PROFESSIONAL SERVICES

Sending professionals to your home

Do you know how complicated it can be to find a professional when you need one?. And unless you are fluent in a second language, explaining what you need and making the arrangements can be almost impossible.

Avoid the frustrations!. Whenever you need a professional service – from plumbers to painters or glaziers- a telephone call will give you access to professionals and qualified tradesmen throughout Spain.

Whoever you need.
… the Halifax Club can help!

UTILITY REGISTRATION SERVICE

Get your house ready to move in!

If you have a new home in Spain, don’t worry about registering with the telephone, electricity, water and gas companies. The Halifax Club Helpline Service will arrange everything for you!

CARD CANCELLATION SERVICE (1)

Peace of mind if you can’t find your cards!

What happens if you lose your debit/credit cards?. How can you renew them immediately? What happens if they are stolen? What telephone number do you need to call up?

... The first thing is not to panic. Because as a member of the Halifax Club everything can be sorted out with just one telephone call -including arrangements for issuing a new card, whenever this is possible.

(1) Service only valid for cards issued in Spain.

AGENCY AND LEGAL SERVICE

Making your life that much easier!

If you are buying a home in Spain, do you undertand the property related fees and taxes you will have to pay? If you decide to live in Spain, do you know what steps you have to take to become a resident? And do you know how to import your car and how much it will cost?

Or just because you never know when you might need a Solicitor....

... it’s reassuring to have access to the Halifax Club panel of recommended Agency and Legal Services*.

In those situations when you are not sure which way to turn, we can make your life that much easier.

*BANCO HALIFAX does not assume any responsibility for any legal or tax advice given by the recommended solicitors and tax advisors included in this panel.
