Quite. Makes you want to scream sometimes... Hello!!? Wakeup!!
It's the height of ignorance to operate as if only one browser was in use.
I also think it's plain stupid and arrogant to think all are happy to use one
specific browser. Probably some idiot project manager.
The only other reason would be limited budget, though one has a hard time to
think that would be the case with a company the size of Verizon.
I subscribe to sending informative emails to such companies. Cc sales and
marketing of lost sales. (Usually they don't have very much feedback so a
relative small number of emails will be perceived as a higher real number.)
