Hi,
We have two accounts, a spanish account and an account with the Halifax Hispania. We haven't used the Halifax account yet for transferring money but have transferred money into our spanish account through Moneycorp. This charge a fee but depending on the exchange rate sometimes this can cover the fee. They also can set up regular payments into your account from a UK account to Spain and this is cheaper (I'm not sure but I think it's about £4 a transaction). We are looking into making regular payments as well.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the advice.
We actually paid the deposit through an exchange company, so I suspect it is to do with money laundering. Our solicitor did mention the money needed to be seen as declared. When you are asked for such important information which we use in the Uk it does make alarm bells ring.
It's good to know the forum is here to help ease the worry.

Can anyone please advise us. We have been ask to give our Uk bank details to our solicitor for completion. We have been told it's incase the notary wants to see the account the money has been taken from (deposit).
Is this normal? We are not keen on giving our Uk bank details over. Also, our solicitor has power of attorney. Any info will be appreciated.
