Pay at the Caixa Catalunya. They process payment all day everyday. The other banks don't. See other posts re getting NIE from Reus. We got ours in 4 hours flat from start to finish. We got residencia at the same time and din't need any padron or colour photocopies just black and white made at the post office on the corner.

Well done for getting it though.

BTW, how did you get a padron without proving you already own a place? You need the NIE to get a place so it looks like its 'All aboard the merrigoround' again.
