Student Discount Issues

I have had a spotify premium account since about February and was paying the normal 9.99 a month fee. However, I just enrolled in college so I opted to get the student discount. It approved me and sent me to the link to claim my offer for the discount, but once it rolled over into the next billing period, it still lists me as paying 9.99 a month without a the student discount. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.s

Annoyingly, it doesn't appear that the Spotify payment system will allow US customers to adjust the price of an existing recurring subscription to apply the student discount. 

 

To get your discount, all you need to do is cancel your current subscription following the steps over on this help page then re-subscribe using your student discount link. No need to worry, you will still get all of the Premium days you have paid for doing this, you can cancel and resubscribe right away and you won't be billed until your next renewal date.
