I have a TransferWise account and wonder if anyone has used TransferWise to transfer money from a U.K. bank account to Spanish bank since Jan 1st. If so did the Spanish bank charge you for the deposit? Many thanks.
Since January 1, we have had both a private transfer from Transferwise, and a direct UK old age pension transfer from Worldpay into our Sabadell account and incurred no charges.
We have an expansion account with Sabadell with a UK pension paid directly into it every 4 weeks and a minimum deposit of 700 per month, and maintain an above zero balance; therefore we get free banking with them.
