I don't suppose you know if it's possible to 'pay into' the Spanish National Health to get cover?
You are going to UK companies and thats not a good idea
As I have mentioned on another thread, go to Sanitas (Spanish division of BUPA) on Página Oficial Sanitas
and you will get a much cheaper quote.

You can only pay into the Spanish system if you go self employed, but that will cost you about 280 euros a month and is not strictly legal. The Spanish are realising people are doing it now and trying to clamp down.
