can't remember username login..and have lost playlists

can't remember username login..and have lost playlists

Hi all

 

I made an account years ago, I had some good playlists. I've finally installed Spotify again just now and synced it up with Facebook. A common problem it seems: I've lost my playlists. I read that if you sign in with your old details then you will get them back and still keep your Facebook sync. However when I checked out my details online it says my user name is a series of numbers, e.g 14591038. It's like my old account has just been erased completely?! Yet the email address has never changed.

 

Basically: I want my playlists back, but I can't remember my username. 

 

Any way around this? Many thanks

Hey 🙂 

 

If you get in touch using this form the Spotify team will be able to help you recover your account after verifying a few details 😉 

Just be sure to reply to any automated emails you get, which will push your case to an advisor.

 

Just to protect your email from spam, I am going to hide that address.

Hello,

I have a similar problem, and after contacting Spotify, they adviced me to try with Spotify Community.

I am trying to access my Spotify account but I cannot remember my password.  My username is: esthercollado



The problem is I cannot simply change my password because I no longer have access to my old email account, which I used for creating my Spotify account ([Snip-Email(Privacy)-Peter]), so if I try to reset my Spotify password, I cannot check the email Spotify sends for such effect.

Is there any way I can have access to my account?  

I created a new account to try and find me somehow, but I did not succeed.
What do I do?

 

Thank you very much.

@EstherC - Sorry to hear you are having issues! Firstly, I am going to hide that email address, it is best not to post your email here in plain text unless you like a lot of spam. 😉

Spotify have a dedicated accounts team who will be able to lend a hand to get you back to your account. If you could get in touch with them using a working email address here, they can authorize a manual password reset after verifying a few details:
