Spanish Debit or Visa/Mastercard & credit rating
 

Hi everyone,

Can anyone shed some light on Spanish credit scoring when it comes to Visa Cards?

Does having a great credit history in the UK hold any weight in Spain?

Can you get a Visa card issued by the bank when you set up a Spanish bank account?

I say this as obviously in the UK it's hard to exist without at least a switch (meastro) card and a few visa/mastercards, I like the security of knowing there's cash then If I ever need to purchase something.

If anyone can shed any light on the subject it would be very much appreciated.
