A couple of weeks later he found that someone had used those details to set a standing order to a charity and £500 had already been paid out of his account
Lol, nice one.

MY Iban number is ES52.

Smile Re: IBAN Numbers? Swift Codes?

At the top of my Banco Andalucia statement is an explanation of how IBAN is set out.


Bank Office DC Account No

IBAN ES47 0004 3135 0000 0000 0000

All Spanish banks start wih ES and a number then the bank is identified in this case Banco Andalucia part of the Grupo Banco Popular so this could be either the bank or group number then the branch in this case Ayamonte where there is only one branch of the group. I do not know what DC is short for but is two digits folowed by the first two digits from the 10 digit account number.

So in summary the IBAN for a Spanish account is

ES00 followed by 20 digits get it right and everything works quickly and correctly.
