Does anyone know of any spanish accounts that you can open without putting in 1000 euros or something like that?

Thanks

When Iberian International frogmarched prospective buyers on our inspection trip into one of Cambank's Torrevieja branches) to open accounts many only had a few spare euros as they were not expecting this to happen & I know friends opened with 10 maybe 20€ only. Depends on what you want from your bank. Certain banks want more like 600€  to open a current a/c (Halifax ES basic current a/c for example) but we need to keep plenty in for DDs like water & electricity & community fees.

When Fadesa opened my account for me at the London branch of Banco Andalucia I paid nothing in and the account ran in deficit for three months because no one told me about the €10 fee for the non resident certificate. Then when I sent over the quarterly payments it would be in credit for a few days and then back in the red. With fees and charges it took about 6 months to get it sorted.
