Hi @Caro.Mark, hi @Jon M we are sorry to hear this is happening. The bug has been fixed quite some time ago. 

I just unlinked your accounts from Google+, unlinked all connected devices and sent you a password renewal link to your email address. Please click on the link in the email and enter a new password.

I would advise you to carry out the following steps in order to protect all your online accounts, not only Deezer:

  • Regularly scan your systems for malicious software
  • Avoid using the same password email combination for all online services
  • Change your password regularly and make sure it is a strong password combination
  • Use your email address as a login only
  • change other passwords (facebook and google)

Please let me know if you are still experiencing any further issues.

I've been getting this message both in the app and on my PC, even though I'm only using one device at a time. I've disconnected all devices in the settings, changed my password, tried playing music after that but it still gives the same error message after about 20 seconds of playing. What else can I do?

Hi - looking for help as getting no response from contacting Deezer. My account appears to have been hacked but only used to create playlists. I can’t play any music. There is no sign of another device attached. I’ve changed the password twice, signed out, deleted the apo and re-installed. Nothing makes any difference. Any ideas? I’m tied into contract so can’t cancel. Thanks.

I am having the exact same problem which started about 7 days ago as well. I have unlinked all devices and apps. @Rudi I would appreciate if you carry out the same maintenance on my account to make it useable immediately. Thanks!

Same problem here and I sign up using my Google account so I can't even change my password because I don't have a Deezer Password! I deleted the app reinstalled it signed out and in several times and I just can't listen to music on the app anymore...

Please let me know a working solution, otherwise I was thinking about Spotify for sometime anyway so this could be an opportunity for me switch...
