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.

Hello, everytime i’m on deezer it says that someone is using my account at the time, but i’m the only one listening to it. I’ve tried linking my parents phone’s cause there are only 3 devices allowed. But it’s still happening. Someone is using my account listening to german music and putting them in my favourites .. please help me.. otherwise i need to stop listening to deezer..

Hi there @Jessicahindriks

Sorry to hear about that. I've checked your account on our side and did the following: unlinked all devices and Google login and sent you a password reset email. Please change your password to a strong one and login again, using your email and not Google. Let me know if it helps 😉

Hey, it’s still happening. There are strange songs put in the favourites list.. i removed the device (weisses iphone) but after that the favourites list keeps getting updated. It’s really frustrating that someone is using my account while i’m paying for it and can’t listen myself

Recently, I've been getting a warning that I can't use deezer in 2 devices (which I'm not) and i've noticed some playlist that wasn't me who listened to.
I've tried to change my password but it says it cant be changed. Help! ASAP!

Hi there @manoelabrienza

Sorry to hear that. I've unlinked your connected devices, Facebook login, and sent you a password reset email. Please change your password and login directly with your email address, not Facebook. It should work but if it doesn't, let me know 😉

Hi Rudy,

Thanks for doing that!
I've changed my password today, in the morning, but in the afternoon it happened again! Same message (print attached), and again history of albums that weren't me... :(

Hi @manoelabrienza

That's odd. Before we move forward with this, could you try the following steps, exactly in this order, to see if it helps with your issue?

  • make sure you're connected to a wifi network
  • uninstall Deezer
  • clean your phone's cache
  • remove the SD card
  • turn off your phone
  • reinstall Deezer
  • open Deezer and download at least one album or playlist
  • reinsert the SD card

Hi, I've been getting these annoying messages that my account is been used on another device or page, I've closed all devices and pages already, and unlinked all devices, but still get the message which stops the music I'm listening to.

This is happening on my Android device as well as my PC. Please help me correct this, I'm getting to the point to consider not using Deezer anymore, this is too annoying!.
