Actual exchange in Palma with delivery recently went as follows after around two hour slot delay.

Yes I know it is minus five plus ten minutes. But that is only if we (delivery) feel like it and we do not. There is no one at the holding point so taxi time plus push back is fifteen minutes. Call me exactly fifteen minutes before your slot.

This kind of behaviour is why pilots are less than sympathetic to Spanish controllers.
