Does anyone have experience of using a revolut account to pay direct debits for bills in Spain please (for example iberdrola, hidraqua, SUMA, community charge)? We previously had a bank account with Sabadell but closed it due to bank charges. Currently i just pay water and electric etc by credit card as the bills come through but its a bit of a pain. Thanks

You need to have a Revolut account with either a Spanish or EU IBAN number.  Iam with Wise and they have a Belgian EU number which I now use to pay all bills by direct debit.

I have also opened a Wise account and moved my Ole DD by calling to their office. Can I ask how you did your other DDs, did you call to Iberdrola, Suma and Hideraqua offices also?

Hi

I pay for my internet via direct debit using my Revolt account. It was set up over the phone.

I use revolut all the time. I just transferred a large amount to a company to fit windows no problem. If you go to your accounts page it gives you your bank account number that is relevant to your sterling account or your euro account. Basically as far as I'm aware you just treat it as any other bank account. The best thing us you can transfer from sterling to euros and vice versa instantly. You can also see the rate instantly.
