Personally I wouldn’t touch a Spanish Bank, they are expensive and generally inefficient and unhelpful (look at the google reviews they are both laughable and accurate). Your gestor is probably getting a kick back!

I am currently using Wise and although there are the odd foible due to it being a Belgian Bank......if you get embroiled in a Spanish Bank, it is like swimming in treacle trying to escape!

Thanks.
I’m leaning towards Wise though they say they are not a Bank and there is a maximum of around £15k that can be held there. Perhaps that is why Spanish banks refuse setting up a direct debit with Wise … although “ Merchants are required by EU law to accept IBANs from other members of the European Economic Area (EEA)”
