I'm a UK resident with a property in Spain.
Sabadell told me due to their charging structure changes that I now have to pay 40 euro per quarter. Started at 60 euro a quarter then reduced to 40 euro a quarter.
I need a euro account that will allow me to transfer my Sabadell account to including my DDs for water, electric, broadband etc.
I need to be able to make payments into the Spanish account to keep it topped up.
I would like to be able to withdraw euros from a cash machine.
I'm happy for the account to be online only.
All free  of charge.
Anyone recommend an account that would fit my requirements?

Hi Jeffers,

Have you asked them about their "Expansion Account". If you agree to pay so much each month into the account it is free of charges.

That's the account I had, but Sabadell change the rules, you now have to have three products to get free banking
