Didn't know how the student discount worked and payed for it without verifying

I am an high school student i though it was for me as well i realized that it wasn't after paying for it. I immediately backed out of the verification page as i realized it and Spotify decided to keep my money and not give me anything what can i do

Hey @Thragg,

If Spotify is unable to verify your student I.D, you won’t be eligible to claim the student discount. In this instance, any charges will show on your statement as ‘pending’. This means your bank has put a temporary authorization on the funds, but no money has actually been taken.

Once the bank confirms your student I.D failed to verify successfully, the money will reappear on your statement. This can take up to 48 hours, depending on your bank. You can reach out to them for more information about any pending payments.
