Search Failed - This search failed, please try again later

[fastandbulbous]

I've been a Spotify unlimited customer for years now and have just upgraded to premium.

I downloaded the iPhone app, logged in, but have been unable to use any of the functions. The What's New page is blank, and most annoyingly, every time I type something in the search box it tells me "Search Failed - This search failed, please try again later.

I've tried quitting and re-opening, deleting and re-installing, signing out and signing in...... everything.

And yes. I do have an internet connection. It doesn't work either on my superfast BT Infinity, or on my full 3G signal.

Can anyone help in any way please?

Or have I just got unlucky with my timing, and Spotify is actually down at the moment?

Thanks for your help everyone.

Thanks mate, I'll keep an eye on it over the next couple of hours and hopefully it'll sort itself out.
