From the Lebara website and will likely be typical:

Delivery address. Spain only. We don't send SIM to post boxes

Already checked Skype and Spain was not amongst the list of the 27 countries available. 

Sounds to me what you really need though is for someone with adequate Spanish to act as an intermediary for you, I would volunteer myself but my Spanish is definitely not up to it - anyone else? 

I seen Skype and wondered why no spanish? I can get by with spanish and Iv wrote to each apartment with my details but not sure on the post is it correo? But I’ll just have to see. I’m supposed to be there for 3 weeks but this virus around who knows how long before it’s all safe. Thank you all for your help and be safe.

Not sure about this as I am in that savvy age range! On many occasion I have been stopped by a British phone company selling their service who operate in and around the habaneros shopping centre, now as I am in that age range I can’t remember the name of the company.

It’s for my Spanish neighbours i just want them to have the options. None of the speak English and they have my uk mobile but Iv suggested watsap but I don’t know if the have WiFi in their homes hence a spanish number will be cheaper for them to contact me in the uk if need be. They’re prob...

...ably 50 - 70 age range so not sure how tech savvy they are

I am in my mid 70s, and I know that many Spanish people use WhatsApp as it doesn't cost anything.   Try using a Translator App and sending your neighbours a request for them to join.

"I seen Skype and wondered why no spanish" 

Probably to do with local rules controlling the acquidition of a phone number, few places are like UK where you can walk into a shop and buy a totally untraceable SIM or a whole 'burner'  phone over the counter and with no questions asked. 

Never could understand why they allowed that as such things are the backbone of the drug trade and much other criminality.
