We changed from Non residents accounts to residents accounts just by showing residencia certificate. Nothing else required.

OK, just to let you know, I have called the Consulate in London and I am still none the wiser.
I have to bring all my bits in person to them and it can definitely be done from this end....................but and its a big but, they were not sure if it would be delivered to my UK addy or one in Spain. A receipt would definitely be sent to the UK one but my N.I.E would possibly need to be sent to an addy in Spain.
I was told that I must not sign it until I get there as I must sign it in their company.
Now when I asked why, in all the info I had it stated that I needed a reason and possibly a document to justify why I wanted an N.I.E I was told to hold while she found out that info, and yep, you guessed it, after a 5 min wait............................I was cut off!
So..............
I CAN apply from here, I have to make sure I don't sign it until I get there, a receipt will be sent to my UK addy, but possibly not my N.I.E, it will cost £22 but she thinks it may have gone up a little, and well that's about it.............

I want to open a bank account from here.
Need the N.I.E number.
Its OK, I have spoken to them again.
They WONT sent the N.I.E back to the UK, I definitely need a Spanish addy, and I DON'T need a letter or document detailing why I am coming.
