In the US, the laws will probably vary by state when it comes to retail banking. But I'm sure you are right that many laws require updating. Still no matter what the technology is, if the consumer cannot access his money, send a transfer, etc., then I think the bank could be so ordered by the court. But it would never get that far because the banks wouldn't shut people out like United and Starwood do. IMHO.
