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.

Hey @Docta13 

Please follow the password reset email I've sent you and reinstall the app to the latest version after changing the password. Then login as normal and let me know if it's ok ;)

Hi there @Andreas de Boer 

Sorry you've had this experience. I've sent a password reset email after some maintenance. So please change your password once more and try to login after reinstalling the app to the latest version ;)

Hello Deezer Team, 

Since few weeks I’m also facing the same issue… Please, can you clean, refresh everything for my account too? 

I’m using Premium and it’s really annoying. I’ve never changed any settings to my account…

 

Many thanks!

Hey @laura_btd 

No problem, all done for you. You should check for the password reset email I sent you and change your password straight away. Reinstall the app to the latest version and login with email, not FB :wink:

Hi there@yair Gat@Mynameduck@Dgbviper

Sorry that's happened. I've carried out some maintenance on your accounts. So please reinstall the app to the latest version and change your password. Login as normal and let me know if the issue persists.

Hey @Rudi , 2 days ago i installed the latest update for Deezer and this message has started popping up again. This is really frustrating when driving as i cannot unlock my phone and restart a playlist the same way I can when elsewhere. I have just changed my password again but I don't believe this is compromised.

Sorry about that @Dgbviper. I did have a look at your account again and sent another password reset email. Please try changing it once more, and give the app another reinstall to see if it works. Keep me posted!

Hi, I have a family account.

 

All four family members are with me in the room, no one else should have access. But when we each listen to Deezer, the music stops playing and a popup comes up saying the account is currently being used on another device.

I just changed my password but this still happened.

What should I do?

Thanks

Hi there @Langhit 

Sorry you're having issues. Thank you for your patience.

You should try changing the email address for the account as well, by logging in via desktop PC/Mac.

In the meantime, I've unlinked all devices from your account again and killed any active sessions as well. Change the password once more and let me know if the issue persists. You also need to log in using your email and password, and don't forget to update the app as well :thumbsup_tone2:
