No, I never heard of Banco Central Hispano. I only know Santander from going to Mexico over the years. Always thought it had a weird name but never thought about where it might've come from.
Again, learn something new everyday. And with a moral, too. Don't do business with Santander - it will eat you alive (as would any monolith of a company).
¡Cantabria! However, never heard of Banco Central Hispano, Vail? My father and Uncle were both were into starting Credit Unions early in their lives and THAT (the BCH) was a monster! It was supposed to be a "merger" back in the late '90s but Santander just took control and pushed their agenda. Bought up a ton of smaller banks and credit unions (sadly, some of which my father and uncle started) to become the monolith it is today.
