Hey @anomynous1 ,

 

Thanks for reaching out.

 

When Spotify detects any possible fraudulent activity on accounts, or anything else that violates their terms and conditions, they disable it.

 

If you feel there's been some confusion, you can contact Spotify here.

 

Hope this helps 🙂

Hi,

I feel this isnt the answer to the issue

I did create a spotify account a few months earlier, but then I did delete it.

I feel this could be with maybe there beng a bug, and my email not being removed from spotifies database?

I highly doubt that I was violating spotifies TOS as I was just creating an account.

Hey @anomynous1 ,

 

Thanks for letting me know.

 

In that case, it can take up to 30 days for Spotify to free up the email address again. 🙂
