Solved!

Premium is not working on phone

Since a couple of day's my spotify isn't working on my phone anymore. It's telling me to buy premium which I already have. Help me please!

Hi, I have been using premium on my phone for a few months with no issues but for the last few days it has been saying I need to upgrade to premium (which I already have and pay for). Any help would be much appreciated

Hey! Welcome to the community 🙂 

 

Can you just double check your subscription is still active on your online overview

If you are still on premium, try removing and then reinstalling the application.

I really need help I renewed my premium subscription it works on my iPad but its telling me "only premium users can stream music whenever" on my iPhone an I just renewed it today please,please!! Help I tried the username an it still won't work

Okay so I'm confused. I understand the spotify free trial only works 2 days on the phone, but 30 on the computer. I used my free trial on my phone and am ready to pay for premium but do I have to wait 30 days till the "free trial" for my computer is done for the actual premium to be activated on my phone?

Thanks!

Nope, just go ahead and upgrade to premium.

Hey! Welcome to the community 🙂 

 

Have you only recently subscribed? Is your account showing as premium on your online overview

My husband has premium and was charged in the 11th of april on his account and I also have a $9.99 charge on my account but can't access anything but radio. I was charged on the 22nd if April.

If you sign into your premium account on your online account what does your subscription status say?

Can you try copying the tracks from that playlist, into another playlist on your computer copying a max of 100 tracks at a time and then see if it will then appear on your phone? There does appear to be a playlist synchronisation issue with large playlist changes.

I went to log in to my premium account as usual on my phone today, and I'm asked to upgrade to premium to use the service. No idea why, I've tried loging in and out and logging in with FB. Not sure why as I have a direct debit for the premium service.....?

Looks like we've been unable to take a payment this month. If there's enough funds in that account, check this list of common problems, then try resubscribing.

Hey! Welcome to the community 🙂 

 

Does it work on WiFi/3G? If a clean reinstallation didn't help that normally points to a connection issue.
