How to delete Spotify account

Finally you have agreed with your family to share a subscription to Spotify Family, so now you do not know what to do with your old subscription and you are looking for a method to get rid of it permanently. Although this possibility is well hidden in the maze of the service pages, know that the possibility of eliminating Spotify accounts exists and that I am ready to explain it in today’s tutorial.

In reality there are two ways to proceed: the first, which provides for the deactivation of the service, allows you to cancel the automatic renewal of the Premium subscription to Spotify keeping the ability to access with your credentials (thus preserving tracks, playlists and preferences without paying a single euro). The second method, however, provides the total cancellation of the account from Spotify and the definitive loss of everything that has been set in the service (maintaining, however, the possibility of creating a new account from scratch in the future, should it be needed ).

You well evaluate the operation to be carried out according to your needs and, once the decision is made, cut out a few minutes to read all that I have to explain about the elimination of the Spotify account: I guarantee that you will reach your goal in very few click. The only premise that I want you to do is that, to complete the procedure, you will need to have access to the email address you registered with Spotify: if you do not remember the password, I invite you to consult my tutorial on how to recover email password for find her.

Have you decided not to delete your Spotify account, but to deactivate it so as not to prevent you from reactivating it later? Wise choice, because, as I mentioned at the beginning of the post, this way your preferences and your playlists will not be deleted: you will no longer pay the Premium subscription to Spotify and will cancel the automatic renewal, but you can still use the free service (with all the limitations of the case) and, if you want, subscribe again to the Premium version at a later time. In addition, by simply disabling the subscription, you will continue to benefit from Spotify Premium until its natural expiration.

You can deactivate your Spotify Premium account either from a computer using the browser or the program, or via smartphone or tablet: in a second I’ll explain how to do it in all cases.

To end the deactivation process, click on the Continue and Cancel my subscription button. Easier than that ?!

However, please note that if you have activated Spotify Premium through a telephone provider and make the payment via credit or directly on the invoice, the procedure to cancel the subscription changes completely: you must cancel the subscription directly from your page staff at the site of your manager.

For example, with regard to the Vodafone & Spotify promotion, you can deactivate the Spotify part by connecting to the operator’s website: access to the Do It Yourself area, select the entry for digital services and follow the instructions on the screen to proceed with deactivation of your subscription.

Attention: even in this case, the procedure completely changes if the subscription to Spotify Premium has been subscribed through a telephony operator, and the charge is made directly on telephone credit or on the invoice. If you find yourself in this situation, you need to access your personal page on the operator’s site, locate the digital service management menu and cancel the renewal of Spotify Premium from there. Alternatively, you can contact Customer Service, ask to speak with an operator (follow my tutorial if you do not know how to proceed) and explicitly ask for the service to be deactivated.
