My daughter is working in Spain and wants to open an instant access savings account in a Spanish bank. Are there any Spanish comparison websites? Any specific suggestions? Thanks

    First a massive congratulations that she has a job in Spain. No small achievement.

    Secondly I leave the absolute minimum in my spanish account. Can she not deposit somewhere else? [Even Uganda would be better ;) Sorry a Rajoy type joke but I couldn't resist it :D ]

    ps But if she insists just ask on the spanish expat websites for the current best

    Presumably your daughter has a bank account to pay her salary into? I would suggest she uses that bank.

    I have banked with a few providers in spain and currently use Barclays.es https://www.barclays.es/publico/contents/clientesInternacionales/clientesInternacionales_home.jsp?lang=en_UK
