I have the wrong facebook account linked to my spotify account

Solved!

I have the wrong facebook account linked to my spotify account

Hi,

 

I have no idea how but when I log into Spotify I now have my friend's Facebook account connected to it instead of mine.

 

I need to have it disconnected - I have followed numerous instructions (i.e. disconnected from Facebook under 'preferences') but it still continues to show her name on the top right hand corner when I log in and is connected to her account.

 

Can someone please help me disconnect her account from my Spotify?

 

Thank you.

I'm also getting the same problem. My friend's Facebook account is somehow linked to my Spotify account, and now he isn't able to log in to Spotify as he set up his account with his Facebook details. I've tried re-installing multiple times in addition to using the 'disconnect from Facebook' option in 'Preferences', but it does nothing. My friend said he also tried changing his Facebook password and then logging in to Spotify, but he keeps receiving the same error messages (404, 412). None of his Firewall settings are blocking incoming or outgoing connections of Spotify.

On the contact form which categories is it best to select because I can't seem to find anything that fits?

I would choose "Account & Login" -> "I can't log in to Spotify" since it is a login/facebook issue.

My friend signed me up with spotify premium (gift card for six months) but now when i log in i see his name on my profile in the spotify app and his facebook friends.

 

How can i disconnect it all and get back to the start with a blank profile and my username. Completely seperate to his account.

 

I have tried ot 'disconnect from everywhere' and force a full log out of the app

Hello,  i had another acct that was attached to my business facebook page..updated to the new facebook business and now i cannot login.. i only had the fb login no regular spotify acct.  i pay for premium and cant use it. tried to find ways to contact the company but there isnt even an email protal that i could find...PISSED  can some one help me with this before i just call the bank and cancel it???

Go to the settings page in the desktop app. There should be a disconnect from Facebook button. After that it can take 24-48 hours for your username to show instead again and for the picture to be removed.

I have the wrong Facebook account associated with my Spotify account.  Could you please help me to fix this so that I can associate the correct FB account with my Spotify account?

Thanks!

would you mind disconnecting my facebook account from my spotify also as my friend signed in on her phone and it connected too her facebook account?

If you login to the Spotify desktop app and go to the settings page you can disconnect the wrong Facebook account and then link the correct one.

 

It can take 1-2 days for the display name and picture to update to the correct one after connecting.

Hi! I've got a big problem with trying to "get rid" of my friend's facebook account at my spotify. I don't know how it came to it, but her facebook is connected to my spotify account. Could you please help me deleting her, and to connect my own facebook account? Pretty please? 

Was wondering how you go about changing your log in optpins so you don't have to log in with your Facebook credentials because I made a new Facebook account and deactivateD my old one but now I cannot acess my premium account so confused

Hey. I have the wrong facebook account attached to my spotify login - even when I disconnect from facebook, every time i log in the wrong name is at the top right of the page - How can I remove this account from my spotify?

 

I have also a wrong Facebook account linked to my spotty account, could you please erase that information?

Tks
