[Subscription] Military / Forces Discount

Spotify currently offer students a 50% discount, yet no forces discount. Spotify should introduce a forces discount for current serving members of the armed forces.

Hey everyone,

 

Thanks for coming to the Spotify Idea Exchange.

 

We've discussed this idea and while it is interesting, we aren't able to prioritize it and don't have any immediate plans to implement this. We will let you know if this changes in the future.

 

If we do have any new information to share, rest assured we'll check back in here with a new status.

 

More info on why your idea has been closed can be found here.

This would be great, I recently went from student to full price and i'm considering cancelling. Having the veteran's benefit reduce the price would definately keep me around as a customer

I know I certainly would appreciate an active military discount.

Lets make this clear, if a student deserves it so a Military member. My words may sound a bit harsh but it's how I feel. Everyone contributes to society. However some pay a higher price than others. Spotify you're great.

My issue isn't the price. It's the fact that the Spotify app allows users only 30 days offline, when many of us who are deployed or underway sometimes go longer than that out on the water between ports. Meanwhile, the auto payment gets taken from me every month, but there is no way to connect to the Internet out in the middle of the ocean. There needs to be an option to pay for X amount of days, in increments of 30 days, beforehand that way I can continue to enjoy Spotify service even if I am underway for longer than 30 days. There is also the issue that the app on multiple occasions has signed me out before the allotted 30 days, essentially wasting that month's payment, and denying me access to the full month of service that I paid for. I will most likely cancel my Spotify subscription soon and when I get home from deployment, I will use other services like Amazon Music, or go back to buying CDs. Luckily I have an MP3 player to fall back on when Spotify fails me, like it has this deployment.

Spotify, do you have an update for us? Or is this gonna keep getting pushed under the rug? Get it together, I would love to see a military discount.
