My Country is incorrect when logging in via Facebook

My Country is incorrect when logging in via Facebook

My Facebook account is from Ireland and I log in to Spotify using it.

In work, our network proxies through Northern Ireland (seen as the UK).

 

I use the desktop version of Spotify and after 14 days, it tells me that I can't listen to my music anymore.

I'd prefer not to change my Facebook location to the UK.

 

Is there a way to get around this?

Hi, and welcome to the community!

 

Unfortunately not. Unless you get a premium subscription, the country of your IP must match that of your facebook setting since you've got a facebook Spotify account.

 

If you can't change your office proxy, you could create a new Spotify account (username not facebook) and set your country to the UK. If you opt for this route, let me know.

Thanks.

 

That brings me to my next problem...

When I try to create a new account with one of my other email addresses, it tells me "Spotify is not available in your country".

Like I said before, the proxy is going through Northern Ireland.

This is the URL for the account creation page: https://www.spotify.com/uk/signup/
