Hi, Bankia have announced substantial increases for the services. Can you advice for another Bank to choose instead?

I have been with BBVA for more than 5 years without any great problems. Their on-line banking website is very good, clear and understandable. If you have an input roughly equal to your monthly pension, then there are no charges at all.

Thank you Tony for the information, I will take a look to the recommended bank. The problem is that we are still working and liv in Sweden, so you have our salaries in a Swedish bank. 

Best regards

Carmen

Looks like all the banks are doing this as Sabadell are looking to charge 5€ per month!

Bankia will charge 14 euros per month.  This is really horrible. We have to change, may be Sabadell is an alternative. Thanks.

Banks are required by Law to offer a basic account free of any charges.
