Halifax/Lloyds International money transfer

I have an account at Halifax/Lloyds in Fuengirola Spain and have to pay a maintenance fee of Euro 27-56 in order for them to close the account,I do not have funds in the account and I would like to know the cheapest way I can put funds in allowing them to close the account.
I have accounts with Halifax and LLoyds TSB here in the UK.

    I find http://www.moneybookers.com/app/ and http://www.globalwebpay.com/ good for small international transfers. I think Halifax charges less than most UK banks for international transfers if you want a lower-hassle option.

    Check with Lloyds/Halifax but I'm pretty sure if it is to a Lloyds Spanish account or the old Banco Halifax then there is no foreign transfer fee to send the money.
