I use Transferwise (now called Wise) all the time for one off transfers to my Sabadell account, but you should bear in mind that although Wise is authorised by the FCA, it is not part of the FSCS (Financial Services compensation scheme). Wise has instead what it calls safeguarding, where your money is ring fenced within financial institutions or banks. If the financial institution or bank went bust (at one time seemed impossible) with your money in it, you lose your money.

Hi Thanks for your information I thought they may have been Covered.May have to enquire with the banks up Sucina to see if they do free banking and they switch Ddr for you.

The Cajamar Wefferent account is the one you want if you really want a Spanish bank account.

It can only be opened in a branch.

Use the search facility at the top of this page for 'Banking' or 'Free Banking'.

Lots of info there.
