Please have a read of:

Rule 24 - No Ball. Section 6.
I'm sure over the years, many runs have either been added or missed because people don't understand the rules...or bowlers have got away with murder.
My understanding was 1 to no-balls, 4 to leg byes...??
woulda thought so too
13. Runs resulting from a No ball - how scored
The one run penalty for a No ball shall be scored as a No ball extra. If other penalty runs have been awarded to either side, these shall be scored as in Law 42.17 (Penalty runs). Any runs completed by the batsmen or a boundary allowance shall be credited to the striker if the ball has been struck by the bat; otherwise they also shall be scored as No ball extras.
Apart from any award of a 5 run penalty, all runs resulting from a No ball, whether as No ball extras or credited to the striker, shall be debited against the bowler
