My sincere gratitude to all those who were willing to spare both their time and experience and offer me some advice both inside this thread as by email sent directly to me.


A brief update for those interested :


1st : I did get an XML-based open-source copy of the form in question from my country's federal department for Economic Affairs. A polite request was sufficient for them to convert the MS Word document on my behalf. That is something which pleasantly surprised me allthough I was already hoping for it.


2nd : After informing my savings-bank that I regretted this situation but felt they left me with no other option than to register a complaint with both my country's federal department for Economic Affairs and -I'll attempt a translation here- the Commission for the Supervision of the Banking Industry, they suddenly did decide to remove the incorrect information that was visible on browsers without Adobe Flash Player.

This is a situation I find acceptable. As I stated in my very first mail to them I would obviously prefer having the correct information visible to all users but essential was not being confronted with incorrect interest-rates if you choose not to use Flash Player. (rather no info than false info)


So thank you all once again in helping me convince them to address this issue.



Kind Regards,


Joris Van Herzele
