Unlinking spotify account from facebook

Unlinking spotify account from facebook

Hello, i have deactivated my facebook account (want to stop using this crap) and i couldn't login to spotify, because i has spotify account linked to facebook.

 

So i turned on facebook, logged in to spotify, and now im looking for option to unlink facebook. FAQ says it can be done in spotify app in preferences / social section. Unfortunatelly there is no button for unlinking facebook. I see options:

- Automatically make new playlist public

- Private session

- Publish my activity on spotify

- Show my current Top Artists

- Facebook ID + switch "share my activity on facebook"

- Last.fm connect button

 

 

I have clicked "Show advanced settings" button but still doesn't see unlink button.

 

The only way to fix this problem is to setup new spotify account ? Is there no option to "convert" facebook type account into regular one ?

Hi @fisholl and welcome to the Spotify Community!

 

Unfortunately, Spotify Accounts created via Facebook cannot be unlinked from Facebook. However, Spotify Support is able to transfer all your stuff from your old account to a new account, if you'd like to do this.

 

Spotify Support:

If you get an automated reply email telling you to check the Knowledgebase or the Spotify Community, you need to reply back to it, even if it's from a no-reply address. Spotify Support usually replies within 24-48 hours 🙂

Ok, so i tried to create new account. Guess what: i cannot create an account because my email address is already taken (facebook account uses it).

Any ideas ?

Hey @fisholl,

 

As mentioned in my last reply, Spotify Support is able to transfer your stuff from your current account to a new one and then close your current account which means that you can use your email address again.
