The introduction of Chip and PIN was never to benefit the customer directly, it was to try and shift the emphasis of blame away from the bank.

I saw a few weeks ago about the guys from Cambridge University who demonstrated what the banks said could not be done by reading data from a chip using a modified common card terminal.
