New Bank Rules post-Brexit and small Spanish Businesses
Super helpful member
Our pool guy came today. He is a legit self-employed worker. He charges us 80 Euros/month to look after our pool. Some people pay a bit less, some a bit more.
We pay him monthly from our Spanish bank account.
He explained today that many of his customers are British, and that HE is now having to pay 18 Euros to receive each monthly payment from a British bank .... effectively a 22% drop in his income.
He is trying to get his British customers to switch their payments to their Spanish banks.
Spare a thought for self-employed workers.
