Hi Care4, I know how you feel ....it took me 2 months in July-21 from UK before I managed to unblock my account with Bankia in Torrevieja. No response of emails or phones. My account was blocked almost whole of 2021 but I didn't check untill my house insurance emailed me for non-payment. Finally, one lucky day they did response and sent me appx 4 long forms to fill along with a copy of P60 to proove I am UK tax payer and residents with a copy of my passport. All these took 2 months and anger, frustration. Thanks to members in this forum, first I opened a Wise account with debit card, paid every I'll etc, setup direct debits and when I was in Torrevieja 2 weeks ago I emailed them that I wanted to close the account, they asked me come with passports before 11am. Finally I closed the account and now all is being paid by Wise now free....compare to banks charges of 196 euros a year with Bankia ...
