Hey! 🙂 

Have you been in online mode on your device recently? 

Spotify requires you to connect to their servers at least once every 30 days to verify your subscription to continue using offline playlists.

Are you saying that the spotify app doesn't work on your iphone or that the premium features are missing? Please reinstall the app following these instructions and be sure to log in with the correct credentials. Shout if you still have problems.

"Won't work" isn't particularily helpful in diagnosing the problem. 

Are you getting an error message, if not can you describe what is happening when you try and play a track?

What error message are you getting?

Suddenly my Premium subscription on my iPhone won't play any track that I search or from my playlists, they're all grey. I checked the payment and it went through. What can be wrong?

Can you try killing the Spotify app and starting it again and/or rebooting your phone?

I killed the app and downloded a new one and loged in, but still the same problem...

Do you get a specific error message when you tap a track or does it just do nothing?

It says Premium required, but at my login page it says I have an ongoing subscription.

Hey rododendron, I've just taken a look at your account and it looks like you've started a new Premium subscription on a Facebook-connected account.

Get in touch here and one of our support team will be able to get that extra account deleted and get you set back up on your original one.

[MsVonE305]

No it is not playing !

I reinstalled the app twice I don't understand why

I've just checked your account and it seems you're currently on an Unlimited subscription. You'd need to upgrade to Premium to use Spotify on your iPhone, which you can do from your subscription page.
