If they dont transfer to another bank but when you look to do to another bank ask the question first - do you provide information in my language? Otherwise for a bit of help l have always used http://babelfish.altavista.com it gives me a good idea of what the words and phrases are all about. l cant tell from your profile where you are from - but in the part of CDS l am from the CAJAMAR and many of the other banks are targeting English speaking clients and most of their websites and on-line banking sites are also in english _______________________ Margery www.spiritofspain.net Spam post?

The website and internet banking are the same. I'm beginning to find my way round it with the help of my spanish lessons and a dictionary but the hardest part was not knowing the name of the utility companies where my lawyer had set up all my direct debits. I recognised Securitas but didn't know what Iberdrola or Aquagest Levante were! It all adds to the fun!! _______________________ Claire www.marina.remax.es Spam post?
