Right, but they can change those unilaterally whenever they feel like it. Multiple times a year I'll get an updated terms of service document from this or that bank.

So you can point to a bank's a customer agreement that is meaningfully different in this aspect compared to federal requirements for credit cards, then?

Or maybe you're just spilling FUD?

Just because a thing can change, doesn't mean that it will. (It doesn't even mean that it has ever changed.)
