The Banking code of conduct

The banks in South Africa adheres (or so they say) to the banking code of conduct of The Banking association of South Africa.
 Full details available here:  http://www.banking.org.za/consumer_info/code_of_banking/code_of_banking.aspx

Does this give clients a warm and fuzzy feeling ?  Of course !  They just do not know that this is all a big BS story.  It is Bull and the banks know it !

THE following has been copied from the introduction of the Code :

None of the provisions of this Code:
will be legally binding in any court of law;
may be used to influence the interpretation of the legal relationship between you and your bank;
will give rise to a trade custom or tacit contract or otherwise between you and your bank.

Still feeling warm and fuzzy ?  If you do it is caused by the wool that has been pulled over your eyes.
