moving abroad

[Spotify_ejvh]

hi,

I'm currently living in the Netherlands, and I'm considering to sign up for spotify unlimited.

The problem is, I'm moving to Germany this summer, and I was wondering if I still would be able to acces and use my account in Gemany.

thanks, 

Erik

Yes, of course you can!

Spotify is available in Germany, so you could even use your free account there. If you would rather keep your account based in the netherlands (since content sometimes changes depending on region) then subscribing to premium or unlimited using a netherland payment method will also work and gives you access to your account anywhere in the world.

moved from Germany to Austria.

When I try to edit my profile the country-combobox is inactive. A message below says that I have to change my terms of payment first (with a link). The page the link leads me to (https://www.spotify.com/at/account/subscription/change-payment/) allows me to change country and payment, but always returns an error "There went something wring. Try again or visit our help page" (in German, tranlation by me)

I'm also studying abroad in Germany but  from the USA. I downloaded the German spotify but I can't access many of the german songs. It says "can not be accessed in this region" how can I get those songs since I am in that country??

Moved from Netherlands to Canada. I brought a dutch gift card with me.

In Canada, spotify forced me to change the country before I could use it again.

Few months later I tried to redeem the giftcard from the netherlands. This was not possible as I was "in the wrong country".

On websites it was sugested to contact spotify to switch the giftcard but that could take up to 2 workdays.

As I didn't want to wait that long (was going on vacation to US next day) I tried to change my country in my spotify account.

The only country I was able to select was Canada.

Then I made a VPN connection to server in the Netherlands and then logged in to the account. Unfortuantly, still not able to change.

Then, VNCed to PC of my dad in the netherlands. From there opened a browser and opened my spotify account. Now I had besideds Canada also the option Netherlands to select as a country. Changed the country to the Netherlands and then entered the gift card.

Worked like a charm.

Then logged in on my phone again and could download music for offline use.
