Facebookname takes over Spotify-username and can't revert

Facebookname takes over Spotify-username and can't revert

Hi there,

 

I tried to link the spotify-account of a website I run to the facebookpage of the site, and in doing so I connected it with my personal facebook-account. In doing so the displayed name of our spotify-account changed to my personal name. I disconnected the link with my facebook-account, but Spotify still hangs on to the new username, my name. I would like to revert that to the name of our organisation. How can I do that? This is really bugging us!

 

thanks,

Matthieu

It should clear out on it's own given a little time @enolamagazine . Have you got the Spotify username handy? Can check it out for you.

username handy is enolamagazine

or is that not what you mean?

@enolamagazine - That is perfect. Just having a look I can confirm that account is no longer tied to Facebook and isn't showing any Facebook information on my end.

If it is still showing in your Spotify app, I would suggest trying a re-install:

thx!

Out of interest, how did you fix this?

 

I've had spotify disconnected from Facebook for ages but my name still appears. I've also tried reinstalling to no avail.

 

My username is nickwalnut.
