I bank with Bankia and they have started to deduct 10euro from any amount transferred from the UK, their excuse is that the UK is leaving the EU and they no longer recognise sterling as an EU currency. Is anyone one else experiencing the same problem?

Thanks and stay safe

Never heard such a load of rubbish from Bankia !!

'they no longer recognise sterling as an EU currency' ??

Do like I did & vote with your feet............

I use Transferwise for my Spanish direct debits & Cajamar Wefferrent account as a fee free Spanish bank account.

Search on this forum for 'banking' there is lots of info there.
