When using any ATM in Spain it is a legal requirement that during the dialog all additional charges must be displayed allowing the user to continue or to abstain. Be alert of any person in your surrouding and do not accept any help offered by bystanders if the ATM doesn't work properly. Chances are that you get ripped off.

Hi Barry

I have a Wise card. I can use it at any ATM, but charges vary enormously - stay clear of Santander (7 euros last time I looked!). Sabadell 1.80.

However, if you can find a Deutsche bank (there's one on La Zenia roundabout) they are free!

I increasingly use the contactless facility to pay for many things, coz I'm too lazy to go to the ATM!

Cheers

Steve

That's good to know ,I'd never given a thought to charges from banks when in Spain   ,id never used the card at an atm ,my concern was that you were only allowed to withdraw  200 euros per month without incurring  charges from Wise  I've used it many times to pay for petrol accommodation and groceries, thanks for info

I too have a Wise account, its excellent, the one small drawback is the limited ATM usage so tend not to use it for cash withdrawals.

I use two back ups.

I have a UK Santander account, FOC atm withdrawals at Santander atm's in Spain.

OR, a Starling account, free atm withdrawals at the Deutsche bank in La Zenia mentioned previously by Steve.

I am non res with a holiday home for clarity.
