Hello together
i want to close my premium account and create a new family account in one or two months when i move with my new family. So I don't want to keep the existing account (new address, new email etc.).
How can I save my playlists so I can transfer them to my new account?
Will the playlists be deleted when the account is closed?
What happens to the people who follow my playlist when the account no longer exists - do the followers still see the playlist?
Many thanks for your help
Hey @lachaca thanks for reaching out to the Community,
I would suggest you actually not delete your account. You can simply change your email/address and keep your playlists, followers, and music. When you do move, you can cancel your current premium plan, and then purchase a family plan, that way you do not have to start over again.
Let me know what you decide,
Jack 🙂
Hi Jack
Thank you very much for your prompt reply. I will think about how I will proceed.
Nevertheless two question remains unanswered:
What happens if a premium account is closed whose playlists I have followed (I have downloaded the playlists - available offline). Are they still available for me? or what happens with them.
And do my followers still see my playlists when I close the premium account?
Unfortunately I didn't find a reasonable answer in any description.
best regards
Hi there @Quan_,
Thank you for reply in this thread.
We can confirm that you'll still have your playlists you've created in your library. However, you won't be able to listen to the playlists while being in offline mode.
We hope this information was helpful 🙂
Let us know if we can help you with anything else.
Take care!
Thanks @Jeremy for your advice.
As you've asked anything else, may I get rid of this long and hard to remember my name account?
Can this be anything that represents my identity and similar to myself? My name for example.
Thank you
P.s. There isn't an option to delete post as I've found out the way to change my name account just now already.
Hey @Quan_,
Thanks for keeping in touch.
We're glad to know that you already found the answer you were looking for. We'd just like to add that alphanumeric usernames are automatically generated and can't be changed, but no worries, as you can set and change your display name as you'd like, and that's the one that will be visible in your profile. More info in this article.
On another note, you can find how to remove a Community post in this article.

You may have missed my question as I'm asking how to tag someone in my reply?

Hey @Quan_,
Thanks for the post.
When you write the '@' symbol you should see a list of all the community users who've posted in the thread, just click on one of the names and that should create an active tag link.
Hope this helps 🙂
