Will my debit card work in Spain

Will my debit card work in Spain?
I am going to Spain for a couple of weeks and was wondering if my debit card would work in the cashpoints over there. It is a VISA debit from HSBC. Has anyone used one of these in Europe?

Debit Cards made by Visa do work in most European ATMs. Just be sure to NOTIFY YOUR BANK that you will be leaving the country, or they may shut off your card after the first time you use it overseas. (It's a security function to prevent theft.) In that case, you would be very out of luck.
2 :
it should work in the ATMs and stores that accept Visa
3 :
Yes, your card works over seas.I have used my VISA card in Madrid with no problems at all.
4 :
Contact HSBC to let them know that you are travelling to Spain and will be using your card there. If you don't contact them, you run the risk of them putting a hold on your account the first time you try to use it overseas. It is not uncommon for an account to be frozen due to suspected fraud. You will not have any problems as long as you notify them ahead of time.
5 :
A visa debit issued by HSBC will be fine, but as a precaution you might just want to nip into your branch and let them know you will using it overseas in the next few weeks so they don't put a block on any transactions.

I´m American. I have a valid resident permit for Germany but I´d like to move to SPAIN, can I work there

I´m American. I have a valid resident permit for Germany but I´d like to move to SPAIN, can I work there?
I have a valid one year resident and work permit for Germany but I really miss Barcelona and would like to return, but I need to look for legal work. Most places ask Americans to have EU papers, does my German resident /stay title allow me the opportunity to look for work in Spain and can I then apply for a Spanish resident visa once I have obtained legal work? In Spain will I have to apply for the same type of work I do in Germany? Urgently need advice.

Why don't you go to the Spain embassy in Germany? I know that Spain and Italy have passed amnesty laws in there countries to allow undocumented workers to stay....There laws seem to be less restrictive....
3 :
Residency qualifications changed here in Spain at the beginning of the year. I don't believe your German permit will have any value here. If your Spanish is any good you can check at http://www.mir.es/
