Do the 2 extra letters stand for La Poste or Banque Postal? I have just checked my caisse epergne acc, it only has the figuration your Spanish acc has for the RIB, but also has the code banque, acc, cle etc and has CE Languedoc at the end(caisse epergne)

France uses a 27 character IBAN number in the format

FRkk bbbb bggg ggcc cccc cccc cxx

Spain uses a 24 character IBAN number in the format
ESkk bbbb gggg xxcc cccc cccc

where :-
b = National bank code
g = Branch code
c = Account number
x = Check digits

For more information look at
