    Is there a way I can get Spotify premium for free?
    Community Answer
    There is no way to get Spotify Premium for free. All those websites claiming that they will generate codes for you if you download a .exe will typically end up with your computer getting malware.
  • Question
    I already purchased Spotify Premium but it isn't showing up on my account, what should I do?
    Community Answer
    Check your subscription page -- your status should be Premium. If you're on Premium, try signing out and back into the app. If it says Free, check the receipt the company emailed you Make sure that you're signing in with the username on that receipt. If the username on your receipt is a 10-digit number, sign in with your Facebook login details. It is also possible that you have two accounts, so that's something to check further too. If this fails to help, contact the company.
