We are with La Caixa and were from the beginning. The fees to transfer £ from UK.to € here were exorbitant. If we were doing it over we would open an account with 100€'then use one of the transfer agencies.like GCEN to transfer the lump sum. So no bank charges to receive the funds. When we purchased a. 4x4 here.we obtained a 25K cashier's cheque and it cost 20€.
I would really consider the numerous transfer agencies as Banks are Banks &'Spanish Banks are particularly grasping and I speak from homes in Oz & India.
If.any of.your.pension singly are 1000€ or more, not pensions in.total, then Banco Popular.
Best if.luck,
