The support reps are asking for (zip, paypal ID and the birthday you entered when making account) because they need to verify that you actually own the account.

 

Let's say someone emailed Spotify and told them that I stole their account when really it is my account, they need to verify information from that person to see if they really do own the account or not.

 

 

Support usually replies within 24-48 hours.

If you still have not gotten a reply:

Did you get a confirmation email from the contact form? It should be similar to "Spotify Support Case #XXXXXXX". If so, reply back to that email and tell them you still need help.

 

If you got an automated reply email telling you to check the help section or the community, you need to reply back to it saying you still need help, even if it's from a no-reply address.

 

If you never got an email, look in your spam folder to see if there is an email in there. Make sure you are checking the email account you used to sign up to Spotify. You can check the email on your account here.
