Just something random (because I find it so useful and efficient) is the payment system for utilities or any other type of bills. When you receive your electricity bill for example, you simply tear off the little slip and put it in the ATM, the money is deducted from you account and you get a receipt...how easy is that?!
I really wish SA would implement this system, as well as bank books. At first I thought having a bank book was very old school, but then I realized how useful it is. You can use a bank book at the ATM instead of using your card, and when you do this it automatically updates your book - listing all your transactions. It's way better than drawing a statement and receiving a piece of paper that will just get lost amongst all the other papers in your bag.
