Site of Metro ticket machines in BArcelona Airport

Does anyone know approx where the Metro ticket machines are situated in Barcelona Airport? We need the ones that sell T-10 tickets. Are they before you leave the Terminal or when you get across to the train station.
Thank you

They don't sell any metro tickets at the terminal or train station. The line serving El Plat is one of RENFE suburban lines and you can only buy ticket for them. Get off at Sants and follow the sign for Metro (left as you emerge from platform). As you go downstairs and you come to a ticket office where you can buy a full range of metro tickets.

Thank you, but I thought you could use the T-10 tickets to get from the Airport to Barcelona Centre? Can you not buy these tickets?

Yes you can. There was a sign at the airport station saying they didn't sell tickets for the metro.

There are a couple of Servicaixa ATMs in the terminal where you can buy T-10 with a credit card. I've never tried, and don't know if you can get instructions in English.

We tried buying metro tickets with a credit card, and the machine wouldn't take it.

So I think the machines may not take US credit cards.

I'm pretty sure that the machines have instructions in English.
