I think they made font bigger for elderly.
Good try..but color selection of contrast sucks

i totally agree with you on the colour selection. one example is the entry rows in the bank account.. they want it to have alternate colours between each row (eg. white and then grey), but the grey can hardly be seen!

I found the new interface much better with big icons. I have to admit I mostly use tablets nowadays.

I dunno if you use a lot of software or not but the new website is definitely not user friendly, the whole interface maybe more suitable to touchscreen but even that, it's horrendous to navigate to the things you want.

I myself uses a whole spectrum of softwares and has no less than 5 different bank accounts, OCBC has the best UI of them. The software I interact with on a daily basis is After effects, Photoshop, 3ds max, Zbrush. Photoshop is almost the most simple of them all.

One doesn't design a website to be more difficult to find things than before.
Try looking for the daily$... I just wanna see how much I have, cannot find it... Last time it was just at the home screen right hand side.

Now to find this daily$ you have to go to your credit card, go to statement, go to the dropdown of statement type, look for cash rebate unbilled to see how much daily$ you have.

Yes, I have used those and more. I work using web frameworks almost everyday and scripts are very often used. Those functions are easier to implement than perhaps using those that you mentioned. It's basically aesthetics against functionality and most companies go for latter.

The budget could also be one issue, your method being more expensive. Some of my clients also ask big buttons and text and many of them are middle-aged.

Still, I cannot disagree that it's poorly optimized and should be vastly improved. The point I'm trying to make is that I can make do with this and understand why the bank is designing it such a way.

But that's just my opinion. It's not something I'm forcing on anyone here. :)
