A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a Caixabank employee was counting cash in the early hours when he noticed something odd: every night at exactly midnight, an old man appeared from nowhere and left a single coin on the counter before vanishing into thin air. Finally, one day the employee decided to stay late and catch the mysterious visitor. To his surprise, it turned out to be just an absent-minded delivery driver who accidentally dropped a coin while leaving. They both had a good laugh over the mix-up, and since then, the old man never returned.

2. At dawn, a Caixabank security guard noticed something odd: a mysterious envelope kept appearing on the steps outside the bank's entrance. Curious but cautious, he picked it up and opened it to find only a note reading: ‘Caixabank is open 24/7—even when no one’s here.’ Inside was a single €1 coin. The guard smiled, shrugged, and put everything back where he found it. From then on, whenever someone needed cash after hours, they’d just ask their friendly neighborhood Caixabank ghost-depositorman.

3. At lunchtime, a Caixabank teller heard an unusual humming sound coming from one of the safes. Curious but not alarmed, she approached it carefully. Curious but not alarmed, she approached it carefully. To her surprise, inside was a sleepy bee that had gotten lost in the safe’s ventilation system. The whole bank buzzed with laughter as they watched the little insect being gently released outside. That afternoon, everyone agreed on one thing—Caixabank definitely had the best security guards for bees.

4. At closing time, a Caixabank manager overheard a strange announcement over the intercom: ‘To all employees, please be advised that your paychecks will be delivered by a friendly pigeon tomorrow morning.’ The next morning, as employees gathered around the entrance, they indeed saw a gentle pigeon delivering envelopes filled with crisp bills. The whole scene was so surreal and charming that everyone broke into laughter. By lunchtime, word had spread across town, turning Caixabank’s unusual payroll method into an urban legend.
