Spotify thinks I'm abroad, when I'm not

Solved!

Spotify thinks I'm abroad, when I'm not

I used spotify in the US, then studied abroad in Australia for 5 months. I couldn't use it there, but halfway through Australia got spotify. I had to change my country to use spotify there. Now that I'm back in the US, I had to change my country again. But now spotify says "Your account can no longer be used from abroad, since the maximum travel time is 14 days for a Spotify Free account. To continue using Spotify from abroad, sign up for Spotify Premium which gives you unlimited travel access." But I'm not longer abroad, and would like to go back to using Spotify Free.

Hi there,
I got the same message telling me that I had 14 days to use Spotify abroad but I never left home lol. I am signed up to Australia but I got a new iPhone recently and used Spotify on it after I installed it but after some update I kept getting this message every time I want to use it.
Please help

My account is locked too. I lived in the uk but now I have moved back to Australia and can't access my account

I'm having the same issue, i try to log in from my phone and it won't let me saying "Login failed, you can only use Spotify abroad for 14 days." But I've never left my country or been abroad???? Can someone pls help me I'm very irritated.

I think this thread is not really helpful. All we can read is people complaining about the same problem but haven't seen Spotify do something about it for a couple of days... Fix the bugs Spotify please...

Same problem here and I'm not able to change the country from the profile. Help please.

I work I Hong Kong. I have a premium acct, but I've been away for a few weeks and now I can't access my Spotify. I'll be traveling back soon and want to use it, but I can't sign in. What do I do?

@Ctex11 what message do you get? where did you open your account? where are you now? 🙂

Hi! It logged me out and when I log in it says I've been away for more than
14 days (which I have). I'm in Zurich.

Are you sure you're logging with your Premium account username? Because Premium users do not get that message, only the Free ones.

 

Login to your account through the Spotify website, and check your subscription status.

 

But, try not to use facebook to login. Use the username on the email receipt you got when you paid for the service.
