Electronic signature

Hello RosBentley.

I hope that the members who have faced the same problem or have some knowledge in the matter, will help you to figure this issue out.

Thanks and Good luck

I had problems with this too. At one time I sent an email to my (then) bank asking how I could get an electronic signature and they told me they couldn't reply to my email unless it was signed with an electronic signature!

I live in Alicante, Valencian Community and the community issues an electronic signature which I got from one of the bigger town halls (my own town hall didn't offer the service) They gave me a pendrive which I loaded onto the computer and hey presto.

I bank with Banesto/Santander nowadays and they also offer an electronic signature. I had to go to a branch, prove my identity with the usual mix of NIE/"Residencia"/passport and they gave me some passwords to download the key from their website. It didn't work but that's another story.

Of course the Spaniards just have the electronic DNI so it's easy for them. If only our NIEs were similar to the Spanish nationals cards!
