Re: English speaking vet in Valencia for pet passport services

If Daniel is there, they will probably put him on the phone if you call them up and start speaking English :-)

Re: Santander. Arghhh I want to kill someone part 10!

Barclays.es has been great until now, but they were sold to La Caixa a few months ago. So it will probably not remain a "decent bank" for much longer.

Re: Calling ONO from outside Spain..contact telephone number???

Sorry those numbers didn't work for you. The only other thing I can think of is, ask your tenants to call ONO for you, and to ask for a contact number that can be called from the UK.
