Non resident banking fees - Page 2

Direct debits to electric and water and internet no charge. I transfer money using transferwise which has no charge by la Caixa  

Annual Non Resident fee which I think was another 20 or so. 

Makes sense to join a bank near you. As other banks will charge you for ATM withdrawals. 

Catzooo thks a lot travel wise is the firm I am thinking of using la caixa dont seem too bad really so theres a good chance I will use them also thks for the advice 

Take a look at Santander 123 account

I’ve been with them for just over a year with no problems. 

Works the same as the U.K. just with slight differences in the maximum amount you can earn on. 

No charges if you deposit €600 a month and have the direct debits going out each month. 

Thks martin even for non resident like me also martin is there many fees pls I could transfer money over to the account thks steve

Feel Happy and secured with Sabadell bank. Non resident fees 30 euros per quarter. Have used them for 2 years.  Easy online banking. Even have our home owners insurance with them.  So far so good. Good luck.

We live here but classed as non resident. Only thing we didn’t qualify was for the shares 

If you have direct debits and deposit €600 a month there’s no charges and you get interest on what you have in your account each month. 

We also got our private medical insurance through them too which was a great deal. 

Pop in and have a chat with Maria who speaks perfect English I definitely can recommend santander. 

Martin thks im with santander in england it sounds ok.but sticking in 600 per month is a lot as I wont be living there I wonder if I can draw 600 out and then pay it .I do that in england in one of my accounts 

We bought a property last November. Our solicitor opened a bank account for us with caja rural. I was quite surprised by all the bank charges, given that he told us there would be very small charges with the account. I guess it depends what you call small. I think we are lucky in the uk! caja rural charge 18 euros 1/4 and 18 euros annually for the debit cards. You need a pension or salary going into the account monthly to avoid paying the quarterly 18 euro fee. Not possible as we are non residents. 

Joolz55 thks what people are telling me the  fees are roughly the same about 100 euros a year I didnt relise that fees would be involved I know now I guess I got to take it on the chin cheers steve

Hello savcrew yes utility bills generally come out of your bank account electric water maybe community fees cheers steve
