Changed Facebook password because of Heartbleed, lost Premium account and playlist.

I changed my facebook password due to the heartbleed vulnerability.  When I signed back in to Spotify it only shows me as a free user and I lost all of my playlists.  How do I fix this?

When changing your Facebook password, your Spotify account and Facebook account become unlinked, so you have to link them again. If that is that is the case... check out my post here

Hi!

I have similar problems and have tried to fix it by using recommended tips found in the community, nothing works.

 

I then tried to send contact Spotify by mailing this message:

Hi.

-After a week with no answers and also tweeting my case number to Spotify's twitter account, I am getting a bit frustrated.
-I belive that I may invertedly created another, now free, account while trying to log in to my original account after changing the above mentioned security-options on Facebook.
-Also, I have created a new account to listen to music when waiting for my problems to be solved. Music is my medicine...

 

Can anyone help me? 

My case number is:

# 01953227

 

(P.S.: Strangely enough, Spotify does not include a direct-contact mail og a chat-function, so what can I do??).

 

@Spotify_me_nor - Hang in there, I've asked someone to make sure that case gets to the correct hands asap for you.

I am having the EXACT same problem.  I have replied to the email.  This is my case number 02757250.  Can you please escalate?  Thank you.

@user-removed 

 

Support usually replies within 24-48 hours.

If you still have not gotten a reply after that time:

Did you get a confirmation email from the contact form? It should be similar to "Spotify Support Case #XXXXXXX". If so, reply back to that email and tell them you still need help.

 

If you got an automated reply email telling you to check the help section or the community, you need to reply back to it saying you still need help, even if it's from a no-reply address.

I got a reply finally and they said that there was another acocunt linked to my profile with an email address that I've never had or heard of and that it did not have my correct birthdate attached to it-so obviously not me...  I explained that and have replied 4 times now and they have copletley stopped contacing me or replying to my messages.  This is getting really annoying.  Any suggestions on how to get an asnwer from these people?
