Need help now with DElinking FB

my girlfriend borrowed my account and have linked it with her FB, the linking is without my permission.

We sat down today to subscribe her to her own spotify, but we could not becouse spotify says that she already have a spotify connected to her FB.

 

we are going in to her FB and try to deaktivate, and it put itself on the list without permission?!?! wtf

 

and i dont even have an FB account and NEVER WILL, so how the hell do we seperate MY spotify with HER facebook???

seems impossible.

Log in with your Spotify username and password (NOT your girlfriend's facebook) and then, under Edit -> Preferences, press "Disconnect from Facebook". This should remove your girlfriend's Facebook connection from your Spotify account.

 

Then, have your girlfriend log into Spotify with her Facebook details and a new empty account should be waiting for her.

 

Note that you can't sign up to Spotify without Facebook anymore, so your girlfriend must keep her Facebook active at all times to use Spotify.

did not work.
seemed to work when i dosconnected in MY account, but when she logged in with her FB details she was back in my premium

That's just screwed up, Spotify shouldn't let you log in with a Facebook account that you have disconnected. It's a huge privacy risk. Anyway, try this:

 

1. Disconnect your Spotify account from her Facebook again.

 

2. On your girlfriend's Facebook, delete the Spotify app here http://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=applications

 

3. Now we'll try to sign her up for Spotify. Register her with the sign up page to make sure your girlfriend's Facebook gets linked to an empty Spotify account http://www.spotify.com/signup/open/

 

4. Log in with your girlfriend's Facebook. Now you should see an empty account.

 

1. Disconnect your Spotify account from her Facebook again.
DONE


2. On your girlfriend's Facebook, delete the Spotify app here http://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=applications
DONE

2.5. I did CHANGE my password in the spotify account

3. Now we'll try to sign her up for Spotify. Register her with the sign up page to make sure your girlfriend's Facebook gets linked to an empty Spotify account http://www.spotify.com/signup/open/
NOT POSSIBLE, IT SAYS THAT HER FB IS ALREADY LINKED TO AN SPOTIFY ACCOUNT


4. Log in with your girlfriend's Facebook. Now you should see an empty account.

And when i login with my NEW password the accounts are linked again

It seems like the part where you disconnect your Spotify account from Facebook is failing for some reason.

 

What happens when you disconnect from Facebook? You should no longer see your girlfriend's name at the top right corner in Spotify, it should show your account's username and no profile picture.

 

This might be something a Spotify employee needs to look at.

Xeno85 - Welcome to the Community! It now looks like your girlfriend has a new Facebook related account, so if you were to log in with her Facebook details, this new account will be the one accessed, not yours.

If you continue to log in with the username 'xeno85' and your Spotify password, you'll access your Premium account. This account is no longer linked to any Facebook account, so her Facebook details shouldn't work at all.

Stupify - Thanks for your help here. Your steps appear to have sorted it.
