Yes, there's no problem with that.

There was only one bank, Santander, blocking those type of transactions, people complained and they had to allow it.


Agree, I had just the same problem with this bank, but managed to cope with it due to santander bank customer service . It would even a bigger problem to switch from one bank to another, so that I decided to stay with Santander.

Have you tried "moey!"[1] from Crédito Agrícola? It's geared towards the "youth" generation, so it could be flexible to accept the transactions. Let me know if you need support in this matter. Best of luck!

they still do. there are several large banks that should not be used if you intend on transferring to/from exchanges. Novo banco and BCP/activobank are the main culprits.

From time to time some of them decide to guve us a hard time.
So far these ones, Caixa Geral de Depósitos (CGD) and Banco Comercial Português (BCP) nunca deram chatices. O Santander, por exemplo, volta e meia decide ser um pain in the arse, lol
