ENEB New Master Thread

[Voldigoad]

I think I mentioned it a while ago in this thread, but I have inquired with a notary service in Valencia (Spain) to get my Universidas Isabel I Diplomas from ENEB apostilled (as I didn't want to pay the high fee ENEB charges). I sent the digital diplomas to them and then had to sign the mandate for the notary and authenticate myself with my ID in their office. The whole process took several months, but this was also because I chose to show my ID in person during my holidays in Valencia, so they couldn't process my request before that. They did offer me to simply send my ID via WhatsApp in case I didn't wanna come to Spain to authenticate myself and sign the notary mandate, so that option exists and likely would've yielded faster results.
In the end I "only" paid around 142€ for the apostille, which still is some money, but not the horrendous prices ENEB charges (especially without discount).
Fun thing is, the notary service first called ENEB and UI1 in my name to ask if they would like to sign the apostille, but they requested I pay an additional 600€ lol.

 It was pretty cool that the notary, in the apostille, mentioned that he had verified the authenticity of the UI1 diplomas via the URL from UI1 included in the documents and the respective CSV code on the documents, which I think was pretty cool, since ENEB/UI1 only wanted to cooperate for extra money.

So anyone who wants the apostille cheaper than ENEB offers it and also be able to request it 100% online, this option exists.
