OK, I'll admit it, I got sucked in!

Bought the software (got the $99 "we've got some damaged copies" special) and spent an hour or 2 plugging in the transactions from our mortgage accounts, offset account, interest rate changes, etc.
To find that our bank is pretty much charging what they should be (I say "pretty much", because I found a 32c credit here, and a $1 discrepancy there - not enough to warrant trying to argue for the refund they guarantee).
Anyway... has anyone else succumbed to the "slick" marketing and doubts that the banks may make mistakes, bought the software (or done their own analysis) and found that their bank does/doesn't make mistakes?
(PS. In a previous life, my wife worked for a bank, starts with N ends with B, in testing new products, and so she knew that the bank software often had bugs in it.)
