I don't live in Los Altos, but I like the Sabadell Bank and their branches always have some english speaking staff. if you make standing orders for your electricity, water, gas, etc, and do some insurance with them you will have a good chance of having no bank charges. Ask a personal banker about that.

Hi again!

I can't think of any banks in Los Altos (I could be wrong), but you'll find a number of them along the N332 between Punta Prima and La Zenia (including Sabadell). However, you could consider using an online bank such as Wise.com (many people on this forum like Wise). One advantage of Wise is easy and cheap exchange from Sterling to Euros, and vice versa.

Cheers

Steve
