, and that they are just very incompetent people working at DATEV.
It sounds like the easiest solution would be to install another browser (e.g. Firefox) until they fixed the issue. If it is only the combination of Chrome and Linux that is the problem, that is.
